Yes there is. Run a good synthetic oil after break-in and change the filter
regularly. There have been numerous studies conducted on the benefits of
running synthetic oil in an engine. I have experienced first-hand the
dramatic reduction in engine wear. All my engines (even the lawnmower) run
synthetic oil. I swear by it!
These additives that boast better wear protection are only as good as the
base oils they are added to.
