if you think you're buying synthetic make sure it is what you think it is. some of the oils are blended, or what can be called synthetic because it is cracked but not exactly in the same league as some of the higher priced synthetics.

then you have different additive packages that might make a petro based oil better then than what is called a synthetic.

there are diff. groups of oil, 1,2,3,4,5.

1 being petroleum and 5 being 100% pao, or something like that.

plus the stuff seems to be always changing in formulation, so finding up to date info is sometimes difficult.
