The point 1982911sc makes is correct...that's why I said "of and by itself" Synthetics don't cause leaks....yet for many ( me included) this is exactly what happened once I used Mobil 1 for any length of time...especially in cold weather. I also believe the cleansing properties are the "cause" of the leaks.
The other irony is that ( as I had held as "true" for so long ...but it is false) synthetics are universally thought to have better high temp characterisitics. Surprise...some mono-weight ( 30 , 40, 50) dino oils actually have much superior flash-point and HT/HS ( high temp/high shear) characterisitics. But you hafta look and find out which!
