oil change

Can I use synthetic oil in my 2007 E250 which only has about 8,000 miles on it?
Is synthetic compatible with the engine and won't it harm?

Yup, synthetic oil can be used with no issues. It's completely interchangeable with regular oil.

Probably the better thing if you only drive 1400 miles a year.
