vehicle is a 1998 chevy k1500 4x4 5.7L vortec
172,000 miles.
I've had this truck for a while and it is a great truck. I drive used cars everyday at my job and I think this truck is in better shape than half of them. Anyway, I switched to supertech full synthetic about a thousand miles ago and I've already developed a small leak at the front of my oil pan. I never saw a spot of oil on the floor before hand.
Think this leak would have happened anyway? I wanted the synthetic for the cold starts up here in ohio, but I guess I might switch back to a high mileage oil. Recommendations?
