You may be wondering what the difference is between synthetic and conventional motor oil. Let us break it down for you.
Conventional motor oil is derived from crude oil and refined to perform in your engine. But since it is a natural substance, its molecules are of different shapes and sizes.
Synthetic motor oil is chemically engineered for consistent molecular structure and designed to eliminate impurities. It performs better in high and low temperatures and provides superior protection against wear.
Synthetic oil also resists breakdown, lasting longer between oil changes. While it may cost more initially, it saves money over time due to extended drain intervals and improved fuel economy.
