AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil is recommended for use wherever SAE 10W-40 motor oil is specified in air and water-cooled four-stroke motorized scooter engines, transmissions and gearboxes that require the following:
• API SG, SL/CF
• JASO MA/MA2 (motorcycle wet clutch)
• ISO-L-EMA2

Service Life
Follow the equipment manufacturer's recommended drain intervals.
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke 10W-40 Synthetic Scooter Oil is formulated specifically to meet the special needs of today's high-tech air and water-cooled four-stroke motorized scooters, offering outstanding wear protection and friction reduction for longer equipment life and cooler operating temperatures. Its exceptional shear stability provides consistent viscosity protection and additional protection for transmissions and gearboxes, while its friction-modifier-free formulation ensures wet-clutch compatibility and smooth clutch operation. A special anti-corrosion additive package provides long-term protection during periods of inactivity and storage.
High engine rpm common to scooter applications increases shear, causing conventional lubricants to lose viscosity and reduce their ability to control wear, resulting in shorter engine life. The synthetic formulation of Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil effectively resists shear, delivering consistent viscosity protection for outstanding wear protection and extended equipment life.
The operating temperatures of scooter engines fluctuate greatly, especially with air-cooled engines. Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil resists breakdown at elevated temperatures, maintaining its protective viscosity for maximum wear control.
In many scooter applications, the engine and transmission and/or gear box share the same oil reservoir. Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil is absolutely shear stable and will not thin out from mechanical activity, providing superior protection for transmissions and gear boxes.
Some scooters utilize a frictional clutch to engage and disengage the engine from the drivetrain. In many cases, this clutch is immersed in the same oil used in the engine and transmission. Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil contains no friction modifiers and is wet clutch compatible, offering smooth clutch operation and increased clutch life.
Scooters are often subjected to extended periods of inactivity and storage, exposing the equipment to internal rust and corrosion. Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil is formulated with a special anti-corrosion additive package designed to provide long-term protection during periods of inactivity and storage.
Follow the equipment manufacturer's recommended drain intervals.
AMSOIL Formula 4-Stroke Synthetic Scooter Oil is compatible with conventional and synthetic motor oils. Mixing AMSOIL motor oils with other oils, however, will shorten the oil life expectancy and reduce the performance benefits. Aftermarket oil additives are not recommended for use with AMSOIL motor oils.
This product is not expected to cause health concerns when used for the intended application and according to the recommendations in the Material Safety Data Sheet (MSDS).

My wife talked me into buying 2 scooters to putt around the countryside. They are only 49cc engines but since I changed the oil to synthetic they picked up a few miles per hour. I believe synthetic oils are great for any moving metal parts. No wear, No friction, saves money in years to come and makes my engines very dependable.

I have used Amsoil oils for the last 15years on all my toys. Never had a problem. These oils are prime quality at a reasonable price.
You can't go wrong using them!

I bought a new riding mower and wanted the best oil I could find for it. I found the Formula 4 Stroke small engine oil and liked the fact that it was specifically designed for small engines. This year has been very hot and the grass has grown like crazy so the Amsoil has been put to the test and passed with flying colors. This is the only oil I will put in my mowers from now on.
