synthetic Oil vs Detergent and non Detergent

Posted by Binder-Man on February 08, 2002 at 06:45:50 from (216.166.202.220):

When I built my 1937 F-20 and my 1939 M 3 years ago from the ground up,I got in touch with Quaker State company and Pennzoil company, and told them what I had. These tractor's are used mainly for show,parading and hay rides, my question was with a brand new motor, how would synthetic oil work? Both companies told me if the tractor is not run allot condensation would build up in the pan from setting and water will not mix with synthetic oil causing damage to the motor. What do you people think about this? Both my F-20 and my 1939 M have new motors and are kept in heated buildings. I start them at least once a month in the winter and are left running untill they reach operating temperatures. The reason I am interested in synthectic oil is I think it gives you better lubrication on your cylinder walls during start up. What are your ideas on this.I am using Pennzoil 10w30 now.Thanks for your input on this...Binder-Man
