Hi,

What is our experience in switching to synthetics at certail mileages?
How about mixing sinthetics and mineral oil to switch gradually?
I have mainly two concerns - if the engine is somewhat dirty inside,
direct switch will result in loosening too much to soon.
And the leaks issue after switching. Also, any benefits in using
synthetic AFT in out automatics and differentials?
Thanks,





Val

I'm thinking I'm gonna switch to synthetic oil and gear lube here in the next few days. Gonna seafoam my engine to clean it out then change all the fluids
