Synthetic oil is more expensive than conventional oil, period. However, using synthetic oil can actually help you save money over time.  Learn the many ways how a synthetic oil change can help your economy.

How a Synthetic Oil Change Can Save You Some Money

Many people choose conventional oil over synthetic because of the price. Who wants to be spending extra money  if both products have the same lubrication purpose? If your car manufacturer doesn't explicitly  tell you to do so, you might think there's no point in going for the synthetic oil change. Did you know that by getting synthetic oil you could actually be saving some money? All Service Oil prepared this post to show you how synthetic oil can save you some extra cash.

Less Engine Wear

As the oil starts losing its lubricating powers, it makes the engine have to work harder.  The fast moving components in your engine rub together causing friction, high heat, and the breakage of tiny metal parts. Conventional oil breaks down faster, losing lubrication and causing engine damage. Since synthetic oil breaks down at a much slower pace  it keeps on lubricating your engine and making it run smoothly. How do all these things relate to your wallet, you may ask? By using the superb lubrication of synthetic oil, your engine is less likely to break down because of wear and friction. You will be saving hundreds or even thousands of dollars on repairs simply by getting a synthetic oil change. Let’s not forget the fact lubrication reduces the amount of strain applied to the engine. Less strain means there’s no premature wear and a longer life expectancy.

Oil Change Intervals

How often do you change your conventional oil? If you strictly follow the recommended oil change intervals, it must be around every three months or 3,000 miles, right? That’s at least four oil changes per year! Synthetic oil, on the other hand, can last up to 15,000 miles until it needs to be replaced. If you think about it, you’d actually be paying less. Conventional oil needs to be change much more frequently because it breaks down faster and it can develop sludge that can later on harm your engine. Those are things you don’t have to worry about using synthetic oil. It takes longer for synthetics to break down and it doesn’t form sludge. Quite the contrary, a synthetic oil change can clean off that preexisting sludge, so you can enjoy a cleaner engine for a longer time. Buying an expensive oil like synthetic oil, only needs to be done once or twice a year, and it continues lubricating for a longer time. A well-lubricated engine has less chances of breaking down, which means less visits to the mechanic. Splurge on the oil the first time and start saving some money after that. If you're going to be pay more money for oil, make sure you get the best quality possible, AMSOIL synthetic oil guarantees excellent lubrication.

Longer Lasting Fuel

Your driving style affects your car’s fuel intake. You could try other driving techniques to reduce your fuel consumption, you can also switch to synthetic oil. A badly lubricated engine needs to work harder to move and, by doing so,  it burns off more fuel. Synthetic oil does such great job at lubricating that your engine barely has to make an effort at all. The smaller the effort the less fuel spent. You won’t be seeing immediate changes as soon as you get your synthetic oil change, so don't be disappointed if you don't. Over time you will notice how you’re spending less time and less money at the gas station.  Getting an AMSOIL synthetic oil change isn’t the only way to save on fuel, here are some other useful tips on getting more mileage out of your gas tank.
