heavy duty oils have additives that fight the build up of acids in the oil.. these additives are exteamly base or alkali additives and they have the side effect of cleaning the sludge off what ever they come in contact with...

then yes.. newer hd oils will clean this and then you will spring leaks everywhere... as the sludge is removed and the bad gaskets are exposed..
these new hd oils can also get a million miles between overhauls, something the older oils could NEVER do...(remember when you overhauled a car at 60,000 miles?? good ole 30 wt non detergent oil did that for you.)
