I use a synthetic blend.... only oil problem I've had is a busted oil pan which was pretty expensive, but didn't have anything to do with the kind of oil I put in

If you have a small leak Syn will probably leak a little quicker. Basically Syn works great & anything that needs fixing will still need fixing. I have 236,000 miles on this 95 & the slight valve cover leak did not change when I switched from organic to Syn. Starts easier, with less drag on the engine. Buy a brand name, I wouldn't trust the wannabees. Go Smooth, Ed

I put Mobil 1 in mine when I picked it up in July of 04 with 86k. That's all it's ever seen now that it's got 96k on it. As long as your oil pan isn't rotted like mine was, you should be fine.
