FWIW, this lister changes his Amsoil synthetic at 12k mile intervals, with a
filter change (with a very high quality Amsoil oil filter) at 6k miles.
Never a problem. Been doing it for years.

And I'm being conservative!! Amsoil recommends/allows changes at 25k mile
intervals, with the filter change at 12.5k miles. I just can't convince
myself to let it go that long..... go ahead, call me a wimp!!! :-)
