You might clean up some seals and reveal some leaks. Otherwise, you very well could be fine.
Good luck.
I thought it was the other way around. Changing to synthetics reveals leaks? What do you mean "clean up some seals"?
Oh poop. You're right-on; I misread your post.
Switching to dino oil should present no issues I can think of (I've gone both ways with oil, and sometimes go back and forth).
The seal cleaning would have been if you had run dino for 100-120K and now were going to switch to synthetic (the detergents in synthetic might have cleaned some poop out of the seals).
Apologies for my misread.
No worries!Im losing a quart a week! Not burning it, it has minor leakage at the back of the pan but nothing major. My lower intake was never retorque after my T-Moss addition and have a feeling its getting out somewhere through the passages in the heads.
a quart a week is not major leakage?
dude, you need to get that fixed.
WOW! I remember when you started posting here and your car had like 16,000 miles on it or something like that. Your car is a warrior!
If you're not burning or leaking any oil (other than the intake), I wouldn't see the need to go back to dino oil, although it wouldn't hurt. The intake leak obviously needs some attention. I would recommend getting an inspection mirror and checking that out.
bummer, you probably could have bougth a honda gas saver for the price of a year's gas 124 miles a day..
