Re: Synthetic Oil Question
 

Good choice. Most here think that synthetics are a waste of money.
I've also met people who think that using toilet paper only once is a
big waste too. I've even met one guy who washed out and reused old
disposable oil filters to save big money. To each their own.

Stick with full PAO synthetic-based stocks. Blends and their 5000
product use petroleum stock. Expect the first few changes to be
extra-dirty; synthetics use a better detergent formula that will
quickly remove the sludge and varnish that the old oil left behind.

Take a look at mobilone.com before deciding.

Go to WalMart and for about $30 you get your choice of synthetic..
the only problem is you will also get a Fram filter..

Re: Synthetic Oil Question
 

Synthetics have their place, such as racing, extreme cold, or a pattern of
short trips and not warming up the engine, that you just can't avoid. It is
cheap enough to put a synthetic in the axles, if that is what you want to
do. It is waste to put it in the engine, because it is going to be
contaminated with blowby just as fast as petroleum.
