I was actually going to swap over to full synthetic ... I sea foamed the jeep it runs good now, the PO used to run a heavier oil and first change it was thick and black as hell. I sea foamed last oil change, and I'm changing now (2200kms later), hopefully its not thick and black.


Have you ever dealt with fault codes on these trucks? Dunno about your truck, but in my jeep if you take the key from the off position, to the "ON" position (just before the starter kicks in) 3times, and on the third time leave it in the "ON" position, the ODO will tell you any codes you got. My trucks got p0420, and I'm scared to get it fixed, I'm guessing its gonna cost a buttload.
