Has anyone used this system either with or without their Amsoil 15-40W
marine diesel oil in a turbo diesel? I seek research, experience and
opinions on the issue.

I always ask the same question of every Amsoil thread....

Where is the REFINERY? Noone can find it, yet. Amsoil has a bottling
plant...but WHERE'S THE REFINERY. Amsoil is owned by a slick ex-air force
fighter pilot, an expert in the field of organic chemistry...no,
wait....and expert in the field of MARKETING....that's better...

Try to find his oil filter factory. It must be a big building, not the
little warehouse behind their offices. Another repackaging scam?

Diesel oil has oil company names on the can, like Shell Rotella T or
Chevron Velo 400. Ask any trucker whos truck hasn't been overhauled just
because there's 600,000 miles on the clock. Shell and Chevron refineries
are easy to find. They're great big things!

Yamalube, at $30/gallon at your dealer, is just Chevron TC-W3, by the way.
Yamaha doesn't have a refinery, either...(c;

If you buy diesel fuel outside the US, you can get some Really Bad
Stuff. You can go through a large number of filters, approaching
infinity. Having multiple filters of varying particle sizes can help in
that situation.

Can't speak for Amsoil - IIRC they make it from scratch vs extracting
(refining) it from crude.

In any event there are very few refineries making many many brands of oil,
each one custom blended and refined for its seller. There is no
Harley-Davidson Refinery for example - they instead had a refinery make up a
very special additive package needed to deal with a unique problem affecting
iron-cylinder "Shovelhead" and earlier engines. Took them 240 long-term dyno
tests to find it. It was definately better than automobile oils *in that
application*. Owners who didn't believe that overhauled their top ends
anually and sometimes had valves stick open and hit pistons at idle.

someone else makes it cheaper, Sears will simply buy from them, just like

The best solution for that situation is to not use diesel
fuel in the
crankcase sump!

All I can find about them in Superior is a building that has a bottling
plant in it. ONE building. Oil refineries are great big places with
towers and stink and fires. What's it made in, one quart at a time in a
lab? Why does their website show some guy filling a 55 gallon drum BY
HAND? How many can he do a day??

The Amsoil website lists their address as 2206 Winter St.

Copied from their "Distribution Sites":
Superior, WI
2206 Winter St
Superior, WI 54880
--mailing address--
AMSOIL Building
Superior, WI 54880
Mon, Tue, Wed, Fri
8am-4:30pm
Thursday 8am-8:30pm
Closed on Sat, Sun & statutory holidays
715-392-7101
FAX: 715-392-7252



Mapquest shows 2206 Winter St, Superior WI as being right dead center in
the middle of the railroad yard with lots of tracks crossing Winter St
which crosses the railroad tracks, there. No place for a huge chemical
plant, oil refinery and all those pipes.

Their lack of a plant stinks worse than their oil....or whoever's oil it
is....

Now, here's something even MORE curious. When I look for businesses on
Winter St in Superior, WI, I get this AT THAT ADDRESS!

Dolly Madison - More Info / Map
2206 Winter St, Superior, WI 54880
Category: Bakeries

This data comes from:
http://superior.areaconnect.com/restaurants/

The phone company lists 3 numbers for Amsoil in Superior. One is:
925 Tower Ave, which is in a block between Winter St and Broadway St. No
place for an oil refinery in one city block downtown. This seems to be the
location for the infamous "Amsoil Building". It's an office building.



Do you think Dolly Madison lets them bottle it in the bakery and ship it
from their train spur?!

There are no other addresses on the phone company websites than Tower
Avenue. Amsoil doesn't have a phone in their name over at Dolly Madison's
bakery on Winter St in the railroad yard.

Same sidestepped question.....WHERE'S THE REFINERY AND CHEMICAL PLANTS?
All I'm asking for is the location, the address of this huge oil refinery.
it's not in Superior, Wisconsin. If it were, I'm sure it would have a
TELEPHONE and the Superior Chamber of Commerce would know where something
that BIG was located....
