Whats thoughts on switching to Amsoil in 91 7.3 idi truck? Good? Bad? Going to cause oil leaks?
Amsoil ???

My thoughts are it's a complete waste of money. The soot builds up in the oil and it'll need to be changed long before the oil breaks down.
I agree. Any oil will get contaminated and need to be changed. Unless you add an oil bypass filter setup.

Very top quality oil. The only way to take advantage of it though is to run extended drain intervals. If you are changing you oil at 3000 or 5000 miles you will be throwing away good oil. Oil analysis is recommended
Synthetic oil won't cause oil leaks.That's a myth that needs to die!
I have been running amsoil in almost everything I own with great results. If you are serious about using their products sign up for a preferred customer account. It cost a couple bucks but you get everything at dealer pricing. It will pay for itself the first time you use it.

Between what my truck drinks and leaks there is no value in paying for synthetic oil, but I do think Amsoil is quality stuff. I recently filled my trans with Amsoil and also switched my 2-stokes over to Amsoil Sabre.

The semi synthetic Rotella isn't expensive. I ran that in a '93 Corolla, and run it in my 3.8's in my Lesabres. '97, and '05. Keeps the gas motors really clean.
