Same happened to a friend with an old Jeep truck. Smoked so bad he could fog
for misquitoes.That's why I wondered if the same would be true for an old
diesel in a boat.RonWild CheriC&C 30-1STL

As an aside, in high school I had a 48 Ford with a flat head V 8. I wanted to
treat it good so instead of using regular 30 weight I used a nice detergent

much fell apart, blowing out so much oil that a could not see out the rear view
mirror.

I'd been told by a mechanic, that one shouldn't put 100% synthetic oil in an
old vehicle that had been using regular oil all its life.? The claim was that
it would clean the engine too good and it would start leaking.It's highly
recommended for newer cars of course.I would presume the same would be true for
marine engines, unless the fact that they're diesels would make a
difference???Anyone else ever heard that story and have heard whether it's true
or not?RonWild CheriC&C 30-1?STL
