So I did not completely add everything in on the sus viscosity and CST viscosity that I should have added it The main part of the viscosity testing is at a given temperature which is typically around operating temperature they take the oil and they actually put it through an orifice and they give it a rating on how it travels through the orifice and the range is for sus viscosity 57 to 65 and CST viscosity 9.4 to 11.9 are the normal ranges for a 5W-30 engine oil The temperature at which the oil is run at directly affects how it flows so when I said the oil shearing that wasn't necessarily correct it was more along the lines of a given temperature at which the engine is run at and the oil flowing at a given rate
Well done for taking on board my comments and making an effort to correct what you said. I hope this will help to address any misinformation. Nice to see some responsibly taken.
Rich, this is fantastic. Seriously, I've gotten used samples before, but it never dawned on me as to the need of the base virgin sample. I know this isn't cheap, and time consuming for you. Once we all recover from Christmas and build the piggy bank back up, by donating to this channel and Ford Boss Me, we're the ones who benefit the most. We sure appreciate it, sir.
Thanks for this big procedure to get the very important Noack value...sorry, in Europe Mobil Exxon has quit several sorts of oils dependend to vehicle manufacturers..even now I tried to use lubricant advisor for my car..and there is no recommendation to it! That tells me, they d'ont make oils for several car makers..only that EP or ESP stuff..crazy I just find out, that this Ravenoil must be the closed values compared to Schaeffers.
I appreciate you showing and explaining that oil analysis report Rich. I new most of it but you answered the rest thanks 👍🏻 That's a great idea about analysis of the fresh oil you intend to use for a base line!
I agree with needing to know what the virgin oil sample readings were so you can compare it to your used sample. I just received my virgin and used oil sample back from blackstone for liqui moly top tec 4200 5w30. If that is one of the future samples you would like test contact me and I can send you the virgin oil test report
Rich I have a question about the sync 3 on my Ford F-150 2018 Ford says that my sync 3 is up to date but they sell Navigation updates is that correct. Thanks
I have a new vehicle on order (RAV4 Hybrid), and I drive about 15,000 miles yearly. I'm trying to decide on the best OCI. Five thousand will be my max, but is there any big advantage to doing it at 3K? I keep my cars for at least ten years.
I'm not a mechanic, so I don’t quite have the experience of the gentleman with this channel, but I can say I have the same vehicle and 3K would be overkill on that engine, if I do primary highway driving in the summer say like vacation, I’ll run it to 7k maybe 7500 and it still looks honey brown. In the winter or if I drive hard lots of idling then I go 5k and the only time I really see it look dark is with a lot of idle time. To be fair I haven’t done a oil test but I’m at 100k and I’m not using a drop of oil.
If I was you I would stick with 5K on a hybrid especially something as clean as a RAV4 I would not do anything under 5K I would just keep it right at 5K

I appreciate the time, effort and expense you've taken analyzing different motors oils. Thanks for explaining the information on the reports.
Doing god’s work. Generous and thoughtful to post these baseline results for all to see.
I didn’t know you had this channel so I subscribed 👍👍

Subscribed. Great idea. Curious to compare the same oils of Today vs +3,4 and 5 years ago.

Have you tried a kickstarter on the channel to stop wash out?
Just trying to help to get this off the ground when it's dragging.
Meaning?
Good stuff

Lol this is him

Cool, you asked yourself for permission to do it :)

Not even close
