The anticipation and adrenaline of catching your limit is tough to beat. A bad day of fishing beats a good day at work, but subpar engine performance or malfunction can ruin any day on the lake. As the technology used in today’s marine applications has evolved, AMSOIL has remained ahead of the curve in performance and protection with products formulated to deliver clean engine performance and control harmful deposits, wear and rust.
Engine performance and reliability are keys to spending more time on the water. However, marine engines operate under high loads for extended periods and face constant exposure to wet environments. The extreme combination of high-rpm engine operation and water invites premature engine wear and corrosion that can reduce engine performance, damage engine components and eventually cause catastrophic engine failure.
On average, a gas-powered marine engine runs at about 5,000 rpm to power a boat at 26 knots (30 mph). In contrast, an automotive engine powering a car 60 mph runs at about 2,000 rpm. The higher temperatures and mechanical stress in marine engines cause inferior oils to break down and lose viscosity faster. Moisture also causes rust, which acts like sandpaper on engine parts, scouring bearings, the cylinder wall, piston rings and other components, while corrosion eats away at aluminum pistons and other parts.
