PLATINUM SPARK PLUGS & SYNTHETIC MOTOR OILS

posted by  someone claiming to be RLK-STL-USA on  Tue Mar 4 05:50 CST 2003 [RELATED]

I have been monitoring this site for several months, and I get the impression that the dealers do not recommend "platinum" spark plugs for turbos.Why?

I have a 1998 s70glt and need feedback.

Also there seems to be a group that favors "synthetic" motor oil in turbos rather than "petroleum" based.Why? If this is a water cooled turbo then the oil shouldnt see high temperatures then why use the synthetic or blended motor oils.

any and all feedback would be appreciated.thanks for a great forum.
