PC: ‘Why Would You Use Anything Else?’

 

J. David Schmelzer of Waynesboro, Penn. is a die-hard AMSOIL fan.

“I have been an AMSOIL Preferred Customer for about 20 years, and I am convinced that AMSOIL is the best provider of lubrication products at any price for any purpose,” Schmelzer said. “I have used AMSOIL products for gas-powered automobiles and light trucks with excellent results from the heat of Tennessee summers to the cold of Pennsylvania winters.” Schmezel installs AMSOIL products in all of his motorized equipment.

“I have used AMSOIL products in the cooling systems, engine lubrication, automatic transmissions, diff erentials, transfer cases and everywhere there is a grease fitting — even some places there wasn’t,” Schmelzer said.

“I will be a loyal AMSOIL customer until somebody has to pry my wrench from my cold, dead hands.”

His wife’s Dodge Grand Caravan has been running with AMSOIL 5W-20 Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil and air filters, and cooling system protection since they purchased the vehicle in 2010.

“My lawnmowers and tractor, “pressure washer, leaf/limb chipper shredder and snowblower are all using AMSOIL 4-stroke synthetic motor oil,” Schmelzer said.

Schmelzer uses AMSOIL European Formula Diesel (AEL) Oil in his 2014 Ram 1500 Ecodiesel truck.

“Even at the end of the mileage for oil change interval (10,000), I am still nearly at the full line on the dipstick,” Schmelzer said. “I get the full advertised fuel economy for the entire oil change interval with no crazy modifications to either my truck or my personal driving style.”

He adds AMSOIL Diesel Cetane Boost to diesel fuel and Gasoline Fuel Stabilizer to smaller gas-engine fuels for peak performance, he said.

“My John Deere mower is a 1990 model, and has had nothing done to the engine except for two new spark plugs and a new air filter,” Schmelzer said. “Why would you use anything else?”

He also uses other AMSOIL products. “I use AMSOIL Firearm Cleaner and Protector to protect my precious weapons collection,” Schmelzer said.

Not only does he like AMSOIL products, his experience with AMSOIL customer service has been top notch, as well.

“I have contacted AMSOIL Technical Services Department on occasion for advice and I received prompt, professional and courteous replies from a real person.”

“O will be a loyal AMSOIL customer until somebody has to pry my wrench from my cold, dead hands,” he said.
