With Synthetic, you don't change your oil every 3,000 only with DINO OIL.
Depending on the filtration level you are currently looking for FRAM is at
the bottom of the list while FRAN (toilet paper type) is first then K&N,
mobile 1. I wish I still had my FRAN canister. .

Subject: DML: Oil & Filters
I have 136,000 miles on my dakota, so you know I have had my share of oil
changes. But lately I have been hearing a lot of talk about people who use
Mobil 1 and the K&N oil filters. For the past 3 years I have been changing
my oil every 3,000 miles, using Pennzoil 10w30 and a fram PH16 Oil filter.
I have had absolutly no problems whatsoever. I looked into using Mobil 1
and the K&N filters, but when 3000 miles seems to come every month, its hard
for me to justify almost 3 times the cost of a normal oil change.
Unless theres a compelling reason why I should switch, I'm sticking with my
system.
