UOA: M1 AFE 0w20 Honda Accord 2.4 (5,401mi/7mo)

2 ppm tin and you're worried? As someone already stated how accurate do you think B_S equipment is? Even if their equipment was perfect, 2 ppm is nothing. I wouldn't lose any sleep over the tin, and I would expect a bit of fuel in the oil short hopping a car, especially during the colder months.

Ironically, my most recent UOA showed a different fuel reading on a B_S report when 5 or so previous reports on the same engine came back measure fuel presence? Could be coincidence of course. However, I'd say my 'driving style' seems similar to yours currently. I no longer have the car for followup tests, but I'd be curious to see one more on this engine in that area.

Also, if you still do relatively short trips most of the time and an occasional highway trip I'd stick with the 20 grade. The only reason I'd see going up a grade is as a last resort to a mechanical issue or just wearing out.

Seems like a good performing engine regardless of lube choice.
