The way I look at it is my crankshaft, connecting rods, and turbine shafts are all getting micro polished by the metal floating around in the oil that the filter is not catching.. It's a free blue printing/ polishing process for less friction on a race motor.😎
Sounds logical, that's effectively what I'm doing but wanted to get a sample early on, I'm not concerned about fine metallic particles that I can see that look like metallic paint during break-in. If the motor is self-destructing, it'll happen in short order. I've got to dig up some pictures of...
Well I'll take a pic of my metallic brown oil, I'll continue changing it at regular intervals and overtime the metal will disappear. I'll continue to get oil samples and send it out to Blackstone and we'll see how long the motor last. I put about 20,000 miles a year on my car. It's just...
As promised the sample, and my oil looked like dark brown metallic paint, I had a few small chunks of metal the first change. I'll be doing another oil sample soon. I'm hitting 4000 miles so the next sample will have 2600 on it. Here's the importance of changing oil early on I think my first oil...
This is my first post but the picture looks worse than it is. This is exactly how my oil looked even after 2 oil changes and 3000 miles later, but got better with time and miles, there were brass and metal chunks at the bottom of my 1st oil change, Happens on all new engines, my new Kawasaki...
