The weight of conventional oil will even make a difference in whether an engine drips. I had an occasional drip (about the size of an eraser head) using conventional 10/30. I switched to Valvoline 20/50 VR1 Racing (recommendation form Eric/ekrupa2 who also runs a 402SR/TW) and I no longer see the drip. Coincidence or I maybe I have a self sealing motor?
