I have run Mobil 1 and Amsoil in the early 90's, as well as Redline Synthetic after that, with some Valvoline dino oil in between, and every time I ran synthetic oil, I had some oil leakage, not bad, but a few drips overnight. I recently changed to Amsoil V-Twin (after reading this thread), and have had no problems with leakage, so they must have done something to the formulation. BTW, my engine has about 140k on it.
