I normally use synthetic oil, but for the past few changes I've been using regular (and high mileage).

By all means don't listen to those idiots. If you've been using at least a group III oil -M1, PP or better you won't need it. Put some redline or motul in there if you want to clean it safely if you used shiet oil. But if you didn't you won't need to do anything. YOu could cause probs if you dislodged sludge from crap oil with a flush.
