>Like I said it is most likely a myth like needing to rotate radial tires >only front to back. We now know that we can rotate radial tires any which >way and I believe we can break an engine in better with synthetic oil. The radial tire deal was not a myth, it was quite real. Earlier radial tires could not be rotated side to side. I cannot conceive of anyone thinking synthetic oil is too slick to break in a motor....... Good grief. John |
