[QUOTE="EIGHTLUG, post: 1052149, member: 21349"] If you don't believe the longevity associated with today's synthetic oils, send a sample of your old oil to Blackstone (or any Oil Analysis Co. of your choosing) and they will tell you everything you want to know about your engines health, rate of wear, oil life remaining, contaminants, etc. I used to manage the largest IBM Data Center on the planet. There were 36 CAT, Cummins, and Detroit powered generators on site. Approximately 50 Mega Watts of emergency backup power. This also equated to thousands of gallons in oil changes, annually. What we found through rigorous sampling and testing is that today's filtration and oil technology is far and away superior, in the industry, than just a decade ago. We were seeing oil with 200 hours of run-time were very low on contaminants (dirty) and still retained superior viscosity. These diesels typically ran @ 1,800 RPM with greater than 20% load. The net of it is, we were able to extend our oil change intervals while still retaining the utmost in reliability. I now perform the same oil analysis on my personal vehicles. It provides great piece of mind and data. [/QUOTE]
