As the days grow shorter and the temperature plummets, truck owners across the country face a common challenge: preparing their vehicles for the harsh realities of winter. Winter weather can wreak havoc on your truck, from freezing engines to reduced fuel efficiency. But fear not because there's a reliable ally in your quest to conquer the cold – AMSOIL. AMSOIL, a trusted name in synthetic lubricants and automotive products, has a lineup of high-quality solutions designed to safeguard your truck during winter. This comprehensive guide will take you through the essential steps to winterize a truck effectively using a range of AMSOIL products.

Step 1: Gather Your Supplies

Before you embark on the winterization journey, it's essential to have all the necessary supplies and AMSOIL products ready. Here's a list of essential items you'll need:

• AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil
• AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid
• AMSOIL Diesel Cold Flow Improver (for diesel engines)
• AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Antifreeze & Coolant
• AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease
• Oil filter wrench
• Funnel
• Drain pan
• Jack and jack stands (if necessary)
• Gloves and safety glasses

Step 2: Check Your Truck's Owner's Manual

To ensure that you're using the right products and specifications for your truck's make and model, consult your truck's owner's manual. The manual provides valuable information regarding recommended oil viscosity, transmission fluid, and other specifications necessary for winter driving. By following the manufacturer's guidelines, you can make informed decisions when selecting the appropriate AMSOIL products for your vehicle.

With the right preparation and care, your truck will be ready to conquer winter's toughest conditions. Call TenEyck Distributing in Saint George at (208) 589-4660 and discover the best products to stay safe and enjoy worry-free winter driving with AMSOIL.

Step 3: Change the Oil and Oil Filter

Cold weather can cause engine oil to thicken, making it less effective at lubricating engine components. To counter this issue, it's crucial to replace your current oil and filter with AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil and an AMSOIL oil filter designed for your truck.

Follow These Steps for an Oil Change

1. Safely lift your truck using a jack and secure it with jack stands.
2. Locate the oil drain plug and remove it, allowing the old oil to drain into the pan.
3. Remove the old oil filter using an oil filter wrench.
4. Install the new AMSOIL oil filter according to the manufacturer's instructions.
5. Replace the oil drain plug.
6. Use a funnel to pour the recommended amount of AMSOIL Signature Series Synthetic Motor Oil into your engine.

Step 4: Check and Top Up Transmission Fluid

Proper transmission fluid levels are essential to ensure your truck's transmission operates smoothly in cold weather. Check the transmission fluid level and condition according to your owner's manual. If needed, top up the transmission fluid with AMSOIL Synthetic Automatic Transmission Fluid, as this formula is designed to maintain performance in low temperatures and won't fail in doing so.

Step 5: Add Diesel Cold Flow Improver

If your truck has a diesel engine, you must prevent fuel gelling in frigid temperatures. To address this issue, add AMSOIL Diesel Cold Flow to your fuel tank as per the product's instructions. This additive improves the cold flow properties of diesel fuel, ensuring your engine continues to run smoothly even in subzero conditions.

Step 6: Inspect and Top Up Coolant

Maintaining the proper coolant level and quality is a crucial step to winterize a truck. Check the coolant level and condition, and if necessary, top it up with AMSOIL Heavy-Duty Antifreeze & Coolant. This high-quality coolant provides exceptional protection against freezing and corrosion, ensuring your engine stays cool and functional in extreme cold.

Step 7: Lubricate Moving Parts

Cold temperatures can cause moving parts of your truck to become stiff or freeze, affecting their functionality. This is when grease comes into play to provide excellent low-temperature performance, ensuring your truck's components remain operational in harsh winter conditions.

Step 8: Tire Maintenance

Your truck's tires play a critical role in winter safety. Check the tire pressure regularly and maintain it according to your truck's specifications. Additionally, consider switching to winter tires for improved traction in snow and icy conditions. Winter tires have specialized tread patterns and rubber compounds designed to provide better grip on slippery surfaces, enhancing your truck's stability and safety during winter driving.

Use AMSOIL Synthetic Multi-Purpose Grease to get your truck winter-ready and lubricate essential moving parts such as door hinges, locks, and chassis.
