I'm not sure why cause i know it causes leaking but i switched to synthetic...i just bought the truck and It ran great...so i changed the oil and went with Mobil 1 and it started seaping out...either the rear main seal...or the oil cooler adapter gasket...should i just change the oil again and go back to standard oil...go to a blend for high mileage...or is this not going to stop now that it's started...?
changed to synthetic at 180k miles...i know stupid

My guess is that the leaks were there to begin with. You just bought it...they probably cleaned the undercarriage before you bought it.
