Thanks.

Let me try to post it another way. #@$%!

I can't do it either without posting all my info.

Finally got it to work, I HOPE.

What oil??

Did you just change oil brands?? That will sometimes cause a elevated copper reading...

You had some pretty good silicon in there... that can be an antifoam agent of the oil or indications of a bad/poor air filter or air filter seal...

The TBN is quite low... I don't see that low of TBN with almost double the miles... and that's running a CJ-4 oil.

I'd scrutenize the air filter and intake for leaks, and run it another interval to get a trend... a single UOA can't really tell to much...

I am guessing delo ci-4 because of the moly. Agree with Steve. Tbn probably took a hit due to dirt ingestion.

The oil tested is whatever the dealer gets in bulk.



Iv also got a piece of screening material between the filter and the housing to keep vermin out of the filter.



It hasnt affected the performance but may explain some of the odd readings.
