What else can I help you with?
What is the difference in viscosity between semi and fully synthetic oil?
There is no difference in viscosity. A 10w30 full synthetic is the same as a 10w30 blend.
Can you mix synthetic oil and non synthetic oil?
Yes, that is what a synthetic blend is that they sell.
What is the difference between the SAE 20w-50 and 20w-50 lubricating oil?
20w-50 indicates Synthetic-oil
What is the difference between plastics and elastomers?
The difference between plastics and elastomers is actually quite simple. Plastics are made from oil and elastomers are made from synthetic material.
Once you change oil to synthetic oil in a Isuzu Trooper do you have to use only synthetic oil each time after that?
Why would you want to go back to a non-synthetic oil. Synthetic oil's are far superior to non-synthetic oil.Hope This Helps.AnswerNo, todays oils are compatible and it won't hunt anything changing back and forth
What is the difference between synthetic motor oil and high mileage motor oil?
High milage motor oil has extra additives which help prevent oil leaks.
Is it alright to mix synthetic motor oil with regular non-synthetic motor oil in car engines?
That's okay.
What kind of oil is the best oil to use?
It is always best to use the oil recommended by your vehicle manufacture. If you are considering the difference between Synthetic oil and Conventional (pumped from the ground); if your owner's manual says to use synthetic, you need to use synthetic. But if your engine was designed around conventional, then you can upgrade to synthetic. Synthetic has advantages as being better at cleaning and protection your engine, but if you have a higher mileage vehicle, synthetic can cause leakage of the gaskets and oil seals.
Is there a difference between gear oil and crancase oil?
Yes, gear oil is normally much heavier and is non-detergent.
What happens when mix synthetics with non synthetics?
Synthetic and conventional oil can be mixed and used with no problem. That is exactly what a synthetic blend that you can buy is. A mix of synthetic oil and conventional.
Will non synthetic oil damage a engine that needs fully synthetic oil?
Yes, although don't expect damage to be immediate. Petroleum oil is refined and synthetic oil is engineered. The difference being the molecular structure is unstable and varies in petroleum oils. Synthetic oil has a more stable molecular structure that is less susceptible to shear stresses. I use Amsoil in particular, because it outperforms all other synthetics, but ANY synthetic is better than conventional. If your mfr requires synthetic, for sure do not compromise!
What oil for an rx-8?
