the other thing leaking gasoline into the cylinders does is wash the oil
off the cylinder wall. gasoline is a good solvent and it does clean the
residual oil (which you want there) off the cylinder walls really well.
that's probably the worst thing because you have no lubrication when the
motor is restarted until the oil flow is restored. that condition
produces bad wear on the walls and rings, and that has nothing to do
with oil change frequency. like i said, it's bad juju. g

Ahh! THAT makes perfect sense. And that's not something that high flow
synthetics are going to be any better at preventing either, I would guess.

newp, only thing that stops that is keeping raw fuel outta the
cylinders. i'm not a real fan of synthetics, they have a tendency to
leak thru gaskets and seals where the dinosaur based oils don't.
molecular size seems to be the culprit there with the syns having
smaller structures. i haven't tried snake oil, but it certainly been
marketed to me in a variety of ways.

our standing joke at the shop is to acquire some high tension wire from
the power company and use that for speaker cable. if it's good enough
for 100,000 volt transmission lines..... vbg
