i would not reccomend switching to full synthetic yet, I would run whatever suzuki would have put in it and wait to put synthetic until the next oil change or two. Do some oil searchs. Almost everyone will say the same thing.

Sooner the better. Change your filter as well. You might need filter wrench to get filter loose.

Drain plug is 17MM and please be careful tightening it back.
