AutoRX treatment question

[BrianJ]

I'm planning on 2 treatments with auto RX. I have the basics down, but have a question on how many miles on the dino oil after the 2nd treatment.

1. Change filter and oil (I'll be using Exxon Superflow 10W-30) and add a bottle of Auto RX. Drive for 500 miles.

2. Change oil/filter. Drive for 750 miles (still on dino oil) then add Auto RX. Drive additional 750 miles, then drain/change oil/filter.

3. Change oil/filter. Drive ???

miles? Drain, then add synthetic oil w/ 3oz maintainance dose.

TIA,
Brian

Are you fixing a leak? If so, then run #3's dino oil until you see the leak has slowed down or stopped quite a bit. If you're not fixing a leak, but instead are just doing a cleaning, you can run #3 as long or as short as you wish, and then go back to synthetic whenever you want.

Thanks Patman. There's no leak, but I want to do it the right way the first time.

My understanding is that Auto RX reconditions the seals, so I want to make sure that I give the product the ample opportunity & time to do its thing.
