So a while back I told you guys I would report back here after doing an oil analysis to see if I had fuel in my oil.
Well seems that I do.
Little background on my truck:
Has 11,000 miles, most of my driving (about 90%) is highway. I don't baby this thing at all, I haul ass on it frequently. I mainly use 89 octane. Oil was changed at 500, then 5000, then 10,000. At the 10,000 mark is when I sent this sample in. Oil used has been Castrol Edge full synthetic. After this last oil change I switched to Pennzoil Ultra Platinum because I found it cheaper, so at my next oil change (15K) I will send another sample for comparison.
When I changed my oil, I did get a pretty strong wiff of gas from the oil. When I do the oil changes on my wife's car which has a GDI engine, I barely smell gas in the oil, if at all and that car has 50K miles on it.
Anyways, here's the report. Let me know what you guys think. Not too worried about it, thats what warranties are for, but thought id share it with you all.
