Previous UOA
Finally! After a month I have the results back from my oil change on 4/25. I put in the sample information online, but when it got scanned in at their facility, it didnt come back to anything so it got shelved. I emailed back and forth a few times and got it sorted. Finally recieved the results this morning.
Oil was Maxlife Syn 5W20, but I added a quart of Synpower 20W50 about halfway through to quickly boost the viscosity into 30 grade, which appears to have worked.
Filter was a Fram XG2 I reused. At the end of the OCI it had about 18k miles on it.
Still using Lubeguard Biotech oil treatment at 3oz/qt

Oxid 16
Nitr 11
Lab is OAI/Polaris
After peaking at 27ppm last OCI, the Al is finally trending back down. Very happy. I did look at the filter for signs of metallic contamination from the timing chains, but found none.
