RE: Synthetic Oil Q&A's?
im withgene, oil is oil, synthetic oil is only good for motors that get driven hard, for long periods of time ,which for most people is not the fact& for lazy people that change their oil every 12000 miles[:@], i've been working on cars for 27+ years (before synthetic was even on the market), & have done about 50000 oil changes, & have found that any car can last long just by changing the oil every 3000 miles , i have some customers with older cars with 250000 - 300000 mile on them
why? , because they change the oil every 3000 miles
the only time i use synthetic is when i go on vacation , when i drive at 70mph for 8-10 straight hours

I'd say synthetic is good. Just did an oil change 2 week ago + PCV Valve change + the Pure One filter was larger than the oem Honda one. Weekly mpg tanks went up to 43 and 44 mpg from typical 41.5 to 42.5 tanks, no hypermiling.
