Post Amsoil 5w-30 in, 1-2 MPG +

Switched over finally this last week. After driving about 60% freeway the rest around town, my milage at 1/2 tank was 180miles. Usually I get around 160 miles.

I know it is not real scientific here, but the gains can be seen in MPG. Also it have freed up some HP in the engine. Really helped there in the 4.6.

Amsoil only makes a 100% synthetic 5w30!

They do have a semi synthetic 10w40, but I don't know anyone who uses it since it is only about 30 cheaper than the full syn. stuff.

Hope this helps

Hey Matt!

The Amsoil 5w-30 you are using....is it regular oil or is it synthetic?

Curious!
