Re: synthetic in a high mileage YJ

Well, the synthetic oil is better at lubricating, so I guess that would imply that it can squeeze into tighter spots than the mineral oil (which is why it is better at lubricating than mineral oil), which in turn causes the leak. Again, the technology has changed since I learned all this stuff, so I could be wrong...
