Alternatively, you can flush the engine first if you have been driving around with mineral oil for years.
Old car cannot use Full-Sycn engine oil?, Can anyone correct me?

QUOTE(the_catacombs @ Jul 11 2008, 04:46 PM) flush additives not really recommended for old engines... valve seals and other oil seals might wear off faster, causing more serious oil leaks.... Yeah, i should have put "proceed with caution" for old cars old car jz stay with mineral oil la... cheaper mah... jz find a better quality mineral oil can adi....   Modern oil seals/gaskets might not have issue with flush additives, unless it's about removing baked on deposits that are actually helping to seal thinned/worn gaskets around the oil pan for instance... |
