Synthetic never breaks down? And you never have to change it? Seems like Amsoil recommends changing theirs once a year, provided you use their oil filter and change it twice a year. The website says this: AMSOIL Synthetic Motor Oils are highly resistant to the destructive effects of heat, and do not break down like petroleum oils. This means that AMSOIL Motor Oils can provide much longer drain intervals than conventional lubricants. That does not say it doesn't break down. Even if you manage to keep it perfectly clean, I find it hard to believe that it doesn't brake down any all......... This does sound like snake oil, but I'm not sure it is coming from Amsoil.............
