Could that possibly be 11-17-03
?

Just giving you a hard time

I think it's an excellent showing!

Great catch, it was 11-17-03

those are great numbers, you could definitely extend the interval. What was the TBN?
What kind of conditions is the truck put through? Towing, hauling, etc.

Chalk up another great Delvac 1 analysis.

Delvac 1 and Cummins is a pretty sure combo for a good report.

I didnt get the tbn tested this time. I am shooting for 12 to 14k or once a year oci. I will run this batch of oil 10k and have it tested also will have tbn tested. If the 10k sample is good and tbn sufficient next batch will be changed once a year. I might change the oil filter half way through on the once a year interval. This truck is not a daily driver once it gets started it gets run. I tow my sheep camp fishing and hunting ,also tow the 4 wheelers a lot. I dont baby the truck. sheep camp probly weighs 6000 and 4 wheelers and gear weighs 3000. It gets from 20 below to 100degrees in the summer here. We have 3 seasons july, august and winter.
