Oil Analysis Report

[james accordino]

I'm no rocket scientist, but I'll give it a spin.  The
Army also does oil analysis.  It's required by time.
Also tranny and diff.  They look for suspended metals
(bad) and breakdown of the primary lube (also bad).
Your final analysis says "no action required".  To me
this means all the oils lubricating parameters are
within spec. and no signifigant levels of suspended
metals were found.  (This is really good.)  You could
continue to run that oil charge as is.  Sounds good,
huh?  Nice to know that at 7.5k miles, the oil is
still good to go.  Doesn't make me feel so bad for
leaving my oil in there for 12k miles.  Bad puppy.
