Hello, Here is the second UOA from my 2017 F150. I ran Klondike 5w30 synthetic oil for this test. I changed the oil when this sample was taken. I used the Klondike oil and a motorcraft filter again. Let me know your thoughts.

Hello, Attached is the first UOA from my new truck - a 2017 F150 with the 3.5L Ecoboost. Nothing too interesting to see here, that I picked up on anyway. The oil and filter was changed when this sample was taken. I used Klondike sythetic 5w30 and a motorcraft filter. I plan to complete a UOA...

Hello, Here is the latest UOA from my 2013 F150 with the 3.5L ecoboost. I switched from M1 to Castrol Edge. This is the first test with the Edge. What are your thoughts/comments? Thanks!

Hello, Here is the latest UOA from my 2013 F150 Ecoboost, running 5w30 Mobil 1 oil & a Motorcraft filter. I switched to Castrol Edge 5w30 for this OCI (with a Motorcraft filter again) - hoping for better results. Does anyone know what fix Blackstone is referring to in relation to the fuel...

Hello everyone, here is the latest UOA from my wife's '13 F150 ecoboost. Not much to report here. I refilled with M1 5w30 again, and a motorcraft filter. Thoughts?

Hello, Here is my latest UOA from my 3.5L ecoboost. I have owned this truck since new, and completed a UOA at every oil change along the way. This is the second OCI on M1, not sure why it is so much better than the previous run on M1. I refilled with M1 again. Observations/comments?

Hello everyone, attached is the lasted UOA from my 2013 F150 ecoboost. Since new, I used PP exclusively, this is the first UOA with M1. I blame the cold weather for the slightly increased iron level and fuel dilution (same thing happened last winter). I refilled with M1 and a motorcraft filter...

Does anyone has opinions/experience with this oil: Mystik JT4 0w40 I wasn't able to find much about it online. Is it new or just not very popular? I recently bought a Yamaha Nytro snowmobile (fourstroke) and decided to give this oil a try in it. It is regularly priced at $9.99/L and goes on...

Attached is the most recent UOA from my ecoboost F150. I have used PP since the truck was new, and done a UOA at every oil change so I now have a pretty good baseline with the PP. I have switched to M1 just for curiosities sake to see how it compares. I plan to stay in the 10,000km OCI range for...

Here is the latest UOA from my F150. I was happy to see the iron come down but dissapointed that there is fuel present again. As always, let me know your thoughts & comments. I refilled it with PP and a motorcraft filter. I have used up all my PP and will be trying M1 for the next oil change...

Hello all, Here is the most recent UOA for my '13 F150 ecoboost. The truck now has 41,274km on it. I have completed a UOA for every oil change since it was new. I refilled it with PP 5w30 again. I think I have enough PP left for one more oil change, then I am switching to M1 for a while to...

Here is the latest UOA from my 2013 F150 Ecoboost. There was a 5,000km road trip in this OCI. It was refilled with PP again, and a motorcraft filter. I think i will extend this OCI to around 10,000km. What are your thoughts?

Hello everyone, here is the fourth UOA for my 2013 F150 Ecoboost. Let me know your thoughts. I refilled again with PP and a motorcraft filter. I plan to keep my OCI's around 8,500km for now and continue with UOA's.

Here is the third UOA for my '13 F150 ecoboost. It looks like it is breaking in nicely. I plan to start extending my drain intervals to 9,000-10,000km now and see how it goes. It was refilled with PP and a motorcraft filter again. Let me know your thoughts.

Hello, Here is the second UOA for my '13 F150. I am very happy that the fuel dilution is much lower in this sample. Overall i would say it is much improved (which is to be expected). I am using the same combination again for this OCI - PP and motorcraft filter. Plan to go 7,000-8,000km for this...

Hello everyone, here is the first oil analysis from my new truck - 2013 F150 ecoboost. This is the factory fill, which was in service for approx. 1 month. It was replaced with Pennzoil Platinum and a motorcraft filter. I've never completed an oil analysis on a new motor - hopefully the wear...

Is there a place on this forum (or anywhere else) that lists all the current sales/promotions on oil, filters, etc...? I think it would be helpful if this information was compiled in one central place so with a quick check you could see the current deals in your area and stock up on what you need.

I have another question, that I couldn't find the answer to with a quick search. With all the talk of UOA's and extended drain intervals, is there a test that can be done to an oil sample to determine how well the filter is working (i.e. how clean the oil is)? It seems like determining the...

Hello Everyone, I am still quite new to all this oil stuff - I posted UOA's for my Silverado and Tundra in the UOA forum, which leads me to these questions: 1. When comparing cheaper dino oils (i.e. Formula Shell, Valvoline, Petro-Canada, Quaker State, Pennzoil, etc...) is there any that...

Hello, This is the second part of my post (see Silverado 1500 UOA post for part 1). Below is the UOA for my 2007 Tundra 5.7L. I am more pleased with the Formula Shells performance in this vehicle, but am still wondering if there is a better option. My tundra is my work truck and depending on...
