If your car stalled in
the middle of the freeway due to the engine overheating for the nth
time, you know that it’s probably time to change your motor oil.
However, if the same brand of motor oil causes your engine to
overheat prematurely, then it may also be a good time to consider
utilizing a high-quality synthetic motor oil for your car.
Synthetic oils are
usually man-made, but derived from natural gas or alcohol. There are
pure synthetic oils and there are synthetic blends. If you’re
eyeing that bottle of pure synthetic oil, here are some of the
benefits you can expect:
Wider Temperature
Range
Synthetic oils have
high natural viscosity, meaning that it can effectively handle
temperature extremes with relative ease. This factor is important to
a car that is constantly put to the test in challenging temperatures.
Better Fuel Economy
One should not expect
that making the switch to synthetic motor oil will immediately make
an impact on your gas-saving efforts. However, it has been found that
it can boost the efficiency of your car by 2 or 3 percent. Moreover,
since synthetic oil is easier to pump through an engine, more energy
is saved.
Longer Oil Life
Besides the terrific
temperature tolerance, synthetic oils are free of unstable molecules
and components that makes it more resistant to degradation or
oxidation. This reduces the need for frequent oil changes, and
protects your car’s engine as well.
