RE: synthetic and conventional oil question

["Fry, Larry" <LEF@chem-tronics.com>]

No need to worry about running conventional oil after synthetic.  (And don't
let anyone make you feel guilty for not continuing to use synthetic. Unless
VERY unusual conditions will be encountered, conventional oil, changed
often, works just fine)  
I can just see the threads now.....

Subject: synthetic and conventional oil question


I bought a used VW Rabbit that has Amsoil in it.  I don't know if it has had
Amsoil from day 1.  I need to do an oil change and have regular Castrol oil
at home I was planning on using.  Anything wrong with this?  I know that
switching from conventional oil to a synthetic can cause oil leaks, but I
haven't heard anything -ve about going the other way around.

Another question.  Are the oil filters for 16vs and the JH 8vs the same?

Thanks,

Victor
