synthetic oil and leaks I'm thinking about changing over to synthetic oil. Have any of you experienced new oil leaks when going to synthetic. I don't have any leaks at all right now. Thanks!

i wouldn't switch to synthetics if the car has over 70k. also it depends on how religious the previous owner's oil changes were, how he drove the car and under what conditions.
i bought a mustang at 110k from the original owner who actually showed me a complete printout of his oil changes...plus, this guy drove like a sissy and was kind of feminine too (lol). i switched to synthetics and it start to leak noticeably w/i a month or so.
