There has been a very enlightening thread on oil filters etc.... I would
like to see a thread started on the merits-in-general of using/not using
synthetic oil. Most all the information I have received has been from people
that really wouldn't know what the difference is. I think they come from "it
sounds like a good idea, so do it" rather than reality.
I am approaching 9,000 miles on a remanufactured engine that I have in one
of my vehicles. I have already changed the oil for the third time in this
engine, and it has been suggested that I use synthetic oil the next time.
The engine is 360 Dodge, with RV Cam and Heavy Duty Oil Pump.
This engine was pre-treated with Prolong Engine Treatment. It is also
recommended that Prolong Engine Treatment continued to be used. Any thoughts
regarding Prolong?
Thanks, and I wait with anticipation for your responses.
Michael
