Do they make lawnmowers with VTEC? Cause I was watching a baseball game and there was a pattern in the grass, I figured it was when the VTEC kicked in

Amsoiil is really the only true full synthetic. Amsoil is the 1st in synthetics.

The problem is that when you use Amsoil you cannot switch back to regular oil.
Mbile1 synthetic will allow you to switch back to regular oil.
What are you talking about? You can switch back to regular oil after using Amsoil. You can switch to a different sythetic, you can switch to a 50/50. If you think I am wrong, do some reading up. It won't hurt your engine.

I would go over to Bob is the Oil Guy's and look around his site/forums. If memory serves, he does a companison of the synthetics for airation properties and AmsOil comes out behind great ones such as Redline.

Even if memory dosen't serve, I'd still look around his site/formus for into on oil. He knows his stuff.

i think i am going to go all out and buy the 55 gal drum. when you calculate it out, its only $4.10 for a quart of oil. buying in bulk is the only way to go.
