Notes Blackstone :
Castrol GTX (1st run of GTX)
MICHAEL: This first sample (and the second one, too -- we peeked ahead) looks just fine. Our universalaverages show typical wear for this type of engine after about 8,000 km on the oil. Your oil runs were a little shorter, and that's helping keep wear this low. We did find high insolubles in this sample, showing oxidation of the oil as a result of heat, use, and blow-by, but we see that it improved nicely in the next sample, so we're not too worried about it. The viscosity was a little low, though we doubt that's a serious problem. Aside from insolubles, this sample looks great
Pennzoil Platinum: ( 2nd run of PP) (air filter changed out on 1st run of PP)
MICHAEL: Everything looks great in this second sample out of your Accent. You've run this oil more km than the last and the engine didn't even notice. So you might as well go a little longer. Try 5,000 km next time. At this rate you're going to get tired of us telling you how nice this engine is...but who are we kidding? Everyone likes to find out their engine is in good shape. The only thing out of line was fuel at a trace, and this is not a problem amount. No antifreeze or moisture was present, and the viscosity was normal for
5W/30 oil. Great engine
OIL FILTER used : Hyundai OEM
previous oil used before GTx unknown / filter fram car bought used
MMO is used in fuel 4 Oz per 10 Gal. GTX had MMO in crankcase 8 Oz for entire run.
Had also ran Tech2000 TC3w in fuel previous to avalability of MMO
WHAT do you guys think about these? any feedback is appreciated!
Can OP please format this properly? having great deal of trouble with the format Thank You!
