Re: Synthetic Oil Question
I think I remember reading somewhere that you can take a tablespoon of oil
and drop it in a lake and it will ------ to over 1 acre. That depends on
the wind over the lake too. On a calm day, over an acre is possible.

Re: Synthetic Oil Question
I've had better luck in really cold weather with the synth. The
starting viscosity seems to be better than the W value on the can.
Biggest benefit i've noted is heavy driving in triple digit heat, where
they tend to out last the traditionals.
I also get just about a mile a gallon better mileage at cruising speed
with a tad less useage, but only really notice this on trips of a couple
thousand miles.
