Re: [Amc-list] Synthetic or conventional....

Exactly, that's why I didn't bother with it in the Altima. I tried it once and it didn't change fuel economy. I knew it was a good  car and would likely go the 80K we usually keep one, so I went with conventional.
  Well, I didn't do all the math. I realized when it hit 90K and my son was turning 15 I wanted to keep it for him to learn on. So we still have it. Luckily it still runs fine at 133K ! doesn't use a drop of oil between changes either.
  That's probably what will kill it. It's been so good when it decides to be bad, we'll miss the signs till its too late!
