I run it in all my air cooled engines for convenience, ATV's, Lawn tractor, snowblower, generator. I even use it in my water cooled automatic ATV. However, I have noticed one of my ATV's weeps significantly more with it than with Mobil 1 10-40 or Synpower. Not a question of cleaning out dino gunk, I have run other synthetics through it. Is it the detergent in the HDEO, and is that harder on seals/gaskets. Or does it just flow better than the heavier weights? Would a couple ounces of seal conditioner help it out?

BTW, The wet clutch has never been smoother than with the Rotella
