Hi,
First time I'm posting this, so not sure if this is the correct way
Petrol Engine 4.2 Litres
Code:
OIL MAKE -
Metals (ppm)
Aluminium (Al) 5
Copper (Cu) 8
Chromium (Cr)
Iron (Fe) 15
Lead (Pb) 5
Tin (Sn) 1
Nickel (Ni) 1
Contaminants and Additives (ppm)
Silicon (Si) 11
Boron (B) 5
Sodium (Na) 7
Potassium (K) 1
Phosphorus (P) 945
Molybdenum (Mo) 7
Magnesium (Mg) 413
Calcium (Ca) 2164
Zinc (Zn) 1042
Physical Tests
Water (%)
Nitration (Abs) 15.2
Viscosity (cSt,40°C) 63
PQ Index
Glycol (Abs) 0.6
Petrol (% by Distillation) 2.4
This is an RB26 and I was using German Castrol 0w30.
The viscosity seems a little low?
The diagnosis said:
Quote:
All wear levels appear within acceptable limits for
first sample. Silicon level (dirt/sealant material)
satisfactory. Water content acceptable. Fuel
dilution satisfactory. Please check recorded
viscosity against requirements
The engine never really sees over 90 degrees, but its more common to run 10w40 rather than 0w30.
Feedback appreciated.
Thanks,
Gareth
