Thanks for the vid! Are you going to use it more often? Doesnt seem to me it is very consequent with the results.

At this point it will definitely not be a substitude for the regular 5000miles changes!

I primarily just bought it to test it out and see if it was complete bogus - so far mostly bogus I guess However, if the report from Blackstone come back showing my oil has plenty of miles left in it - then it might be on to something anyway and I might consider longer change intervals using the tester as a guideline.

I'll do another test tonight and post the result
