  AMSOIL

  • Certified Dealer

    • 1999 - Present

    The only Certified Dealer in Tuolumne County marketing synthetic lubricants for consumer and commercial uses in the automotive, recreational, marine, and various industrial applications. My 21 years of hands on experience with Philadelphia Gear in a wide variety of industrial and marine applications, many requiring synthetic lubrication for high operating temperatures in extreme heat and cold environments have been very useful as an Amsoil Dealer. I also practice what I preach in personally maintaining and repairing a dozen or so vehicles and boats for myself and family members. Backed by an outstanding technical department I believe in the superiority and integrity of Amsoil and its products.
