I tend to use the oils specified by the manufacturer, or exceed those standards. With that, all the farm equipment I use and own is over 20 years old, and I use today is better than when that equipment was originally manufactured. In my vehicles, I generally will run a synthetic oil. The only one I do not use a synthetic oil in is close to 300k miles and I don't think it makes a great difference in the longevity of that car.

I have found on various forums, this is a common occurrence with that engine. There are also some modifications to be made to the crankcase ventilation system, which will aid in fixing this. The one key benefit I have noticed from the use of synthetic oils, is the easier starting in the winter and I have also seen the auto batteries lasting a great deal longer since the switch to synthetic.
