Yep, far too many leave that winter air in when driving in summer. No good can ever come of that.

My guess it would leak out every old gasket and **** you off. I know it would **** me off. I do not enjoy cleaning like some EVO owners do......

I run syn BF, no leaks, but louder.
If I run too high a viscosity, it kinda fades on and off.

Two weeks after trying it, I got posterior vitreous detachment in both eyes. It's just too slick and peels the wall paper right of the retina.

I've heard it can cause an erratic blink pattern, which could induce seizures.

If you are using syn blinker fluid but haven't switched to Ultima Ionic Surfactant Battery water then you are just storing up trouble for the future....you guys just don't do your research properly.
