no credible reason to not use "synthectic" oil

there is no credible reason to use any oil except
synthetic oils in your engine .

most "synthetic oil" is not really synthetic oil
you need to read the specifications on the back of the oil bottle

for fuel economy
ACEA A1 B1 - A5 B5

for most engines for maximum life and minimum engine deposits
ACEA A3 B3 - A3 B4

the correct oils will prolong engine life and increase FE slightly and
are "cheaper" to use than
the
DOGSHNIT oils most people think are "good enough"
