Phooo! I have not had any issues with synth in my old cars. No leaks or mess. What it does do is clean out the snot in the engine and make it run much better. Fuel leaks, coolant leaks, washer fluid leaks I have had. No oil leaks that popped up after using M1. If it leaked prior to the switch, I did not get more, but less spillage over a few thousand miles. Seals had failed long before, so repair was the only solution. If using synth makes for leaks, then your seals were garbage to begin with.
