Yea, I would definetly run synthetics but I know that if I use syn with a organic head gasket it may cause leaks through the head gasket and cause black smoke through the exhaust. But is this true with the KA? I have 120k on the clock.

well, here's an idea, i've tried that engine restore stuff, it helped with gas mileage a good bit, but no noticeable power, and i tried the sea foam, i never heard of it till i came on here, it helped a great deal, i have 185k on mine, still snappy as hell
