[QUOTE="Earl Thigpen, post: 525208, member: 3999"] Mr. Kerley, I would stay away from additives to your oil. The oil must be compatible with the "O"-rings and seals (or vice-versa). Most of the additives I've seen advertised say they stop leaks. They do that by softening the rubber in the seals and sometimes it works for a short period of time. Then the seals really get hard and you wind up with more trouble than you had before. Wouldn't worry about changing it so often unless it gets dirty (don't know how that happens) or is run really hot. [/QUOTE]
