Eric,
Just call me Ken H, no need for the 83 if you read my question on air.
Long time watcher, first time asking a question.
I am really interested in the Pennzoil PurePlus natural gas based motor oil. I have a 2004 Ford Explorer, with approximately 135K miles on it and runs great still, and am wondering if after using Valvoline 5W-30 from purchase to 75K and Valvoline High Milage 5W-30 since the ~75K mark and above. Am I able to safely run the PurePlus Full Synthetic oil from Pennzoil? Same question goes for my wife’s ’14 Equinox with ~30K, which I’m assuming will be okay to use in this application since we’re already using a synthetic blend.
I have heard that synthetics can create “faux” oil leaks that appear because of it’s ability to work it’s way through smaller spaces than conventional oil and this makes me nervous.
I hope that you’re able to help me out, as I’m always for getting away from crude oil.
Thanks for your hard work and dedication to the DIY automotive world, you’re a very informative person when it comes to helping out those of us that try to do most things on their own.
Thanks,
Ken H.
