My oil sample

[ranger 393]

I had a oil sample done on my truck 128,000 miles. What do you think?

How long on the oil? Iron kinda high pending how long it's been in service,

Looks good to me though.

One of the better samples I have seen vs. mine esp. the low silicon. I am guessing the programmer added a non-zero "soot" reading to the oil?

Roughly 8-9000 miles on this sample. This is the first sample I have had done, so I don't have anything to compare it to. I looked at other oil samples from others and mine seemed low compared to some that I saw. I am pretty happy with the results.

With the High TBN and a boat load of calcium left, you could easy go 12-15-20K on that oil.

Your oil sample looks very good, and could probably go for another 10K. You're using a very good oil, and you have a good filtration system to boot, so you are doing good things for your truck.

Thank you that is good to hear. I didn't know if the iron was high or not. I bought my truck new, and it has never had anything but Amsoil in it.

Here's the Blackstone Lab report for three of my oil changes for comparison. Based on the report from Blackstone I plan on pushing my oil changes to 10k miles to keep it simple and easy to remember.

Thank you. Those are great numbers I hope mine will continue to be as good.

Very good sample for the miles. I've used Delo in the past (from Costco) and have a few gallons of CJ-4 in stock. From my research, CJ-4 Delo is unique compared to all the other major brands. It uses a big slug of boron (anti-wear & detergent) with a much lower level of magnesium. The new CK-4 Delo uses twice the mag and only 1/5th the boron amount with lower phosphorus and zinc. Would be interesting to see if you get the same numbers with the CK-4 Delo.
