So here we go again. My line of thinking has been that if you go synthetic over Dino, can you double the internal? For example earlier engines like 617 and 603 have a factory 5k interval. Could you go 10k on those with synthetic? Later engines such as 606 have a 7500 mile interval, so could those go 14-15k? I am thinking so but others have said that is crazy don’t go more than 5k on M1 since it’s a group 3. If you go amsoil or one of those that’s group 4 you can probably go 10-15k on. If I can double the interval it’s with it to me. I don’t really need the cold start benefit. I am not sure if it’s a benefit on a 2-300k mile engine that has ran on Dino it’s whole life.
