Hello,
=20
All of your observations are a factor. Here are some comments from an =
article about synthetic oil leaks:
=20
Synthetic oil WILL NOT cause leaks. It may however make already worn-out =
gaskets/seals more evident, by leaking past them, and/or cleaning any =
sludge and other gunk that was sealing the existing leak. This is =
because Synthetic oil has much better cleaning properties, flows much =
better than conventional oil, and hence also lubricates much better than =
conventional oil (This is a good thing).
=20
I use a GL-4 synthetic gear oil in my transmission and it leaks. Believe =
it not not one of the leak mechanisms is from the interior along the =
bolts and drips from the bolt head on the exterior. I am changing the =
gaskets on my transmission and trying bonded sealing neoprene washers on =
the fasteners.
=20
I may be pursuing the impossible dream of a leak free Healey.... Harold

Subject: Does synthetic oil leak more?
I am not a leak expert, but I find this hard to understand. For there to =
be a leak there has to be a hole. Is it because the synthetic oil =
molecules are smaller than the non-synthetic oil molecules? Given that =
the "holes" come in different sizes this seems illogical. Is it because =
the synthetic oil is more slippery? How is that measured? How much more =
slippery is it? =20
