[QUOTE="Atimm693, post: 1434855, member: 26138"] We get Citgo semi synthetic 15W40 by the drum. I do a 500 hour interval on the big tractors, which is close to what the manufacturers recommend. Did the same with conventional up until a couple years ago, can't say I ever noticed a difference. They start the same in the winter. You can use synthetic in an ATV as long as it is JASO rated. Rotella T6 and T4 meet that requirement, and work well in my motorcycles. And if it's an automatic belt drive, use any oil you want, the clutch is not in contact with the engine oil. There's no danger in using it, but I'm not sure if it pencils out with the higher cost. For us, the syn blend in a drum costs about the same as conventional from the farm store, and it's a lot more convenient. Buying synthetic in small quantities gets pretty expensive. [/QUOTE]
