[QUOTE="Chris@FreedomMotorsports, post: 732329, member: 8341"] What I have found with AMSOIL engine oil is that the lower TBN oils like the OE series oil do not in fact hold TBN as well as their better oils. I normally always recommend their Signature series oil to my customers regardless of their intended intervals. The Signature Series line of oils is one that is guaranteed to run 15K in severe duty service. Although I am indeed surprised to see the TBN and Boron that low. Was this the first change with AMSOIL? If so then it could be that not enough of the old oil was out of the engine and it had a negative effect on the AMSOIL from mixing with it, I have seen that often. If it wasn't the first, then I would move up to at least the XL series line if not the Signature series line. But, the results from your analysis aren't bad enough to say there is anything wrong with the oil or the engine. [/QUOTE]
