Re: synthetic oil ? S80 2001

posted by  someone claiming to be Paul Seminara on  Sat Mar 24 03:26 CST 2001 [RELATED]

A good synthetic oil will have no problem with 7500 miles. The advantages are cooler running, less wear in extreme conditions, better MPG, more power, less wear on start up.

Yes, I sell Amsoil. I try not to hide that fact. I do want to investigate the European ACEA A3 spec mentioned, I'm not sure Amsoil was tested to this. I know Europe is pushing for 50,000 KM (31,000 mile) oil drain intervals, so this spec may be related. Amsoil 0W-30 is rated to go 35,000 miles.
