Oil was ran in my 2004.5 "600" cummins. Mostly trailer towing and severe use. Have been using CenPeCo on farm for ages and wanted to see how it did in a UOA. I also need to know a better way to post these. Thanks.
Miles on oil: ~5000
Miles on Unit: 16,700
"Nothing too unusual showed up in the first sample from the Cummins in your Ram. Potassium
typically shows anti-freeze contamination, however, it's fairly common in new engines (possibly from pre-lube grease), so it may not be a problem. It should drop next sample and is something we’ll keep an eye on. Other than that, everything looks great. Wear matched up well with averages. Universal averages show typical wear from the engine type after about 6,500 miles on the oil. Your oil appears
to be holding up well. Try 6,000 miles on the next fill.
