    I think it would be a good thing to test the compression of your cilinders.
    If you have blow-by of bad oil it could be the cause.
    Condensation of fuel in your sump could also cause problems!

    I have no idea if this is true or not but I heard it is bad for your engine to go back to using conventional oil after using synthetic. Something happens to the rings I think? I love using synthetic though so I wouldn't go back anyway. I just thought you might want to be aware of a possible issue.
