Oil Note

After doing deletes and 4 oil changes later I finally looked at my oil after it had 1650 miles on it. IT WAS VERY CLEAN, STILL AMBER COLORED. No longer black and sticky like it was before deletes after just 100 miles.
I post this just for those that haven't yet deleted the junk. I think my engine will go forever now. Its just amazing how much crap is pumped into our engines.

I just did my deletes and can't wait to change my oil. How long does it take to finally filter that nasty stuff out of the motor? 1 oil change or a few?

I went from 12 and 13 MPG to 19 and 20 MPG. No joke.
