Should put synthetic oil in my old car?

I have a 1998 Saturn SLS1 and it is burning oil. Should i replace my current oil with synthetic or not? It has 185k miles on it.Should put synthetic oil in my old car?
No. The others are very accurate. Don't waste your money.


You have a few miles on it and it's burning oil. Look for a 40 or 50W to put in in it. A multiple viscosity 20-50W is ideal. It's not going to stop the burning, it will slow it down until it hits the graveyard.


20-50, 30-50 and 50 are essentially the same oil. The numbers refer to kinematic viscosity. There is some benefit to multiple viscosity ones especially in a small motor, but get 20-50 if you can find it...cheap is OKAY.Should put synthetic oil in my old car?
HI


No .. if your already burning oil its not going to stop it and cost more to replace . In fact it may in cress oil loss. as it is thinner and well seep out of some of the gaskets and such...


good luck

If you're burning oil I would use an additive such as Lucas. Synthetic oils are slicker and would leak out faster.
If it's burning oil, don't waste money on synthetic oil.





Get a ring job.
nope, changing now will only create problems
