Hello,

Yes it would benefit the engine. That's for sure. It would clean some gunk out. But the degree of cleaning depends of the baseline state of gunk in the engine. You may have to keep using synthetic 2 to 3 more oil changes to fully reap its benefits.

I think MMO has better gunk cleaning property. Had used once. Poured half a bottle into crankcase and left it there till next oil change.

On the other hand synthetic oil is best to prevent gunk from happening in the first place, as compared to cleaning them out (i.e. have to use them all the time).

Regards,
Amarin.
