Here is something I came across which caught my attention since I normally use 100LL av gas and may interest some of the rest of you.
I am looking for other sources to see if there is a general consensus about use of 100% synthetic oil and 100LL or rather against it.
I am currently using Mobile 1 as my break in oil

Hi Ed,

The article summarizes pretty well the stuff I've heard & read about pure synthetics in piston a/c engines using 100LL. Were you using Mobil 1 before your incident? If so, did you see any evidence of the lead buildup when you did your teardown?

(sorry that I forgot to make the connection between your use of Mobil 1 & avgas & mention it to you)
