same old, same old.fuel on last 2 runs bugs me a little.
199K on the clock, has turned 200 a few weeks ago.
filled w/new flavor to see how it works out. Rotella T6 5/40 going to run to 7500 and see what shakes out.

I wonder if you have an injector leaking fuel into the cylinder after shutdown.

at 200K not out of the realm.

7ppm iron on a 7800 mile oil run. Wow.
Other than lead everything looks alright. It doesn't seem that the fuel dilution is contributing to accelerated wear,other than lead,which may or may not be connected.
If Amsoil was producing those kinds of numbers I wouldn't be switching and 1 run of a different oil isn't enough to establish a trend with it but it would be interesting to see if it helps any numbers.
Thanks for posting. Chalk up another W for Amsoil.

Leaking injector makes a lot of sense. At this point tho, I wouldn't fix it.

I'd use cheap 10W-40 in it, and change no more than 5k. An old Toyota could handle 10W-40 even in the winter.

Your RT6 plan sounds like a good one. Looking forward to seeing if it helps...
