M.O.C. #7560
I'd like to get my Duramax oil analyzed also just to see if it really needs the changing when the computer on the dash says it does! Or if the service manager is just pulling my leg on the mileage deal. I change mine about every 7-8000 miles anyway but I'm not towing the Monte all the time either!

Phil-- I didn't do much of the piston powered analyzations in the S.O.A.P. lab when I worked it as a jetmech at Offutt but ran samples for all of the "Hog Noses", tankers, and "Looking Glass" birds for the 55th Air Wing there while stationed there! Great duty! Had a trailer on the flight line and SOAP lab was set up in the livingroom! Grounded "Glass" on numerous occasions due to high iron or copper content in the samples! Really ticked off a few pilots but always got an engined changed when the General on the flight found out the consequences possible!
