Oil change, thoughts

[beefiedoubleoh]

Blackstone labs can tell you how long to run your fav oil in your motor. I've sent 2 samples appx 3 years apart - first recc'ed 9k mi intervals, second was appx 8.5k mi.

I run Pennzoil Platinum on Fram tough guard filters - drain and fill @ 7k, then full oil and filter change at the next 7k. Installed a fumoto drain valve & now the drain/fill is super quick and clean.

As already mentioned, Blackstone Labs is the way to go, I have an analysis done on my truck and welding machine once a year. It doesn’t cost hardly anything and it gives you a really good indication about the wear and overall condition of your engine, as well as a good guideline for oil change intervals. I change my trucks oil every 10k miles, and I do the air filter, fuel filter and water separator element all at the same time just so I can always keep good track of everything.
