MY AMSOIL STORY

How did I get involved with AMSOIL? Well let me tell you something, If you would have told me in the spring of 2007 that I would be selling AMSOIL lubrication products I would have told you that you were CRAZY. I had heard about AMSOIL products back In high school, I graduated in 1976. I have always heard good reports on their products and always wanted to try them for one reason or another I never was able to do that or find were to buy it. I was approached last summer in 2007 and was given a DVD to watch entitled the SUM OF ITS PARTS << watch it here I was once again very impressed with the company, and knew that I needed to use these products. I am a collector of Wheel Horse Lawn & Garden Tractors, and I had just purchased one on    E-Bay and It was located in North Carolina, so I had a long trip to make from Michigan to pick this tractor up. So before the long trip  there were a few things that needed to be done on my 1998 Jeep Grand Cherokee. I needed to get a tune up, Oil change, and a brake job. I knew I didn't want to get in the mountains in North Carolina with weak brakes. After all the work was performed My mechanic and I went on a test drive the brakes were fine but I asked him about a ticking sound which sounded like a bad lifter, he said he had heard that tapping noise on many Chryslers and not to be concerned, he then said I had more concerns with a growl he heard in the rear end. Yes I replied I had been hearing that too! I asked him how much that would cost for repair and the answer was between $600.00 to $800.00 what needed to be done was new bearings in the rear end. We went back to his shop and we checked the fluid level and all was fine. I told him that I would schedule that repair at a later date, he said that I had between 6 months and a year before it would get really bad.

So two days later on a Thursday in September 2007 off I went to North Carolina to pick up this tractor. I stopped on the way to Indianapolis In. to pick up a friend of mine to make the journey with me. When I was about 30 miles north of his home, the engine in my Jeep sounded like it was coming un-done, I mean so bad that I would wonder If I would even make it. I arrived at my friends home and he made a statement like "Boy That Sounds Healthy" Yeah I said, how do ya like that! Guess you should have got that AMSOIL!! (His brother was the dealer who sent me the DVD). His question was are we still going? I replied yes I need to pick up that tractor after all the gentleman in North Carolina was nice enough to store it for me for a month in which time I could make plans to pick it up. So the next morning off we went towards Tennessee were we would spend the evening at a friend of mines home. We arrived in Tennessee Friday evening and my friends mechanic buddy took a look at my truck, after examining the situation he made the prognosis that it wasn't a lifter I was hearing but rather a broken Wrist Pin on the connecting rod and the piston! I asked him what was the chances of me making it back to Michigan? His was reply was 50/50! Great like I needed to here that :(

The next day Saturday we picked up the tractor Engine hammering all the way. You talk about a sick feeling in my stomach the whole way, being that far from home with a failing vehicle is not my Idea of an enjoyable trip! That Saturday night we stayed in Tennessee and the next morning we took off for home. Twelve hours later after dropping my friend off in Indy I made it back home engine rattling worse than ever. Since this was my daily driver I needed to either replace the vehicle or get the engine fixed. The next day bright and early I was at my mechanics doorstep bright and early I removed the valve cover and sure enough the sound was definitely not coming from the upper valve train and he agreed that he would have to agree with the prognosis given by the mechanic in Tennessee. My question to him was what do you think? His reply to me was Bob you have a vehicle with close to 170,000 miles on it, you know what I think! Its either replacement of the vehicle or a new engine! He called for a price on a new Jasper Engine.. After careful consideration I decided to go that route of Installing a New engine because everything else on the vehicle was in good shape. So I had my mechanic order the new engine. After all, after going through such a battle on this trip I had even grown further attached to Ole' Bessie, Her an I have had some great times together.

Immediately after ordering the new engine I went home and called AMSOIL and signed up as a 1 year Preferred Customer Cost $ 20.00 this allowed me to purchase products at wholesale cost, I then ordered everything for my Jeep Grand Cherokee from front to rear, a case of engine oil, 4 EAO42 oil filters, a case of ATF Transmission Oil and Wix Filter, a case of severe gear rear end grease my thought was since I decided to keep this vehicle I might as well protect my investment the best I could. I sat and pondered that evening on what may I have done to prevent this from happening? I received my shipment from AMSOIL two days later on a Wednesday, the engine was already in my Jeep and I took my new fluids down to my mechanic that evening. I had picked up a case of  Valvoline oil and since I had planned to do a couple quick changes with my AMSOIL EAO42 filters I would do a change at 250 and at 500 then switch to the AMSOIL at 1,000 miles.

When I picked up my vehicle that Friday and went on a test drive I noticed that the Transmission shifted much smoother. A week later he gave it another oil change (I usually put 250 miles on my truck a week) and then two weeks later after that at 1,000 miles we switched the engine over to AMSOIL. Right away I noticed how smooth the engine ran with AMSOIL! I then noticed that my RPM's at idle picked up from 750 at idle to 850 an increase of 100 RPM. I thought about that for a moment and decided that there was definitely less friction. I then ended up setting the idle down to compensate and to reduce my idle back down to 750 RPM. The final thing I noticed a week later which would now be a month into this was I remembered that I needed to get my vehicle back in to get that rear end looked at................... Wait a minute!!!! where's... that growl.... I used to hear? Immediately off went the vehicles heater fan, rolled up the windows, and the stereo were turned off... And I listened! No more noise in the rear end! I then called my mechanic and told him that I had something to show him. That evening after work I took him for a test drive, and he couldn't believe it himself. Like me he was shocked and made some kind of statement like I would have never believed it if I hadn't seen it myself!

That evening I called my up-line Dealer Dan and we discussed the course of events that had happened. I told him that I was defiantly satisfied and how much would it be to become a dealer? He said the cost would be $ 10.00 more per year to become a dealer than a preferred customer. Well to me this was a small price! "After All" I love products that work, and do what they claim! If I can help someone make their vehicles last using AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants then that alone makes me feel good. I have now been a dealer for 6 months and became T-1 Certified which is taking a test on AMSOIL products and knowing their lubrication lines. They are an excellent reputable company to do business with and are top notch in my book. If you want to protect your vehicle or maybe are looking for extra income, you would be doing yourself a favor to get yourself Involved with this company. If you ever decide to be a dealer I will personally train you and show you the Ins and outs of this business. I have done many tests myself on their products, have sold them to my friends and family, and I have received nothing but good reports back. They say satisfied customers make good dealers! You can add my name to that list. There is a BIG DIFFERENCE in Lubrication Products believe it! What was I using in my old engine and the vehicle before I switched to AMSOIL? MOBIL-1 "So They Say Nothing Outperforms Mobil-1"  WRONG! AMSOIL was the first in Synthetics since 1972 when Al Amatuzio introduced Synthetics to the Automobile Consumer Industry, and has the best ASTM ratings of all Synthetic Lubrication products in the World!
