the performance oil that outperforms ®MOTOR OILSMOTOR OILSFAQ’SWhat is the difference between HPS andRoyal Purple’s API-licensed motor oils?Royal Purple’s API-licensed motor oils are formulatedspecifically to meet current American Petroleum Institute(API) 1 , International Lubricant Standardization and ApprovalCommittee (ILSAC), and Association des ConstructeursEuropéens d’Automobiles (ACEA) specifications for new vehiclewarranties. Over the last several years, these specificationshave become increasingly stringent on certain additives,particularly those commonly used for anti-wear. As such, thenew warranty restrictions aren’t the best solution for consumersthat have modified their vehicles or those simply looking forthe greatest performance.HPS is formulated with these consumers in mind and includes adramatically enhanced anti-wear package. HPS is also the choicefor those seeking to maximize horsepower and torque, whilereducing wear, heat and fuel consumption. HPS is the mostrobust engine oil Royal Purple makes for non-racing applications.Will HPS harm my catalytic converters?No. Testing has shown no short or long term adverse affects oncatalysts in mechanically sound vehicles.Can I use HPS in my diesel engine?Absolutely. All viscosities of HPS, excluding 5W-20, areformulated for use in gas and/or diesel engines and as suchare ideal for those with modified diesels or those simplylooking for more performance out of their diesel.Are Royal Purple oils compatible with othermotor oils?Yes. Royal Purple lubricants are fully compatible with mineralor synthetic oils. No special procedures are necessary whenswitching to Royal Purple.Can your motor oil be used in older engines?Yes. Mileage and/or age is not a factor when used in amechanically sound engine. In high-mileage applications, we dorecommend running a minimum of two short 3,000 mile (5,000 Km)intervals before extending the oil drain intervals. This will enableRoyal Purple’s high solvency to remove existing depositsgradually; such deposits can restrict oil flow, if excessive, aswell as reduce the oil service life significantly.Can I use Royal Purple in my brand new car?Yes. Royal Purple currently offers many viscosity grades of APIlicensedmotor oils 1 . To allow for proper break-in of the engine,Royal Purple recommends waiting until the manufacturer’sfirst scheduled oil change or a minimum of 2,000 miles (3218 Km)in new gasoline engines. Allow a minimum of 6,000 miles(9656 Km) before using Royal Purple in diesel engines.How many miles can I go between oil changesin vehicles that use gasoline?Royal Purple suggests adhering to manufacturer’s recommendedoil change intervals for vehicles under warranty using its APIlicensedSAE motor oils. With Royal Purple HPS, drain intervalsmay be extended to 12,000 miles (20,000 Km) or one year,whichever occurs first in street-driven, mechanically-soundvehicles. For guidelines specific to your vehicle, we recommendcontacting our technical department 888-382-6300.How many miles can I go between oil changesin vehicles that use diesel engine oil?Royal Purple suggests adhering to manufacturer’srecommended oil change intervals for vehicles under warranty.Vehicles no longer under warranty using Royal Purple 15W-40diesel engine oil can extend oil change intervals up to 15,000miles (24,140 Km) or one year, whichever occurs first in streetdriven,mechanically-sound vehicles. For guidelines specific toyour vehicle, we recommend contacting our technical departmentat rpautotech@royalpurple.comDoes Royal Purple require a special oil filter?While no special oil filter is required, we do recommendupgrading to a high quality oil filter. A high quality filter willprevent contaminants from circulating through the systemand causing damage.Royal Purple now offers extended life oil filters. See our oil filterinformation page for more details or visit our dealer locator tofind the dealer nearest you that carries our new filters.Is Royal Purple synthetic motor oil?Yes. Royal Purple Motor Oils are composed of a proprietaryformulation of synthetic base oils and synthetic additivescontaining iso-paraffinic diluents.Will synthetic oil cause my engine to leak?Properly formulated synthetic oils will generally not cause anengine oil leak. Synthetic oils possess a higher degree of naturalsolvency, which can clean and remove deposits left by previousoils. The removal of extensive