Mr. Viggy's comments are often accurate - when I was an Amsoil dealer
I encouraged people to at least try it first before making that
assumption - but in older designs with high mileage, often times the
very nature of the non-pure oil was what kept the seals intact. My
suggestion would be to try it - but watch for weaping and other leaks.
If you see severe leaks, switch back.
IMHO - Amsoil makes the best synthetic products out there - not
to say there is anything wrong with Mobil 1 - but I found Amsoils
products to be better - hence I started selling them. (BTW, I never
made enough to cover the yearly dealer fee)
