Yes, you can reset the light w/o changing oil, & most people do.
But what i did on my new rigs was this:
Change oil at 2k-2500 miles w/ synthetic, and then i changed again at 5k with synthetic. This IMO is sure to get rid of any excess dino oil in the engine.
I have now switched to amsoil, and will be changing oil at 10 or 15k depending on OA results. OEM filter will be replaced every 5k until i use them all up. Then i'll switch to the amsoil filter also.
A little off topic, sorry. Yeah, just reset the light.
