Hello all,
Just did a used oil analysis on my 2014 Ford F550 Powerstroke 6.7. I ended up trying Archoil 9100 this oil change. Miles on oil are 5,633 and 8 months. Total miles on Truck are 11,399.
Here are the results:
TIM: Archoil adds potassium, boron, and some sodium to the oil, so that's where those elements are from. We haven't found benefits from using it such as improved wear, but it doesn't seem to hurt either. Your new Power Stroke is wearing pretty well, with just iron on the higher side of averages (showing typical wear for oil run about 6,500 miles). That could be from residual wear-in, or it may be normal for this Power Stroke and the use it sees in your RV. The oil was in good shape with a strong TBN and no fuel contamination. Resample in 1 year/6,000 mi to start trends.
Universal Averages
ALUMINUM 8 12
CHROMIUM 2 2
IRON 63 32
COPPER 5 4
LEAD 1 0
TIN 0 1
MOLYBDENUM 41 29
NICKEL 0 1
MANGANESE 1 1
SILVER 1 0
TITANIUM 0 0
POTASSIUM 1419 7
BORON 935 34
SILICON 11 7
SODIUM 11 7
CALCIUM 957 1666
MAGNESIUM 1168 511
PHOSPHORUS 1065 1020
ZINC 1340 1189
BARIUM 1 2
Values Should Be
SUS Viscosity @ 210°F 70.1 66-78
cSt Viscosity @ 100°C 12.98 11.9-15.3
Flashpoint in °F 470 >410
Fuel % Antifreeze % 0 0
Water % 0 Insolubles % 0.3 TBN 9.5 >1.0
Does anyone know where the Iron comes? It is a class C motorhome which is always hauling 17,000 ilbs+ all the time. What do you all think? Thanks in advance for the insights.
Best,
Tim
