In any group of petrol heads the talk will invariably turn to engine oils, engine oil price and the inevitable subject as to why use synthetic motor oil?

1) Highly developed friction modifiers cut energy sapping friction. This not only increases power output, but also reduces fuel consumption and can also lessen operating temperature.
