[QUOTE="Richard L, post: 808773, member: 52972"] Synthetic oils are proven to be far more heat tollerant than conventioal oils in as much as they don't break down like conventional oils do when they get hot. Synthetic are also reduce friction better than conventional oils which reduces wear, and improves power and gas mileage. HorsePower TV did a test of Royal Purple and found that replacing the conventional oil in the engine, transmission, and rear axle of a late model Camaro netted an increas of 8 HP without any other modifications. I'm sure you can get similar results with other brands of synthetice lubricants. I used Mobil-1 in my Sport Trac's and my wife's Saturn and noticed an improvment in gas mmileage and very smooth, troublefree operation. My new MB C300 come from the factory with 9 quarts of Mobil-1 5W-40 in it's 3.0L V6 engine and only requires one oil change per year or 13K miles. ...Rich [/QUOTE]
