Hi All!
has using your preferred oil enabled you to go longer between OEM reccomended equipment teardown & rebuild intervals?
Of course, UOA's would provide a basis for doing that.. I'm just curious because everyone talks about extended drain intervals as being the determinant of an oils value.
I say short drain intervals are cost effective ,if it means you can go an additional several thousand hours between teardowns, right?
Or is it preferred to lengthen the drain intervals to save on oil cost, but do overhauls at OEM reccomendations?
Let me know what you do, and what oil you use if you go with the extended overhaul intervals.
