Very educational, Kirk...many thanx!
I should have said "mineral" instead of "dinosaur", obviously!!
When it comes to film strength and standing up to heat, nothing can beat a
synthetic for sure. Synthetics get by on
film strength wherein mineral oils rely
moreso on viscosity (and those
viscosity improver "chains" which we
know get "torn down" over use/time).
Couldn't agree more with changing oil/filter regularly (according to use) and
thus removing contaminants from the
crankcase, "new" oil/filter notwithstanding.
