High Wear according to most Labs

[buster]

We are all perfectionists here. Nothing wrong with that. But this was taken from the BITOG home page from OIl analysis and Wear Check as to what is considered Normal to Abnormal. Little reality check...

quote:

---

Engine problems predicted with oil analysis.

Silicon (Si) and
Aluminum (Al) 10 to 30 ppm
Iron (Fe) 100 to 200 ppm
Chromium (CR) 10 to 30 ppm
Copper (CU) 10 to 50 ppm
Lead (Pb)* 40 to 100 ppm
Lead (Pb)* 10 to 50 ppm
Aluminum (Al) 10 to 30 ppm
Tin 2 to 5 ppm

Rarely, if ever, do we ever see these kind of numbers, which is why engines can last long on even the cheapest conventional oil.

or that is the spectro of a used oil that has had a cleaning additive in it and has picked up all the gunk in the motor.

I knew someone would eventually get back to the homepage.

are the high wear numbers per lab based on 3k oci?
