Synthetic vs. Dino

[mbulriss]

Bob,

I have been using Amsoil in every internal combustion engine I own
since 1979. At 5,000 miles, with modern ring technolgy everything is
broken in by now and you are OK to switch, but since you just had the
oil changed, switch at 8-10,000 and get your money's worth out of the
last oil change. When you switch, make sure you get a good quality
synthetic oil filter also: Amsoil, Mobil-1 or the new Donaldson line.
The synthetics don't break down, but they will load up with dirt and
soot just like dino oil. You need excellent quality filters to
preserve your synthetic oil investment. The paper based filters are
are a waste of money and synthetic.
