Question about Blackstone analysis

So, I'm on ths long RV trip and I forgot to bring the blackstone kit. Had my oil changed and they captured me a sample in a small bottle with a screw on cap. When I get home can I send that in and get a good report or is it too old. By the time I get home I'll have two samples, 1 will be 5 weeks old and one will be one week old. I figure to send one as soon as I get home and the second as soon as I can get them to send me a kit. What think?

I would be inclined to send in your sample in your current bottle if you can rather then transfer it.

I have a few kits here too.

Blackstone site says that you can even send samples that have been store for months, as long as the container was clean when you put the oil in it.

Thanks guys. I'll order a second kit a couple days before I get back. Don 't want it to get there too soon, as my trip is already straining my relationship with our little post office.

Stanley,

Kinda off topic, but have you ever stayed at the KOA in Yellowstone? I am working on next summer's trip now

Sorry but no. We have kin in Cody so we stay there (Hook ups in the yard) and take a couple day trips to Yellowstone. Most of the time I pass on KOA. They are almost always overpriced. But, I'm sending this from one (Laramie)and yes it's overpriced. But the best thing is you can always find them. If you have any interest in the old west don't skip Cody and the Cody Museum. It's worth the trip, and I don't say that about many tourist attractions.
