Not noticeably better.

It was the reason I tried the thinner oil in the first place. Not that my fuel economy is bad, it was more for interests sake.

Changed over from penrite enviro plus 10w/40 full syn to castrol edge 5w/30 full syn a3/b4 .Very suprised at the difference ,idle is so smooth and engine alot quieter ,better fuel economy .Dont know if the inside of the engine is any better but it feels alot better, Sticking with the castrol.
