I said back and forth, you switched, then back. no forth.

I think it has something to do with seals. I'm really not sure. Especially in higher mileage engine, something about seals get old and sludge and deposits build up around them, keeping them sealed. synthetic cleans tehm off and reveals leaks.

i also thought conventional swelled seals more than synthetic.