oil deposits can expose marginalor damaged oil seals, which may then leak. If an engine currentlyhas excessive oil consumption (i.e. greater than 1 quart / 1,000miles) the recommended course of action is to solve the oilconsumption problem before switching to a synthetic.Should I use an oil additive with Royal Purple?No. We strongly recommend against using any oil additives asdo most automotive manufacturers. Engine oils are formulatedwith a fine balance of additives (anti-foam, corrosion inhibitors,anti-wear, detergent / dispersants, oxidation inhibitors), andmore is not necessarily better. The use of an oil additive couldupset the balance resulting in reduced performance.Does Royal Purple maintain its purple colorafter it’s put into service?No. The dye that’s used to color the oil dissipates shortly afterbeing put into service. The color will turn brown at some point.Do your motor oils contain zinc/phosphorus?Yes. All Royal Purple engine oils contain the zinc/phosphoruscompound zinc dialkyl dithiophosphate (ZDDP), but the maximumamounts are restricted by the current API oil specifications. Forstock, non-performance automotive street applications thathave flat tappet cams, API SN licensed oils are OK. For betterwear protection, Royal Purple HPS and XPR lines of engine oilsare formulated with a higher concentration of the zinc andphosphorus anti-wear additive and are suitable for ALL flattappet and roller tappet camshaft valve trains. For a specificrecommendation, contact our tech department at 888-382-6300.Can your oil be used with flat tappet cams?Yes. For stock, non-performance flat tappet valve trains, Royal PurpleSAE oils (API SN and ILSAC GF-5 licensed) are OK. For upgradedperformance flat tappet camshafts, and vintage high performanceengines, we recommend our HPS or XPR engine oils. For a specificrecommendation, contact our tech department at 888-382-6300.Is a special oil filter required when usingRoyal Purple?While no special oil filter is required, we do recommend upgrading to ahigh quality oil filter.

the performance oil that outperforms ®Marine OILSFAQ’SHow do I determine what viscosity to use, if Ido not have an owner’s / operator’s manual.Most all 4-stroke gasoline marine engines recommend a multiviscosity30 or multi-viscosity 40 weight engine oil. The mostcommon is the 40 weight with the most common exceptionsbeing Honda and Suzuki outboard motors.What Ratio of oil do I mix with the gas?We recommend starting with the ratio recommended by theequipment manufacturer. Typically this can be leaned-out alittle, but it is highly equipment specific.How often should I change my oil in my boatengine using Royal Purple?After the first 1 - 2 oil changes with the Royal Purple HPM motoroil, we recommend up to 3 times the hours listed in the owner’s /operator’s manual, or 12 months, whichever comes first.How often should I change my lower unit oilusing Royal Purple?Assuming there is no contamination from foreign substances,we recommend up to 3 times the hours or time listed in theowner’s / operator’s manual, whichever comes first.I noticed that HPM engine oils can be usedin place of several viscosity grades of oil.Which one is right for my engine?HPM oils are intended for 4-stroke, gasoline marine engines. If thefactory recommends 10W-30 or SAE 30, Royal Purple HPM 10W-30is the best choice. If the factory recommends 10W-40, 15W-40,20W-40 or 25W-40, Royal Purple HPM 10W-40 is the best choice.How can I tell if HPM 80W-90 gear oil isright for my lower unit/outdrive?When looking at a SAE gear oil viscosity grade, the last number is mostimportant. If the factory recommends 75W-90, 80W-90, or SAE 90(straight 90 weight) gear oil, Royal Purple HPM 80W-90 will work greatin your lower unit/outdrive.I have a 2-stroke outboard engine. Can I useHPM engine oil?For 2-stroke engines, we recommend Royal Purple HP 2-C 2 cycle oil. Itworks great in pre-mix or oil injected applications. For pre-mix, werecommend using the manufacturer recommended mix ratio.Transmission and Gear OilsCan I use your Max ATF in my transmission?Check your owner’s manual for verification. A complete list ofwarranty applications can be found on page 19.My vehicle has a limited-slip differential. DoI need to add additional friction modifierswhen using your Max Gear?No. All viscosities of Max Gear are formulated with hypoidfriction modifiers necessary for use in clutch or