In answer to the Moderator's question, yes, I use synthetic in my Honda Odyssey, Series 60 Detroit, Allison transmission and 20kw generator. I use Delo 400LE 5w40 which costs $20 per gallon at Walmart. Note that Delo 400LE 15w40 simulates synthetic, but is not. In my view, the price of synthetic is insignificant compared to engine and transmission wear.
