Check out the site www.bobistheoilguy.com. They have lots of OA reports from people all over. It's a great site, more information on oil and testing then you will ever want to know

The TBN is quite low for 2400 miles. (After 20K miles I was still at 6.7) Is the Rotella the syn or dino? (Even the dino starts at 11.5).

I let it idle for about 5 minutes before I take off, and the oil is almost at op temp as hot as it is here in SC...

I'm usually pretty close by the time I get to work, it depends on traffic if I actually crest the middle of the gauge or not.

Digging up old posts here, but I was wondering if Blackstone is still the leader in UOA's, I know there prices always have been a little high. Are there others and what are their prices?

thanks
