excellent report. I think very few of mine ever had that low of readings since I heavy towed a lot.

I would stick closer to 5K oil changes though because of the valve train wear.

Without the typical fuel dilution,and the really good wear numbers and high TBN numbers I think I'll let go at least what this last change went and see what the numbers say.
