Results from the Blackstone test. About 120 miles on the sample. Pics of the filter cut open were a couple of posts ago.
Findings:
High metal readings. Way high. They say some of this could be the result of the engine “awakening from slumber” and washing out some corrosion. But it’s not all from that. Their words. Very cool because that’s what it is. They say if the oil pressure is good (it is though I’ll put a real gauge on it after the floor) and it runs well (it does) then do some quick flushes to clean it some more. Keep checking the filter and oil for metals and send another sample in 500 miles. It’ll need to get cracked open anyway but if I can put it off for a while that would be deluxe.
