Synthetic Motor Oil
Hello,
I just picked up a nice 2009 EZGO ST Custom 2+2 with the Kawasaki 13 HP 401 CC (model FJ400D) in it and being that I run Mobile One Synthetic in all of my vehicles, I wanted to run it by the forum to see if it would be ok to run Mobile One 10w-30 Synthetic motor oil in this cart. I assume that it would be ok, but wanted to run it past the experts! Thanks! |

Re: Synthetic Motor Oil
If you think it is broken in good, miles or hours and it being an 09. I would think it would be and should be OK to use. If it were mine I would.

Sounds good! Will be changing to Mobile One 10W-30 once I get my new filter this week.

Re: Synthetic Motor Oil
In any case,as long as the motor has about 30 hours or more on it,definitely switch to synthetic.In automotive-applications always wait until 4-5000 miles,before switching,otherwise there will be ring-sealing problems,due to lack of friction from synthetics(Fresh motors need some friction to break-in and set wear-patterns).Hope this helps.

Re: Synthetic Motor Oil
The engine is broken in so I will be switching to Mobile One Synthetic 10W-30.
