Well ... No one else has to do oil analysis.

Hi,
I personally do oil analysis out of curiosity. Virgin oil analysis
has very little value except to serve as base-line for used oil analysis
and as source of data about the oil.
Oil analysis _can_ identify problems, but most of the people who do
oil analysis over on Bobistheoilguy do so out of curiosity and to help
each other understand and better maintain their automobiles.
As for recommendations, it's always a good idea to recommend
maintenance regime that is _conservative_
I personally would not go past 10,000 miles on 9-5 with fully synthetic
Saab 0W-30
No one other than Jason, Greg and I have to do oil analysis. Jason
has an Aero, and I have a 2.3 LPT. So, our used oil analysis data should
serve others as source of information. We on the other hand find out
precise information about health of our engines, and we also have the
satisfaction of helping others with information.
All anyone else has to do is read this BB to get our used oil analysis
data and extrapolate the information to their own situations.
thanks
Jae
