    I know I've been spamming too much on the forums but what's one more gonna hurt.

    What oils do you guys use on your 450/510 SMR?
    I've been using Castrol 10W-50 full synthetic. Decided to try another brand of 10W-50 to see if there is a difference. Got the oil in the mail today and realized it's SEMI-SYNTHETIC.:banghead:

    Can I use that oil in my 4-stroke husky when the manual demands FULL-SYNTHETIC?:excuseme:

    It's only a few cans before going back to Castrol.

    I've been told only Amsoil and Royal Purple are true full synthetics here in the states regardless of what the bottle says. Not 100% about this but told from a pretty reliable source.

    I would not worry about it.

    Just don't try to put a million miles on the oil.

    Change it a little early.
