What are the advantages of using synthetic engine oils?
Synthetic engine oils are able to: • Operate at much higher temperatures for longer • Resist oxidation better than mineral oils leading to less wear and longer engine life • Be used for longer or extended drain intervals • Provide quicker oil circulation at start-up which contributes to improved fuel economy due to less energy being wasted through viscous drag For these reasons synthetic oils are preferred in situations where maximum performance is required.
