  1. 5w20 seems light - I use 10w30 dino in my 95 XE with 100k miles on it.

    If your just doing crank case to syn you wont see an over all improvement as the parasitic drag of oil on the crank case is negligible .

    Now if you do all drive train fluids to syn then you may see a 1-2 mpg increase ...... MAY!

    As far as damage .... non will incur but with the amount of detergents in the synthetic if you have any weeping or slight leaking , it will progressively become worse as the detergents clean away the gunk at the seals .

    Also , if you already burn oil , you WILL burn more.
