This analysis had 8 quarts of Delvac 1300S 15W40 and 7 Quarts of Delvac 1 5W40. (15qt Sump) The normal oil change interval is 5K and severe is 3K. This was pulling my TT up North early this summer and then local driving for a total of 3500 miles on the oil and 26,600 on the truck. Full Flow is a Motorcraft FL-1995 and Air Cleaner is a Donaldson AIS.

This was also my Auto-Rx rinse cycle. Don't have an attack on the 7 quarts of Delvac 1 5W40 mixed in for the rinse cycle. This was a rinse cycle done with high ambient heat, pulling a Travel Trailer through the Ozarks for a total of 2700 miles pulling with full turbo boost at times, and 800 miles not pulling anything heavier than my boat.

Looks pretty darn good to me. The Iron level is a single digit which is impressive in itself for a PSD.

This is pretty much what I run in my truck; 2 gal of Delvac 1300 and 1 gal of Mobil 1 T&S. I currently do 3750 mile oil changes for warranty, but will probably get wild and crazy and go to 5000 mile oil changes out of warranty :^)

Nice to see that some 'common sense' blends, same make with assumed similar ad pacs, seem to work just fine.
 
5000 mile ODI is probably eash to attain with these trucks. Schaeffer's syn blend oil will probably be better at lower cost, and likely good for 10k.
