would it hurt to go from synthetic back to regular oil

 

[Len Todd]

No. I have switched back and forth for years, with many types of trucks. I typically use synthetic in the winter.

Nothing wrong with going back to conventional, Rotella is an excellent oil.

As much as I hate walmart/sams, I am heading to sam's club in a little while to buy some rotella. They had the 2 2.5 gallon jugs for 50 bucks. $10/gallon. :rockin

If I ever removed my emissions crap I'll go back to synthetic.

You should search for the Lucas write up someone did here,it is in the threads if ya search,bet you won't use it too much longer.........IMHO there is a lot better products out there....

You should check Tractor Supply then, I usually find it for the same price if not a few cants cheaper

Also a plus is I do not have to deal with WelfareMart :rockin

I always forget about tractor supply and I am tax exempt (Farm use) and save another 8%.

The answer to your question is yes you may switch anytime you want with no ill effects. Syns and Dino are compatible.

OK I gotta admit I'm spending a bit but she's not quite stock and when I load her up to 9300 lbs pulling a 10,000 lb trailer she's a working girl!
