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 a=
re smaller than the non-synthetic oil molecules? Given that the "holes" com=
e 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?=C2=A0=
