The old owner of my car thought synthetic oil was best. From my and Steves readings it is found that synthetic dose not transfer heat well. And that is not good for air cooled moters. (IMG:http://www.914world.com/bbs2/html/emoticons/wacko.gif)
I have heard it is not a good thing to switch. How do I change form snake Oil to regular? What weight should I run? I have a 75, 2.0L, 4 cyl AM I STUCK WITH SYNTHETIC???? |

Sorry dave my last reply did not make it on for some reason.(newbie)
You guys say jake rabby has don some testing on the topic. I thought that most natural stuff ran cooler than syn. or tranfered the heat away from the motor better. If there is evedence to the contrary please tell me. |
