    This direction of thought come from the early days of synthetics when people were making the first transitions. Many with older engines complained that the synthetic oil was causing engine seals to break down prematurely, causing leaks. The reality was that the oild were seeping throught the already failing seals at a much higher rate than the standard oils would. Same viscocities, synthetics flowing miniscule openings at a faster rate than standard oils. How it effects thing related to this... I dunno, it was only a piece of my thought process. Nothing more.

    LOL, well, the more thought processes we get, the better. I remember hearing about those stories, but the way it was explained to me was a little different.
