Dino to Synthetic
Guys
I am currently using dino oil and I am going to change to synthetic. Adrian's book says that you should avoid mixing dino and synthetic. Any suggestions on how to deal with this when I make the switch as I understand that some dino oil will be left in the engine.

Don't worry , no bad things going to happen .
A little dino in alot of syn , is just fine .
Next oil change , you will have near 100% syn .
If you do the change your self , you can let the car sit over the drain pans over night or longer and let it drain every last drip that it will drip , drip out , if you really want to get as much of the old oil out as can be .
