desertdude Posted April 17, 2020 Report Share Posted April 17, 2020 More than that do you know how to read such a lab report? They will just tell you what you have in your oil and how much of it. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is true- labs will not analyse the results for you, so you need to know what the numbers mean both in relation to each other, and to min/max allowable limits/levels as published by the oil formulator(s) and/or regulatory bodies. Generally speaking, only lubication engineers and industrial chemists know what the results mean in these contexts. As for laymen, the best you can hope for is to have the lab tell you that the quick lube joint you paid to change your oil used mineral oil when they should have used synthetic. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
