So i bought a "new" 7A-FE and it has 60k on it (obviously was drained and cleaned before i put it in) and I put in I think Castrol 10W-30
And I just wanted to know If i can still switch to synthetic? Or will it mess with my internals?
And what exactly is the advantage of using synthetic? cleaner? last longer?
tell me what I should do!
thanks-

synthetic you can use. It lasts longer, cleans your walls better, and better for abuse, i mean performance wink.gif

That may or may not be a myth that it cleans it too well to affect it that bad. But if it does create leaks, seals should've been replaced anyways or your car hasn't been maintained very well. Synthetic is proven to be a better oil. Mobil 1 is commonly used but I use Royal Purple.
