Ok, if I am going to change to synthetic oil, do I have to do anything or just drain the regular oil and add the synthetic? With of course changing the filter too. Wondering if I have to flush or anything. Thanks all

no change just use it.

No, you are good to go. The oil that came in the GT was a synthetic blend. I would suggest that you measure the oil you put back in and if you have a GT, add ONLY 6 qts. The bottles of Mobil 1 I have been getting lately are not consistant and are off by as much as 1/3 qt in the 5 gallon jugs.

1/3 too much?

You may want to open up the block and water spray all of the old oil outfirst.

No, they shorted me. I put in 1 jug plus another qt for a total of 6 qts, but the dipstick showed low. Had to buy another qt to top it off. There are those jugs that are fuller than some. I now pick the fullest jug I can find.

I know that Amsoil is fully compatable with dino oils. I'm 99.9% sure Mobil 1 is, too. Just drain and fill.

That ranks up there with feeding sand into the intake while the motor is running to port and polish the heads.
