It was sea foam. I put it in with the old oil and let it run for like 15 minutes, I then pushed the car into the garage to drain and replace the oil. I don't know what would happen if you drove with the addative in, but I thought it prudent to not find out. And like I said, it took a little driving for the oil pressure to regulate. I did a bit of research on this first and if your car was sitting, and the sending unit is original it might be bad.
I would like to hear thoughts on using fully synthetic oil. Guys from a pre '64 car club in Detroit told me to only use synthetic, but then I've run into people here in Austin who wouldn't use synthetic oil in a rotary. It seems to run a lot smoother and warm up faster with synthetic, but that is just my opinion.
