High lead in Engine Oil after Clutch Change
High lead in Engine Oil after Clutch Change
Put in a new clutch and next engine oil analysis (attached) was sky high in lead. Is this bearings/bushing breaking in?
Don't see how the new clutch would effect engine bearings/bushing unless I'm suddenly developing more torque from a new clutch (doubtful, right)? No change in driving habits.
Should I expect next analysis to be back to normal or do I have a problem developing??
I'll send off the oil after 5K instead of 10K to see if it comes down (maybe a temporary particle streak on a bearing).

I did have a PacBrake air compressor go bad during this oil change.
Any lead in the compressor that could have been injected in the engine as this burned out? I would assume steel bearings. Any lining on the compressor cylinders that might be lead?
