How do I deal with fuel dilution in a new F150 Ecoboost?
I have been changing at short OCI around 2500 miles or 4000 kilometers, & don't want to have to change more frequently than that, when running a full synthetic
My last 2 oil samples have been at 4.0%, & 3.4%, the first oil analysis came back at 8.47%
I had the truck in to Ford for a service appointment, & they wont even document it on the invoice as a customer concern. I provided them with the results of my oil analysis, & they say they wont do anything until a check engine light comes on, & to run longer oil change intervals! This goes against any thing that I have previously learned.
Fuel dilution should be under 2%.
My 40 Deg C Viscosity is flagged at a "lower Critical" at 44.4, when should be closer to 61
My 100 Deg C Viscosity is flagged "lower reportable" at 8.5, & should be closer to 10.3
Is it something I should be worried about? Oil is due for an oil change, & might push it to 5500 kilometers or around 3400 miles.
The built in oil life monitor still shows around 75% oil life remaining.
not sure how to attach the actual Oil analysis for viewing XPS document, or adobe document
