Oil analysis?

Hi guys,
I would like to do an oil analysis on my 2012 6.7. This will be the first time. I am running rotella T 6 and plan to change at 7500. I don't tow much at all. I was wondering where the best place is to get this done and how to go about it. Thank you

Google black stone oil analysis. They send you the sampling kit free, it's the analysis that costs the money. About $20-25 last time I got one done.

An analysis is worthwhile. I do one about every third oil change.

Here's an old example of what you'll see on the report from Blackstone.

I also use Blackstone labs. It's $25.00 well spent. Very knowledgable and courtious staff. Timely too.
