[Farmall] Synthetic oil in old machines

[Darrell Ratliff]

Richard,
    My opinion (for what it’s worth) is that today’s oils are far superior to what was available in the 40’s & 50’s and before so I have no problem with using synthetics in old equipment.
Assuming you are not using non-detergent oil in your truck and tractor I would not hesitate to switch to synthetics.

   I can't find an authority who knows much about synthetic oil in old engines.  I have a 48 Farmall and 53 Chevy truck, and wondering if the new oil would be good for those engines.  Appreciate hearing if anyone knows.  Richard Brown, Boyne City, MI
