But it might be a good idea to get an oil sample and send it into a lab.
Let science look at your oil. It is a lot better way to judge it than smelling, tasting, rubbing behind ears, etc.
For about $20-30, you will get a good snapshot as to the condition of the oil and the engine.
Were I in your position, after the oil analysis, I'd probably run a good engine flush, such as made by AMSOIL or BG, and then use a premium synthetic engine oil. I've seen very good reports on Auto-Rx, but it does take some time and miles to work.
