holy old post batman


but I use full synthetic in both my trucks, some people say you shouldnt use synthetics in a higher milage motor, I dunno... I've had no real problems with it. my buddy says thats why I threw a rod bearing outta my motor, but I think that had to do with something else. I will still continue to use synthetics.

 

i dont think using synthetic oil caused you to spin a bearing or thow a rod. No oil...perhaps.

 

ya, I dont think it caused it either, I had lots of oil. I dunno. it was sitting all winter and I only started it once. which usually I will start it once amonth. but this year I was just too busy. then when I went to get it out acouple weeks ago, it started to knock like hell. so maybe it was a dry startup that caused it....

 

hmm im afraid to switch to synthetic since a firend of mine switched over to synthetic in his acura integra, all the seals began to give way and oil leaked everywhere

 

Synthetic is the factory fill for both my viper and my vette. It's also the only oil rolls royce, pratt& whitney, general electric, and allison use in their jet engines.

If it's good enough for all of the above then it's good for my Dak as well. I have been using it on my dak since I did it's first oil change.
