I'd take a wild guess that it's the synth oil -- it is "slicker" and flows
better, resulting in lower indicated pressure. But it is probably working
just fine.
Personally, I can't see spending the big bucks on synth oil just to change
it three or four times a year, and meanwhile watch it seep down the sides of
the block and drip on the driveway <g>... but maybe yours doesn't leak.
