I've been using the standard Yamalube stuff. I've been considering switching to a blend or a full synthetic since I need to change the oil this season, but now I think it will just leak worse with those.

I have a slight drip as well, but I know mine is coming from the filters. They never seem to be tight enough. this year I am going to clean that area really well when I take off the filters. I am wondering if there is oil on the surface that caused the filters to never get snug enough to stay.
