Re: Synthetic oil vs Regular oil
Rumor has it that conventional oil has an additive that causes the gaskets to swell, which may improve sealing.
Synthetic may not have it. I suppose it depends on the brand or type. An additive (Lucas?) can be used if synthetic seems to "cause" a leak.
I went to Royal Purple at about 36k miles - everything is still dry.
