Even Mazda says to stay away from it, and that says a lot


You are correct about the fuel pump but I figure I can do some thing like tis because it isn't hurting any thing to do so( sort of like putting your toung in your cheek before starting for the first time your build you did .). Iam not running a sohn adapter, and you are correct again that it is an endless debate ad you forgot to add, and not a winning argument on either side. The jury is out so to speak on the syn vs Dino debate. Carbon build up is a very important issue. I try to address that by running my about up to 8,000 rpm several times during my play time.

As far as mazda goes, what Mazda says and a buck will get you a cup of coffee, so you see I am not a believer of Stealer ships. I have been using syn oil for quite a while with no bad effect in fact my motor runs better than it did before I started using syn oil. I am going to pull my plugs this weekend and have a gander at the condition after so many thousand miles. I have a friend at Mazda Racing tha helps me out now and then no worries mate.
