This is with Wix XP oil filter so it seems the filter did a good job. Gonna take this up to 10k miles before dumping it. It also seems that the Hot Shot’s Secret Stiction Eliminator helped a bit in keeping oil stabilized and TBN held up nicely for 6.5k miles.

I had oil burn and many others as well as myself believed it was coming from the low tension rings getting dirty and sticking. Stiction Eliminator can be used for both diesel and gas engines. It worked very well and my oil burn has gone away. Was nearly a quart per 1,000-1,500 miles. Has not burned any during this UOA.

Both were Valvoline High Mileage 5w-30 and the previous 10k run was topped off with a 0w-20 when I changed the oil filter half way so it turned it into a very thinned out 5w-30 thick 5w-20.
Thanks I had not heard that.

I've used the Stiction Eliminator to clean out a Chevy 4.3. It did do the trick running it the whole 5k OCI. Oil came out brown and under the valve covers was down to metal with some slight varnish. The cake on the rockers was gone.
Works on the same principle as the once popular Auto R-X; Esters, detergents, and dispersants. They throw in magic nano-moly stuff too. IMHHO better than Auto R-X which did nothing for a Jeep 4.0 I had.

Good the know !!!
That hotshots brand is popular at truck stops. I’ve used their anti gel diesel additive during cold winters when I was still driving big rigs.
