[QUOTE="Nesikep, post: 1275976, member: 9096"] I think you make a good point.. it's the weight of the oil that makes oil pressure higher, not the composition of it.. synthetics actually usually flow a little thinner than dino oils, but perhaps that's just when it's cold, perhaps they don't thin out as much at high temps. I had an old toyota tercel 4wd wagon... I had that thing flipped on it's roof on the farm once, hauled 70,000 lbs of carrots in it, hauled hay for the cows for a whole winter, I put about 5,000 miles on it over the course of 2 years on the farm, then bought another car that was roadworthy but had a blown engine, so I put that one into it, and drove it for a year, about 25,000 more miles, never did change the oil in it, added a quart every once in a while, it had a couple leaks. it's parked now (rusted out), but that engine is still strong.. you s'pose I should change the oil?
