2nd Oil Change for the Bus

dubbs · 06-11-2011, 01:44 PM

I know how oil threads can get, but this one may not be too bad..

When I changed the oil around 600 miles I used Suzuki Dino oil and a Suzuki filter from the dealer and spent some retarded amount like 50$.. I'd like to use Shell Rotella T6 5w-40 as soon as possible.. Just wondering after 1k miles if that would be a problem.. If the rings are seated by now, I really don't see why it would, but I hear a lot of people not switching to synthetic until a few thousand miles.. What's your take on this?
