I was told { Or heard } That if you switch to Synthetic Motor oil or gear Lube that you should NEVER Switch back to the original oil's / gear Lube's.

Also what is " Synthetic " Oil products,is it regular oil's Refined in a different mannor or is it completely Man ( or women ) Made products
combined & blended for a specific use?

Those are my Questions / now my thoughts

I know in my Large International Dump truck we use Synthetic Gear Lube
The truck has Temp guages in the transmission & both rearends.
I am amazed how cool the 3 units run,I don't think I have ever seen above 150* / 155*

With our Flatheads being prone to running warm / Hot would the use of Syntheic motor oil Help to cool the motor by not adding to the heat build up?
