HP Marine Synthetic 2-Stroke Oil


  • Excellent for Evinrude® E-TEC™ factory-lean setting (replaces Evinrude XD100™ 2-Cycle Oil)
  • Helps prevent deposits
  • Protects against wear
  • Low smoke
  • Protects against rust
  • Low aquatic toxicity
  • Superior performance as an injection oil or at 50:1 pre-mix
High-quality motor oil is critical for maximum performance in modern two-cycle marine motors. Direct fuel injection (DFI) improves combustion efficiency, delivering the extra power enthusiasts want, while leaner gas-to-oil ratios provide the reduced exhaust emissions the government mandates. The leaner ratio leaves less oil to lubricate and protect these hotter, more powerful motors, which invites deposits and wear that threaten engine performance and life. HP Marine is proven to excel in these harsh challenges. It controls performance-robbing friction, heat and wear, yet produces low smoke and has low aquatic toxicity properties. It's an oil as advanced as the engines it protects.

Outstanding Wear Protection
The elevated heat and friction of modern two-cycle marine motors can exceed the film strength of inferior oils, increasing the likelihood of scuffing and wear. HP Marine's exclusive synthetic formulation provides increased lubricity for reduced wear during normal and lean-mix operation (see field study results). In 534 hours of field testing, HP Marine completely prevented piston skirt and cylinder bore scuffing, demonstrating its superior lubricity and ability to reduce friction between moving parts. It maintains a strong lubricating film even in lean-mix, severe-service conditions, helping marine engines achieve maximum life.

Excellent Deposit Control
HP Marine is formulated with MAXDOSE™, a system of advanced additives for "super-clean" operation. It helps prevent deposits that lead to poor performance. In field testing, HP Marine inhibited ring deposits that can cause ring sticking and ring jacking (carbon build-up behind the ring, forcing it outward), a phenomenon that occurs in modern DFI outboard motors. It also virtually eliminated exhaust port deposits for reliable, efficient operation.

Proven in Marine E-TEC Field Study
HP Marine was installed in a 250-hp Evinrude E-TEC engine powering a heavy-duty marine rescue vessel. Following a 28-hour break-in period at the normal oil setting, the engine was programmed to its factory-lean setting and operated for 506 hours prior to disassembly. An ASTM calibrated rater examined and awarded each component either a merit rating on a scale of 0 to 10 (with 10 representing no distress) or a percentage rating (with 0 percent representing no distress). Results prove HP Marine provided exceptional wear protection and deposit control. For complete study results, visit amsoil.com/proof

PRODUCTS THE PROS USE: My AMSOIL Garage

AMSOIL-sponsored race teams rely on AMSOIL products to get them to the finish line, whether that be on the track or simply getting to the race. Teams are made up of more than just the rider and the race vehicle; additional support is needed from the crew, haulers and pit vehicles. AMSOIL has an online tool that stores vehicle information and facilitates easy product recommendation and ordering. AMSOIL Racing sat down with Internet Services Manager Dewey Asbach to discuss the MyAMSOILGarage™ feature on www.amsoil.com and see how it benefits racers.

AMSOIL Racing: What is MyAMSOILGarage?

Dewey Asbach: MyAMSOILGarage originally launched as a supplement to the AMSOIL Auto & Light-Truck Application Guide. It provides a virtual “garage” in which users store all their vehicle's information so they don't have to re-enter it each time they want to determine which AMSOIL products they need. Users can also track oil and filter changes and establish email oil change reminders. Since it was launched, MyAMSOILGarage has been expanded to allow users to store information for virtually any vehicle, including motorcycles, heavy-duty trucks, lawn equipment and more. You can also set it up to track additional maintenance services such as belt changes, brake work or tires. It has really become a complete vehicle and equipment maintenance software program.
AR: Sounds like you've thought of everything.
DA: The system works well, but we are always working on improvements. We are currently streamlining the account-creation process for new users and making some changes that should make the service even better for our existing users. We are targeting early 2012 for the release of the first series of small upgrades.

AR: How can this tool benefit racers?

