formula shell 5w30, 7586 miles, 1zzfe

[wildLoon]

thirty mile commute each way from one end of dallas county to the other right through town. Powerflo SL14476 oil filter. The previous uoa was a run of Rotella 10w30

looks good a 8,000 mile oci's might be perfect for you with that oil try it with a different oil filter(Pureone/Toughgaurd) and see if the silicon drops a little

All those wear numbers are within the "noise" readings. I hope my uoa comes back looking this good.

Shell Formula PCMO has a lot more Molybdenum according to Petroleum Quality Institute of America.

Is this the right oil or maybe older bottle.

 

[Steve S]

Nice.

The last few I've seen on here, FS has had drastically reduced moly #s. Maybe they reformulated? (for the record, they've both been blackstone reports...)

FS seems to always show really low single digit numbers in normally aspirated, mechanically sound engines. Always shears a little, but always great numbers. Impressive oil for the price with a reasonable OCI. The numbers don't lie, but I don't like the idea of pushing conventional past 7k. You have the right commute!

The numbers look great, but I agree I wouldn't generally push dino past 5K. The long highway commutes and mild weather made it possible here. I like to keep the TBN above 3.

this uoa makes me happy: this is the oil the hyundai dealer uses for o/c's in my wife's Elantra, which gets an o/c every 4k-5k miles.
