I use Amsoil in my Saturn. Mileage improved a bit, since the oil flows
better.

Here is a line from one of the results below:
 Firstly what are they?
  Synthetic base oils are made from by-products of the crude oil refining
process.
  It may be from wax that is extracted or from the gas that burns off, but
they DO come from crude.

Subject: [biofuel] What Is Synthetic Oil Made Of?


My new 1984 Mercedes 300DT is going to need an oil change right away. 
Naturally I would like to consider using a non-petroleum-based oil.

What are synthetic oils made of? Snips and snails and puppy-dog 
tails? Sugar and spice and all things nice?

In other words, are any/some/all synthetic oils non-petroleum? Are 
any particular brands better than others?

If I use synthetic oil (which I believe is much more expensive) 
should I Get Real about one of those bypass filtering systems that 
were recently discussed?

Thank you.

Maud
