That gets me thinking. What if I ran the semi synthetic , I would assume it has less detergent then full on synthetic. Maybe run a flush or two with that to clean her out then switch to RP.

Just run a flush or do something like seafoam or marvel mystery oil or even a quart of kerosene and change the oil. Then run full synthetic
