I didn't want to hijack another thread, but I gotta ask the collective wisdom here. Not the internet expertses, but the people that REALLY know what they are talking about.
Is it really just this simple? Aren't oil filters the trashcan?
@Vitamin Yoda - sometimes I'm a smarty pants, but this one really has me thinking. I need more than oil just has heaps of trash in it, which it shouldn't, if a filter is doing its job. About all that comes out of my sump is used up oil darkened with soot and diluted with gasoline.
EDIT: and wear metals etc..... but measuring in ppm is still measuring in ppm.
