ya i heard the same thing, u have to start running it when ur motor is new, or dont run it
I know of one case where a guy I know put synthetic oil in his 130,000 mile car (don't remember the type) and was impressed. He said the motor had a slight tick/knock when he first started running it and it went away after about 20,000 miles. He was fully in favor of synthetics, but as we all know, if there are any questionable seals in the engine it will leak.
I run synthetic in my Fatboy and I switched my toy over to it and it started knocking (conn. rod) so I switched back but after reading this I think I'll give it another try

Don't know if this true or not. But, I've heard that the molecules in synthetic oils are smaller than those of a conventional oil. If that is true, they will find leaks that normal oil can't get through.
Question for BigMIke: What data/experience do you have with AMSoil to prove that it is the best? I don't disagree that it might be the best, but I am just curious why you feel so strongly about it.
I told him what my major was and he was curious to see how much I knew about engines.
