Hi Curt - here's a 1 month + reminder of our previous conversation... ;-) (no I'm not that well organized, I just came across this by accident) ;-)

Thanks for the offer Larry, I have a couple kits left, I'd like the long form 
next time if possible. How would I remind you of that?

I'm still waiting for Brian to put up some data. He says Mobil 1 has changed 
and isn't as good. I provide data points spanning 6 years that says he's wrong, 
he just questions my data...

During the Oil Analysis test, the viscosity it tested at 100C.  a 15W40
should test at 40W  (not below, not above) at 100C after 4000-500 miles,
perhaps more...

The oil analysis report is broken into 3 basic parts - metal
contamination - looking for excess copper, lead, iron, alum, etc, then
there's the Additives section where the normal additives are shown with
their levels.  Finally theres the physical part where viscosity, grade,
water presence, glycol presence, etc is shown.

I can send more info if you;re interested in buying some kits?  I can
provide this info to anyone of course - which includes a sample Analysis
report.  The sample I use is a sanitized version of a real test - a long
distance trucker gets his oil tested with me and I have a sample page
with 5 or 6 tests on it.

Sorry I'm getting to this late -

What kind of viscosity is 40?  Did they test it cold?

I didn't do TBN, viscosity was 40 on both, M1 5w40 was the oil.

Viscosity and TBN?

And where are your results pray tell?

Upfront I'll admit I haven't done TBN tests.
