    you put your oil in a jet and ill put mine in a jet and we'll see who fall out the sky first. they had to come up with something because reg. oil cant stand the heat of a jet engine. should be a walk in the park for synthetic oil in a gas engine.

    i always thought that sythetic oil was the best stuff in the world but i never dared try it it my own stuff. then one day i thought i might as well use it because its supposed to be good for 10,000 miles and to be honest with you at times i was getting close to that with the regular oil p.s. never buy a mechanics vehicle, they are the least maintained of them all.
