Oils

Did you know that the majority of people dont know the difference between mineral, synthetic or semi-synthetic oil. Whats more frightening is that the majority of people dont know which oil to use on their cars engine.
Most breakdowns occur due to poor engine maintenance and servicing. You should always change your oil in a service aswell as ensure it has enought, too much can flood the engine and too little can cause the engine to seize.
Mineral oil

Mineral oil is a natural oil and is basicly a refined version of the oil that comes out of the ground. Althought your engine can run fine on this with a regular service. Mineral oil will never give the protection you can get from a synthetic or semi-synthetic oil.

Semi-Synthetic oil

Semi-Synthetic oil is basicly a mixture of mineral and synthetic oil
