I've heard both good and bad things about it. It might not be the cheapest, though, when you can get Mobile 1 & other brands at Kmart. Do a google search on 'synthetic oil' and you'll get all kinds of info and prices.

I guess when all the synthetic oils hit the open market, it kinda put a damper of Amsol's niche.
Synthetics being new to me, I wonder about filter performance going so many miles between changes but lots of folks use to change filters every other oil change. I've always changed the filter with the oil but some people don't.

Some syn oil dealers recommend changing filters about 1/2 way between oil changes. It doesn't break down like petro oil but it still gets dirty.

When it first came out I used their 2 cycle oil (premix) in my snowmobile. Blew up my engine on the 2nd tank of gas.  I've stayed away from it since. I mixed it according to the ratio chart. I would stay away from synthetics. JMO |
