Oil usage
Yet another question for anyone out there...
I just need a quick clarifiaction...
I have a 1984 GSL and the shop manual tells me to use synthetic oil, but everyone else tells me that I shoudln't. Which is correct? and whats the reasoning behind it?

Mazda has NEVER reccomended the use of synthetic in their rotaries.
