This was my first run with Schaeffers 9000 Full Synthetic (the other two UOAs are M1). Glad to see it didn't shear down as much as the M1 has, but the wear numbers took an unexpected jump. I only had 25 hours of idle on this cycle (14%) and the OLM was at 39%...tracking with Ford's apparent 10,000 mile hard stop on the OLM. I know the wear metals will increase with miles, but I had 32hrs of idle (20%) and 61hrs (30%) on the first and second cycles respectively.
Ran a Fram Ultra for the first time and used premium fuel. I ran a lot of highway miles on this cycle, including a 1,400 mile weekend trip.
I sent a sample of this oil off to Blackstone for a VOA back in April. That info is Here
