That's good to know.

Just did a transmission fluid change, and noticed some increased oil leak from the front of the engine. Last time I changed my oil was the first time I put R&P in it, in April. At that time I noticed some dried grease that I wiped clean. This time I noticed it looked more wet. I haven't seen any oil stains on the concrete though.
Perhaps it was leaking before, and I just noticed, cleaned it, so this time it's more prominent? Or perhaps R&P cleaned something that was previously plugging a leak? Either way, it seems relatively slow leak. No drop in oil level.
Cleaned it up again, and will be doing an oil change probably around December/January. So will see what happens in a few months.

ATP AT-205 is a very good seal sweller/conditioner.

I was thinking about doing some MaxLife, as it's supposed to have the extra seal conditioners in it. Though I'm not sure about seal sweller. I've also heard that some people add these things and it turns a slow leak into a fast leak after a while.
I had the opposite experience. VRP has slowed down my valve cover gasket leak considerably.
It's only traded on the Saudi stock exchange as Aramco. I doubt many if anyone owns Aramco stock. And Valvoline is a very small part of their business.How much do you have invested in Valvoline stock?
Just reporting my experience.
How do you figure it has slowed your valve cover leak, considering its cleaning abilities?

How would you figure if someone said a HM oil did it?
