Thats pretty much what I figured. I probably only have a few hundred miles on this oil so I'll let it go for a while and see if the problem subsides. In regards to the synthetic blend, if you ever compare pure synthetic and synthetic side by side, they both actually feel just as thin etc...even though the synthetic blend is actually a 70/30 mix (synthetic/regular). I'll probably just wait a few weeks and try regular oil again. I don't race it or anything so I'm not too worried about using regular oil. Thanks
