As long as it's broke in already... just change. Don't use a oil w/ "solid moly", it acts like ballbearings, w/ the clutch plates. You want "soluable molly"... give your chosen oil manf, a call. I use Schaeffer semi... great oil... I live in e. WA... where high temps/ dust and lots of dryland wheat farming... a LOT of farmers, w/ lots of VERY exspensive machinery... swear by it. Scheaffer is right up there w/ Amsoil... but MUCH cheaper!!!! about 3$ a qt less!!!!!!!!! Look on line for specs, and testimonials. I like Napa gold/silver(made by wix) filters... purolators too.
Free and clean, Ripp'n

this has been covered a lot

full synth is fine at mile 0.5

amsoil, repsol, hell there are a lot of people using mobil 1 gold cap for cars out there with no problems

but yeah the main thing to look for is no moly

even honda has a full synth out now
