I run only 100% synthetic oil, 0 W 30 in my TJ and Crown Vic. Only
synthetic oil is used in turbine engines. Dino oil breaks down ,and
cannot take the heat. If it can stand the rpm's turned by turbines and
not fail that tells me its far superior to dino oil.

Kevin, synthetic oil is petroleum (dino oil) refined to "basestocks"
with some man made additives.

Dealer in New Zealand uses Mobil S for engine oil in TJs. Just had it
