Is it okay to switch from synthetic motor oil to regular motor oil?

yes it is fine but of course synthetic is the best to use if you can. Double check your oil requirements with your owner's manual. If it states that normal oil is okay, then go ahead. If your owner's manual dictates Synthetics, then DO NOT switch.

Mix synthetic transmission fluid with regular?

It is typically okay to use synthetic ATF to top off a transmission originally filled with conventional ATF, or to replace conventional ATF in a transmission. However, you should always check with the manufacturer of the synthetic ATF you want to use if it is compatible with conventional fluids, and if it meets the requirements for your application.

Mixing syntheic blend with synthetic?

The question is somewhat unclear, but if you're asking if it's okay to mix synthetic-blend motor oil with full-synthetic motor oil, then the answer is yes. However, it somewhat defeats the purpose of paying extra for full-synthetic oil. Full-synthetic oils lubricate better than conventional and blended oils, and are more resistant to breakdown. This doesn't mean you should go longer between oil changes, though. No matter how good the oil lubricates, it still gets contaminated with particles from the combustion process and needs to be changed. The advantage is that over a long period of time, full-synthetic oil's better lubrication will protect the interior of the engine from heat and friction better than conventional or even synthetic-blend oils. With all conditions being equal, the engine treated with full-synthetic oil will retain its original performance and efficiency longer than the same engine treated with the alternatives. How much? That's a WHOLE different question! Synthetic-blend oils take advantage of the superior lubricating properties of full-synthetic, but at a lower cost by blending full-synthetic oil with conventional oil. It is a slight improvement, but generally won't make a considerable difference in the life of your engine if you maintain it properly and change your oil regularly. Again, contaminants are the biggest culprits in engine deterioration, not cheap oil (usually, there are exceptions). Mixing synthetic-blend oil with full-synthetic won't hurt anything at all except for slightly downgrading the superior lubrication properties of the full-synthetic oil. Mixing in conventional oil is also acceptable, effectively producing a synthetic-blend oil. Just be sure to use the proper oil type as called for in the owner's manual.


Is it okay to switch to synthetic in a cummins?

Yes, just make sure it is a diesel rated oil. There are varying opinions on how long you should wait for the engine to break in first. 10,000 or 15,000 miles is probably safe. 5w40 is the commonly used synthetic diesel oil.


Is it ok to use synthetic oil on a 2004 Toyota Tacoma?

It's okay to use Synthetic oil on any vehicle but bare in mind, if your vehicle has previously run on regular oil you will need to drain all the oil out completely in order to switch to synthetic, once you run on synthetic oil though you have to keep the oil synthetic because switching between different types of oil will really mess up your vehicle.

Is it okay to switch from regular oil to synthetic oil in a car that has more than a hundred thousand miles?

i'd say its better. you might get leaks, because regular oil has bigger molecules than symthetic. i run synthetic in my truck with 193,000 miles all the time no trouble
