Is Mobile One a real synthetic? I had heard that it was still a 
petroluem oil, only refined in a different way. When I think of 
synthetic, I think of a none petroluem base lubricant, ie bean oil & such.

It seems to me that if the lubricant reduces friction as claimed, ring 
seating would be difficult. I know that prolong recommends not using 
their product until the engine has been given time to seat the rings.
