LUCAS oil treatment question... Synth v Reg.

I gave the farm truck an oil change and I usually put a little Lucas oil treatment in there (in everything i have w/ a motor).

SO I was at Murray's (local place that actually carry's motorcraft oil filters) and I noticed they now have Lucas Regular and Lucas Snythetic oil treatments.

I was thinking. Huh.. All these years I've been running Mobil 1 Fully Syn Oil and putting in Lucas oil treatment (about 1/4-1/3 bottle each oil change). I have no idea if I was running regular or Syn.. So I check the bottle and it was regular.

Can you mix Mobil 1 Syn, with Lucas Oil treatment regular (petro)?

What possible harm could it cause?
I've been doing this w/ all my vehicles, but the Farm truck is the only one I run Syn oil in. Jeep gets the mixed stuff.

BTW: the syn Lucas treatment is over twice the price of the regular stuff.
 
good syntheitc oil without additives FTW! im sure you could probably use either one, obviously one is going to be better suited for different types of oil, but i dont see the point personally a good oil needs NOTHING to work well

Why buy an oil then add an additive to it when you can buy a better oil from me and add nothing to it.
Because Mobil 1 doesn't need any additives from the begining... :icon_bigg
 
okay...

So what does mixing Lucas Oil Treatment which is NOT a synthetic with Mobil 1 which IS a synthetic do?