conedifferentials. No additional additives are necessary.My vehicle’s transmission specifies an APIGL-4 gear oil. Can I use Max Gear?Yes. Max Gear is completely non-corrosive to soft yellow metals(brass, bronze, copper) so it is synchronizer-safe like a GL-4gear oil. However, because of Royal Purple’s proprietarySynerlec additive technology, Max Gear oils retain the loadcarrying and shock protection capability of a GL-5 gear oil.MAX-CLEANWhat happens when fuel breaks down?It forms non-combustible gums that form deposits in fuelsystems/combustion chambers, which decreases engineperformance/fuel economy, and increases emissions.Will Max-Clean rejuvenate old fuel?No, but it will prevent it from breaking down any further, andallow it to be safely used without forming engine deposits.How long does Max-Clean stabilize fuel?Fuel can be stabilized to 1 year for gasoline/ethanol blends up toE15, and to 9 months for higher ethanol concentrations like E85.With what fuels does Max-Clean work?Gasoline, ethanol, diesel, and biodiesel.Can Max-Clean be used in modern, fuelinjected engines?Yes, it will not harm catalytic converters or oxygen sensors,and will clean/remove deposits in port injected, direct injected,and carbureted engines.How does Max-Clean remove deposits?It contains polyetheramine (PEA), a proprietary detergentthat solubilizes deposits so they can be burned during thecombustion cycle in an engine.Does Max-Clean increase octane?No, but a cleaner burning engine has a reduced octanerequirement, which allows less expensive, lower octanegasoline to be used without the risk of detonation.Purple IceIs Purple Ice compatible with other coolingsystem additives?Purple Ice should not be used with other heat-transfer orcooling enhancing products or “water wetters”. If such aproduct has been used in the cooling system, the systemshould be drained and flushed before using Purple Ice.Purple Ice is compatible with cooling system additives intendedto stop or slow leaks. Please note that such stop-leak productsoften typically put a coating on the interior surfaces of thecooling system, so the effects of Purple Ice may be diminished.Is Purple Ice compatible with anti-freeze inmy car?Purple Ice is compatible with all current OEM/factory andmajor brand automotive anti-freeze. This includes traditionalgreen ethylene glycols, as well as OAT/HOAT antifreezes (e.g.DexCool; Ford and Chrysler orange, gold, pink; European andJapanese OEM red, pink, etc.).What water / antifreeze concentration isrecommended when using Purple Ice?Purple Ice may be added to any antifreeze / water mix; however,testing has shown higher water concentrations yield greatercooling benefits. While Purple Ice does contain corrosioninhibitors as well as lubricants to compensate for a lowerantifreeze / water concentration, Royal Purple recommendsusing an concentration of antifreeze appropriate for the coldwinter temperatures in your area because Purple Ice offers nofreeze or boiling protection. The preferred coolant mix wouldcontain a minimum of 20% antifreeze (offers -10°F protection)to provide a higher boiling point, and greater corrosion anddeposit protection for the coolant, along with 1 to 2 ounces ofPurple Ice per quart of coolant.How much Purple Ice do I need to add to mycooling system?When using Purple Ice with an antifreeze / water mix, RoyalPurple recommends adding 1 ounce of Purple Ice per quart ofcooling system capacity. For straight water (racing)applications, Royal Purple recommends adding 2 ounces ofPurple Ice per quart of cooling system capacity.How often should I add Purple Ice to my radiator?When used with antifreeze, Purple Ice should be added once ayear or every 30,000 miles (48,280 Km), whichever comes first,in order to maintain proper performance. When using Purple Icein a cooling system running straight water, Purple Ice should beadded once a year or every 15,000 miles (24,140 Km), whichevercomes first.Will adding too much Purple Ice harm mycooling system?No, a higher concentration of Purple Ice than recommendedwill not harm the cooling system or engine. However, goingwell beyond 2 ounces of Purple Ice per quart of coolant won’toffer any additional cooling benefit, but may result in somefoam generation in the system.Can Purple Ice be used in diesel engines?Yes. Purple Ice may be used in diesel engines for improved heattransfer as well as reduced cavitation.FAQ’S34 35
