so i have a 2006 alpha1 gen2 with a carb 305.
at layup last fall i couldnt / didnt get synthetic oils for the motor or leg. just ran with the dino stuff in long enough to fog it. i am wondering if it would be better to drain and replace with corect spec before i start her for the year, or use this stuff for a few hours before draining it out to replace with the hp/synth lube. i am guessing the motor wont mind running a few hours on dino, but i dont know about the leg.
thanks for your opinions.

Re: silly oil question

I have been told that once you make the switch from dino to synth, going back will cause sludge to start. Have never tested it so can't say if it is true or not.
