Overall I'm very well pleased with how this oil performed this spring @ summer. Will be doing the same routine next summer. For fall @ winter I mixed up 3qts Schaeffer 10W-30 @ 2 1/4qts 15W-40 Blend.

Very nice! You went double the distance of the M1 run, but yet the iron is still lower, and lead wear is zero! Awesome! And the silicon levels look extremely good too, so your filter methods definitely work!

Stick with the Schaeffer's!

Great analysis...

Looks great Ryan.

Great numbers! In defense of M1, Jeep engines do like a higher vis. oil.

I really wonder what the Amsoil 15W-40 would do here?

Good report. More evidence that using an x-30 is not the best oil for the engine. You had mileage left in it too ..but 6 months is a decent OCI.

Looks like another nice run on an xw40 oil in a Jeep motor. Definitely a solid choice for these engine conditions.

Now you've got me excited to see if my numbers were any better on my summer run of Rotella 5w40 that I sent in yesterday.
