motor oil,but he 's concerned that using a synthetic oil or extending his oil drain interval will void his warranty. This person has no need for concern.Congress in 1975 enacted the federal Magnuson-Moss Act to regulate written consumer product warranties.An examination of the law reveals warranties remain intact when AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants are used. The law was meant to give consumers detailed information about warranty coverage before they buy. Congress charged the Federal Trade Commission with creation of the specifics of the law. The FTC set down three rules under the Act:the Disclosure Rule,the Pre-Sale Availability Rule and the Dispute Resolution Rule. Those rules require warrantors to _title_ their written warranty as either full or limited, provide a single,clear and easy-to-read document that spells out certain information about coverage and ensure that war- ranties are available where the products are sold so that consumers can read them before buying. In passing the Act,Congress meant to give con- sumers access to warranty information,let consumers comparison shop for warranties,encourage warranty competition and promote timely and complete per- formance of warranty obligations. While the Magnuson-Moss Act does not require manufacturers to provide a written warranty,it pro- vides specific rules when one is provided. Among those provisions, FTC regulations state: (c)No warrantor of a consumer product may con- dition his written or implied warranty of such prod- uct on the consumer 's using,in connection with such product,any article or service (other than arti- cle or service provided without charge under the terms of the warranty)which is identified by brand, trade,or corporate name;except that the prohibition of this subsection may be waived by the Commission if - ((1)the warrantor satisfies the Commission that the warranted product will function properly only if the article or service so identified is used in connec- tion with the warranted product,and (2)the Commission finds that such a waiver is in the public interest. ((42 U.S.C.2302(C)) That means your warranty stands when you use AMSOIL Synthetic Lubricants. Vehicle manufacturers recommend lubricants according to their viscosity grade and service classi .- cation. Any oil,whether it 's conventional petroleum motor oil or synthetic,meeting the correct viscosity grade,5W-30 for example,and the current API SL and ILSAC GF-3 North American service classifications may be used without affecting warranty coverage. AMSOIL motor oils are recommended for use in appli- cations requiring these specifications. Furthermore,the practice of extending oil drain intervals does not void warranties. Original equipment manufacturers pay or deny warranty claims _base_d on the findings of failure analysis.To affect the vehicle warranty,the lubricant must be directly responsible for the failure .If the oil didn't cause the problem the warranty cannot be voided,regardless of brand or length of time in use. Synthetic motor oil was introduced to the automotive public in 1972 by AMSOIL,INC.,with the world 's first API rated synthetic motor oil - specially formulated for long service and superior per- formance and protection to that of conventional oils. Nearly 30 years ago,AMSOIL synthetics repre- sented a vision of the future and technology ahead of their time.Since then,every major engine oil man- ufacturer has introduced synthetic oils of their own. To be sure,many original equipment manufac- turers would like you to believe you can only use their products. However,it 's a violation of the consumer protections set forth in the Magnuson-Moss Act, unless they 're willing to provide you those products free of charge. AMSOIL offers a warranty that covers the cost of repair or replacement of a proven mechanically sound engine damaged as a result of using AMSOIL syn- thetic motor oil.However,it has never happened. Thirty years of experience proves AMSOIL can be installed in any vehicle with complete confidence. AMSOIL further backs its products with action when anyone reports being told their warranty is voided if they use synthetics. If you have heard from any member of a business that the use of AMSOIL Motor Oil or the practice of extending drain intervals will void warranties,send AMSOIL all the details including the name of the business,business owner or manager and the indi- vidual making the claims,in a signed and dated letter.Send the letter to the Technical Services Department at corporate headquarters and an AMSOIL representative will send them a letter explaining the facts. Access to the complete Magnuson-Moss Act is available on the Internet by key words Magnuson- Moss Act or Federal Trade Commission. No warrantor of a consumer product may condition his written or implied war- ranty of such product on the consumer 's using,in connection with such product, any article or service (other than article or service provided without charge under the terms of the warranty)which is iden- tified by brand,trade,or corporate name; United States Code,_title_ 15, Chapter 50,Section 2302 (c) Michael .

I refuse to have anything to do with any product that is in anyway associated with the Amway Corporation!!!!! Amway is just another multi-level marketing company. Some people actually make money with them but most don't. If you are trying to sell Amway, you are a poor mis-guided soul. One plus for you, you are trying to sell the product instead of trying to recruit other people. In order to make big money with Amway, you have to establish a down line of people below you. Usually, only people who buy Amway are the people who sell Amway. I think you have been misled. I wouldn't care if this oil really was the absolute best thing on the market, I would shy away from it because it is associated with Amway. Hawk it if you must. You probably had to spend some cash for a dealer's packet and you need to get back your investment. Good luck. You poor mis-guided soul. Please if someone offers, don't buy the Golden Gate Bridge or ocean front property in Arizona.

investment. Good luck. You poor mis-guided soul. Please if someone offers, don't buy the Golden Gate Bridge or ocean front property in Arizona. This Amway thing is real news to me. I absolutely, 100% agree with you on their business methods. Those at the top will prosper while those on the middle to bottom will fracture from the load...but, they are easily replaced. I've had relatives and friends who've given Amway a try. None of them lasted more than a few months and each and every one of them became a royal pest. I don't care how much money is to be had, it isn't worth if my friends and family were to flip off the light switches and make believe they weren't home if I was to pull up in front of their house (which is what I'd do on the receiving end). On the other hand...there are two things. First, myself having expereinced Amway via friends or family who've given them a try in order to make the huge bucks they promise, I've purchased a few Amway products. To this day I can't say I've been disappointed with any of them. All worked extremely well. They didn't and couldn't work, however, well enough for me to continue buying them and suffereing through the inevitable sales pitch of why I should stop being just and end user and join the Amway team and make myself rich. Turning friends and family from my door was not fun and I wasn't at all eager to step into their soiled shoes. In my opinion...Amway is a scam. Now the second part. I can't find evidence that Amsoil is Amway. Do you have this evidence? Can you point me in the right direction? I feel this is absolutely fantastic oil, but if'n it's Amway....there must be a better way. Brian

Brian, I have seen references in other places to some association between Amyway and Amsoil, but I can't produce one right now. I did however find a _link_ to a company who will set you up as a dealer in their multi-level marketing program http://www.syntheticoil1.com/ You can sell oil, or vitamins, or cleaning products ect. Sound familiar???
