Default oil analysis is in. . .

and here is the result. not too bad seeing I'm not too friendly to the go fast pedal. routinely saw RPM's in the 3K area and boost numbers that should have killed the holset turbo a few times. not to mention power breaking and enough soot to make a locomotive grin.

heck the TBN of the amsoil 15-40 is 12, and after 15K it was 8.36. . .I still had plenty left.

you were just in the wrong areaAtlanta can be rough in certian areas, but get away from atlanta going south on I75 or I85 for about 30 min and things get better. . .go north and all you hit is traffic, go west and you need to drive aboutan hourbefore things get better. . .dont even think about going to the east.

ORIGINAL: tobinj

We stopped at a BP just off I-20 heading east so go figure
there are alot of BP's on I20. . .if you were inside the peremeter(I285) then yea, you were ripe for the picking. then for about 10 miles past I285 going east just keep rolling till you get into Conyers, it gets a little better.

Don, I can see how people would get obsessed with doing sampeling. the info was quite shocking to see how even though my oil looked like the sludge pumped out of the bottom of the Exxon Valdeze, it still had alot left on it.

if you need for me to yank a trailer in half for ya just let me know
