My 375,000 UOA

I guess it's the beginning of the end.

Blackstone has always blown smoke up my behind talking about how wonderful my 7.3 was. Now they're telling me to be cautious because my motor might not hit 1,000,000 miles.

I guess I should probably decide what I'm going to do by the time I get to 500k or so.

It deserves a gold star, and a spot on the fridge....
Keep up the good work Chris.

Nice looking report. Glad to see the old girl is aging well!

I am doing a UOA on a truck with 1/6th the mileage and I am hoping for a report that looks this good!

Very good Chris. I am a firm believer in Rotella T 15w-40. That's the only oil my truck has every had with no oil use between oil changes.

Looks freakin awesome Chris!

Did you change brands or type after the 270K change? Delo 400 maybe? The magnesium & calcium additive levels are different. Maybe rotella changed the formula a bit with the new regs.

Sorry to have been a stranger lately - on the road quite a bit the past 3 months. Hope everyone is well!

Nope - Delo 400 has shown very good to excellent results on UOA reports in the 7.3L.
