    I just put in 10w30 full synthetic of Royal Purple. I heard so many times that Royal Purple was the best. So I decided to give it a shot.

    Do I think it helped?
    Meh. Its ok. Not day and night difference. What I want to get next maybe is an Oil Temp Gauge.

    Royal Purple is pretty good stuff. I used to run it, but just don't expect it to perform miracles or anything. You're not gonna notice "10% more power" or whatever they claim. And no, you can't drain it out and run the engine without oil.

    Tried that one already. Didn't work.
    I keep an inch and a half guardrail nut on a loop of 550 cord. It's not whiz-bang tactical, but one smack in the grape and it's coloring books for Christmas.

    Just use a good name brand Full Synthetic motor oil. Some like Royal Purple some like Castrol Syntec while others prefer Mobil 1. Actually I use Royal Purple but might try this brand:

    Mobil1 all the way. Tried Castrol before, gave me knocks here and there and the car ran a bit sluggish.

    Castrol is not a full synthetic... the base oils it uses are not synthetic. But it is probably one of the best dino-oil based motor oils.

    Really though, you should not feel a difference. Most oils are pretty good these days.
