Hey,
I have a 2000 LPT 9-5. 55,000 miles. Switched to full synth on last change and INTIALLY had lots of blue smoke at start-up. Over the last month has diminished to an ZERo or just occasionally on short trips (<5 miles).
Should I be concerned? Have searched the board with mixed opinions. ANYONE have similar results with the switch.
FYI, NO OTHER issues. Idles strong, no engine issues.
I would appreciate any input.
Thnx.
ChrisC
