I have to agree with Henry,
I had no leaks on my spit untill I changed the oil in the diff. I thought
why not go with synthetic. Now I drip oil where ever I go. I needed a diff
rebuild anyway. But I swear I had no leaks untill I switched.
I had a vintage motorcycle do the same thing. Could not keep oil in the
cases after I changed to synthetic.
I believe it's been stated on the list that it's fine as long as all your
seals are new or in REAL good shape.
Just my 2 cents
