Synthetic-blend oil question
It'* been said that using all synthetic oil - when switched from using conventional oil - tends to cause leaks due to cracked seals and gaskets, and slip past worn parts causing smoking depending on the condition of older car engines or engines with higher mileage on them.
Just wondering if these problems and conditions apply when using SYNTHETIC BLEND oils also? It seems that if have an older engine or an engine with higher mileage and want to get better engine protection, using synthetic blends instead might be a better choice.
