I have since the dawn of time I have heard use the same oil or you will have to flush after a short period of time. Speaking to the guy at Alkin he offered me Anderol 755 in place of 750. He said you could go from 750 to 755 without a flush but could not go the other way. Has anyone ever done this? Is 755 that much better than 750?

TIA

They are both synthetic di-ester oils. You don't need to do any elaborate flushing. Its not a huge change like mineral to synthetic, just switch and be done with it.