DA: Occasionally our Race Program Manager, Jeremy Meyer, manages to convince me to get away from my computer for a while and take in some of our sponsored racing events. The shows are always exciting, but what amazes me most is how much activity is centered around the equipment we fans never even get to see out on the track. These teams are in charge of maintenance for a multitude of equipment behind the scenes. Large teams have everything from massive hauler rigs and motor homes to smaller pit vehicles like ATVs and motorcycles – not to mention all of those smaller motors in things like compressors and generators. Even the smallest racing operation will often have a tow vehicle and trailer to maintain. If your passion is racing, the last thing you want keeping you out of the action is a breakdown of your support equipment, so keeping everything maintained is critical. MyAMSOILGarage can email you reminders when it is time for maintenance on anything you want to track and will have the products you used last time right at your fingertips. It’s a great way to keep maintenance under control so you won’t miss a race and your equipment gets the protection it needs.

How to Be an Environmentally Conscious Motorist

How to Be an Environmentally Conscious Motorist (5 Tips)


1. Practice safe extended drain intervals. 3,000 mile oil changes are a thing of the past, and using

AMSOIL synthetic oils will protect your engine, increase performance and reduce the amount of

waste oil produced. Be sure, also, that the oil change facility you use recycles used oil regularly and legally.

2. Keep your tires properly inflated. Tires should be inflated to the pressure recommended for your vehicle (this information can either be found inside the door frame or in the owner’s manual).

For every 3 pounds tires are below recommended pressure, fuel economy goes down by about 1

percent. Tires can lose about 1 pound of pressure in a month, so be sure to check the air

pressure regularly, especially before carrying heavy loads or taking long trips. Underinflated tires

can also detract from handling and safety, and can shorten the life of the tires.

3. Don’t forget about your engine’s air filter. A high‐quality air filter, like AMSOIL Ea Air Filters,

can, if properly maintained, increase power, prolong engine life and improve fuel economy.

Also, air filters with a longer life help the environment by reducing the volume of filters that end

up in landfills.

4. Optimize your route. By planning the route in advance, you can save time and gas and reduce the total cost of travel. In addition, route optimization reduces overall CO2 and other emissions your vehicle emits.

5. Use a fuel additive that is good for you, and for Mother Nature. AMSOIL Performance Improver

(P.i.) improves fuel mileage an average of 2.3% and up to 5.7% while reducing emissions such as

hydrocarbons (HC) up to 15%, carbon monoxide (CO) up to 26% and nitrous oxides (NOx) up to 17%.
 

10,000 Mile Oil Change

AMSOIL XL Extended Life Synthetic Motor Oils provide better wear control, high- and low-temperature protection and increased fuel economy compared to conventional oils. Formulated with extended-drain boost technology, AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils provide superior performance for up to 10,000-miles/six months, or longer when recommended in owner’s manuals or indicated by electronic oil life monitoring systems.


AMSOIL, the leader in automotive synthetic lubrication, produced the world’s first API-qualified synthetic motor oil in 1972. Trust the extensive experience of AMSOIL, the First in Synthetics®, to do the best job protecting your engine.

Extended-Drain Boost Technology

During normal engine operation, the combustion process creates acidic by-products that can lead to internal component corrosion and a reduction in the life expectancy of the engine oil and engine itself. Formulated with extended-drain boost technology, AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils employ high-quality synthetic base stocks and a unique additive chemistry to neutralize acids longer than conventional oils. The extra additive package effectively raises the Total Base Number (TBN), a measure of an oil’s useful service life, and provides superior protection and performance throughout the entire drain interval.

Lower Maintenance Costs

Cost-conscious motorists, business owners and fleet managers benefit from the extended drain intervals and wear protection of AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils. While frequent oil changes are expensive, time consuming and inconvenient, longer drain intervals reduce costs and environmental impact, while increased wear control can reduce maintenance costs. With AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils, motorists realize the convenience and cost savings of extended drain intervals while also providing vehicles with maximum protection.

Improve Fuel Economy

Formulated with friction modifiers, AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are fuel-efficient oils that reduce friction-related energy loss. They provide better fuel economy compared to conventional, non-fuel-efficient motor oils.

Maintain Low Emissions

AMSOIL XL Synthetic Motor Oils are friendly toward modern emissions control systems, promoting proper operation of catalytic converters for optimum service life and low exhaust emissions.

Hot- and Cold-Engine Protection
