UOA Testing Companies?

What are the UOA vendors and what are the differences in service and costs?

Thanks...Tom R

Most people seem to use Blackstone or OAI. OAI is owned by Amsoil I believe. OAI will send you the results via their website and you can get a history for each vehicle.

I also believe you get TBN at no cost by OAI and its extra at Blackstone. OAI also does some extra testing if the oil being used is Amsoil, Oxidation Nitration I believe.

Anybody know if TBN is included in the testing, from the Schaeffer's lab in Reno?

"OAI is owned by Amsoil I believe. OAI will send you the results via their website and you can get a history for each vehicle."

OAI is indeed AMSOIL, but the oil analyses are done by independent labs (this is recent--before it was done by Cleveland Tech, bought by Stavely Services).

Some people use Dyson Analysis, excellent service, expensive, but worth every penny.

Anyone tried http://www.analystsinc.com/ ?

They seem to be part of the LabCheck program from Castrol.

Anybody ever send there oil to the Schaeffer's lab in Reno?

If so, how long did it take to receive your results?
