OE What does that stand for? I am not aware of anything less expensive than the XL line.......

AMSOIL Reformulates XL Synthetic Oils with Extended Drain Boost
AMSOIL announces the reformulation of its Extended Life XL Synthetic Motor Oils, now available in four
different viscosities with a bold new packaging design. The new XL oils contain Extended Drain Boost for
longer service life in keeping with the lengthening oil change intervals of newer cars. XL has been
formulated to meet the more stringent ILSAC GF‐5 and API SN service categories and offers better
engine protection for reduced maintenance costs in gasoline engines.
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils employ an extra treatment of alkaline additives added to premium
synthetic base stocks to neutralize acids. The extra additive package effectively raises the total base
number (TBN) and resists shear to provide superior performance throughout the entire drain interval of
up to 10,000 miles or six months, whichever comes first.
Fuel efficient AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils provide better fuel economy compared to conventional
motor oils.
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are also friendly toward modern emission control systems and help
maintain low emissions. Thermal breakdown effects including evaporation and viscosity loss are also
significantly reduced, while providing excellent hot and cold engine protection.
AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are available in SAE 5W‐20, 5W‐30, 10W‐30 and 10W‐40 viscosities in
quarts, gallons, 30‐ and 55‐gallon drums and 275 gallon totes.
