The first analysis showed a coolant leak and the second is after prestone stopleak. Blanks on the second set of numbers were blank on the form. I wish sodium and potassium had been measured.
second numbers are with a Bosch premium filter
and mixed city/highway driving
Schaeffer oil sample number:319085
Schaeffer's Labs comments:
Contamination and additive depletion levels normal. Maintain current oil drain interval.
I am disappointed with the overall wear and sulfur. I used techron and later B-12 chemtool after a suspected bout with bad gas. Hesitation and poor idle were the symptoms. Since then I have only bought gas at Shell, Chevron, Exxon, Conoco or Amoco stations. No more problems.
Also, after I thought the coolant leak was plugged, I waited another 800 miles and changed the oil. After draining the pre-coolant fix oil I filled with supertech oil for a 1 minute idle and drained again, then the new filter and mobil 1 were put on/in.
Something I thought was odd was how thin the mobil 1 was during this interval. I've used mobil 1 often and this is the thinnest I've seen it. When I pulled the dipstick out oil instantly started to drip off the end.
