Conventional oil, also known as regular oil, is a petroleum-based product that has been used in internal combustion engines for many years. This oil provides lubrication to the internal moving parts as well as reduces wear on the engine. Motor oil such as conventional oil is crude oil that’s mined from the ground. Oil also helps protect your vehicle’s engine from high temperatures.
Synthetic oil is also petroleum based, like regular oil, but it provides an enhanced lubricant with more stability. Synthetic oil oxidizes less easily than conventional oils as well, and are better at retaining protective properties. This type of oil is typically more expensive since it’s chemically developed from petrochemicals that make them superior.
