What is the purpose of semi synthetic oil?
The purpose of semi-synthetic oil is to provide a balance between the affordability of conventional mineral oils and the enhanced performance and protection of fully synthetic oils. Semi-synthetic oils aim to offer improved lubrication properties, better resistance to high temperatures, reduced engine wear, and extended engine life compared to conventional oils. They are designed to meet the needs of modern engines that require higher performance standards while remaining cost-effective for consumers. Overall, semi-synthetic oils aim to optimize engine efficiency and longevity in a variety of operating conditions. Types Of Semi Synthetic Oil: Semi-Synthetic Blend: These oils are a mixture of conventional mineral oil and synthetic base oils. They typically contain around 30-50% synthetic oil mixed with mineral oil. This blend offers improved performance and protection compared to conventional oils while remaining more affordable than full synthetic oils**.** Hybrid Semi-Synthetic: Also known as synthetic technology oils, these are formulations where the base oil is primarily mineral oil with some synthetic additives to enhance its performance characteristics. They provide better protection against high temperatures and engine wear than conventional oils but may not offer the same level of performance as a semi-synthetic blend.

Can you use synthetic bled motor oil after using regular motor oil?
Yes, anything mid 80's and up can be switched between conventional oil and synthetic oil. Anything older (that was around when zinc was found in oil, or when cork gaskets were used) should stick to conventional oil. It's actually federally mandated that conventional and synthetic oils be interchangable.
What is the difference in a synthetic oil change and a regular oil change?
Conventional oils are derived from natural crude oils and contain small amounts of additional elements & impurities such as sulphur and hydrocarbons. Synthetic oils, being made in a laboratory, do not contain the same impurities thus synthetic will run cleaner through the engine. Cleaner engine means less build-up thus fewer oil changes are required. Additionally, with the absence of those impurities, the oil can flow more quickly throughout the engine regardless of the temperature. While synthetic oils do cost considerably more than natural oils, fewer trips to the mechanic means more savings in the long run. The recommendation for standard oil change is approximately 3,000 miles while synthetic oils can run for 5,000 to 10,000 miles.
