quote:Sounds like you know something... Hummm I'm doing a PTFE additive right now, I have my first sample in (2323miles) and reported it here... The next sample at near 4600Miles is on the way... I currently have about 70 miles SHY of 6000 miles and plan on pulling a sample - hummm depends on the 4600 mile one I guess (maybe at a forced drain or maybe ???) Just What do I look for to protect me and my BERINGS? When does this ACID suppose to build up? How long do I need to let my OCI run before you are certain I will have build-up! No, Joke, I'm serious... I wanna know... What are the numbers suppose to look like to show you they are being eaten up... please give me an example on the low and high end of the scale?
