Oh... that? AK ate a bunch of chili the night before. He blew his assket and shellacked that dude.

Quick question for you guys.... my Expy has "the leak" on the passenger side head. I had a crazy thought, and wanted to bounce it off you guys. I've always put 5W-20 in it, but was thinking that maybe I could at least slow it down a bit if I went to a thicker oil. Do you think putting 5W-30, or even 10W-30 in it would help, or no? I've got 20 quarts of 5W-20 in the shop to do some changes before winter.... but I had this thought.

Whatcha think?

Im gonna open the can of worms- do you use synthetic? I only use synthetic in the Sori-its fairly new and tight-
True or not ive heard many guys complain that if you put synthetic in an older engine, they leak more.- i use mobil 5000 in my old truck, and in the explorer before that- and as of yet had any issues- so the 64,000$ question is: will regular old dinosaur oil help a weepy motor thats on synthetic?

It's a blend of dino/synthetic. Can't remember if it was Valvoline of Motorcraft.

Brew, it's a 98 4.6 Romeo.

Yea, It's suffering the "burr problem" correct? The Ford robot defect.
