Title: If No OMP, can a synthetic oil be used in rotary??
Post by: Mir on May 27, 2011, 12:10:09 PM
Hi everyone!

I am running no OMP (oil metering pump), So if I use fully synthetic say 10W -40 (miller oil "cfs" Competition fully synthetic oil) which is sold for 45 pounds and you get 5 liters for it, would that affect my engine?? I don\'t think it would affect my engine! Because, the oil is lubricating the inner component parts and it has nothing to do with rotors or apex seals etc!! I m really interested in CFS oil which is made by Miller Oil..

If you think it would, then why???

Plz any input is welcome!

If you\'re pre-mixing and have removed the OMP then some Ninja-You-Can\'t-Bend-It synthetic stuff will do a better job that the mineral required when you\'re using an OMP.

As long as you aren\'t using the fully synthetic as premix :Hammer

All will be fine, all other moving components would probably really benefit from a decent synthetic
