Really, aside from the cleanliness and longevity of the motor. How much of a difference does it make on the performance or power output of the motor if you have old burnt up oil that is broken down still in the motor?
Percentage wise how much power do you think you loose from having worn out motor oil that needs to be changed? 10%? 20%? more? -------------------- Bust a Deal; Face the Wheel.
