-- [ From: John H. Rodgers * EMC.Ver #2.5.02 ] -- August issue of Motor Trends magazine carried an article titled "Synthetic Motor Oil - Is it worth the price?" In summary: Synthetic Oil - good for extreme conditions. Regular Oil - Good for normal use. Blends - they are O.K. You can make your own synthetic/regular oil blends that work just fine. In wear tests there was no difference in performance between synthetics and regular oils. Very good article!! More info might be found at www.motortrend.com John Rodgers '85GL Driver |
