Here is my testiminial to Motor Oil. Not that I am favoring either as I am
still confused to which is best for the Roadsters. But I ran my 1981 Volvo
240DL / 4cyl motor all the way to 190,000 and it never needed a rebuild.
Still had good compression and got the same 20 mpg as when new. Yes the car
was used very hard too... It was taken out duck hunting every year in
extremely dusty or muddy conditions. Four to five trips to the snow
annually... i even used it to tow my Roadster to the track. <Pictures are
on my photopoint site>.
So, it isnt that I am not sold on Synthetics. Since I change the oil and
filter every 3-4K I figure everything is good.
