is warranted for these temperature sensitive engines.
I am of the opinion that running synthetic oil solves most of the longevity/breakdown issues associated with the 2.3 turbos.
So, would a little more help in the form of more reliable cooling be worth the switch to green?
I seem to remember Goldberger talking about the merits of switching to Zerex, but I'm not sure if this was someting of a consensus recomendation, or just a possibility being bantered about.
Changing oil types is an easy decision. Changing coolant categories is more ambiguous in its merits vs demerits.
Thank you for the thoughtful replies!!!
Craig
