This is second sample posted for my Volvo vnm630 with 10.8 liter d11 engine used for trucking all over the u.s. The only constant is the weight of 73,000-80,000 lbs gross weight.
Unfortunately don't yet have auxiliary air conditioning so sleep in hot humid summer means idling. This oil has 301 hrs just idling. 679 hrs total.
Truck had 216,431 miles, oil 19,694 at sample time. It was sampled with pump and now that I have results will change it tomorrow (6/21) with about 22,000 on oil.

Happy to see fuel and copper/lead back to good levels. This truck isn't babied...it pulls lots of mountains and pushes thru high winds. Does good for such a tiny engine (405 hp/1450 lb-ft). Note how little boron is left compared to voa's of delo. Use fleetguard filters in all positions. Very happy...got a lot for my money here
