Engine/Transmission (1998.5 - 2002) WooHoo! Oil analysis

[Texas Diesel]

Everyone should get at least one sample analyzed.



Everything was good except, Molybdenum (47), Calcium (2808), Phosphorus (1162). These all seem to be anti-wear additives.



Lead was 5 with the average being 3, is this normal?



Fuel content was <0. 5, Antifreeze & Water were 0. 0



Iron was 16 with 55 being average, I wonder if my SuperPlug helped here



Silicon was 5PPM with the average being 12 so I assume my greased lip K&N in the factory box is doing it's thing.



PS, I love the spell checker thingy.

To really put your numbers in perspective, also need to know miles on engine, miles on oil, and are you using a bypass oil filter or just the superplug and full flow filtration? Both Si and Fe go down pretty dramatically with increased engine miles, and go up with miles on that specific oil change.



Even without that data, you're right, your numbers sound darn good - low wear, no air filter problems, and no surprises like glycol or fuel in oil. You are right to be
