    eh, its good to change it at3k but it isn't needed. my oil stays pretty clean for
    4-5k between changes.

    3000 miles before syn... i would really do 5k no need to switch early. motor can still be broken in 1500 miles. i have had a few poeple with 1400 and the motor was still very weak. had to be rebuilt and rehoned because of syn being used to early.
