Oil analysis
For those who are interested.....(don't bother posting regarding the contact info) I'm the least bit worried. None of us are that special. As you can see oil will easily live beyond 1 year. Easily....

The fram filters I use are the top o the line if you look closely.
They wouldn't be in business if they were so bad.
You're waiting for your filters to fill up the pores so they filter better, lmao.
Kind of like saying 20w50 is good for your motor, lol.
Did you even read the manual? Or is that not good enough for you either? Smarter than the engineers I see.
You're just into the old wive's tales of 50 years ago.
20w50 is obviously the wrong viscosity but you're too stubborn to accept your mistake.
And sorry you wasted your money on an analysis. You didn't even do it correctly to obtain good results.

Frams history of less than stellar quality speaks for itself. Been building big blocks longer than I can remember as well as air-cooled Type-4 engines they don't have issues with 20W-50. Ever stick an oil pressure gauge on and look? I have.
Oil filter efficiency does increase with use. Fact
One doesn't waste time when doing an analysis. You waste time by guessing. Old wives tale? If that were the case I'd be changing it too early like you and (for no reason). Newer oil will NOT preform better than a current oil that has a high TBN. Saying otherwise is a wives tale.
And by the way....these aren't Toyota engines. LOL!
