When I change oil, AmsOil, it costs me ~$80 Plus filter ~$15... When I do a sample at 3,000 mi it costs me ~$30... I have not set out to save money by analysis instead of oil changes... but here's the math: ~$65 saving at 3,000 miles; ~$130 saving at 6,000 mi; ~$195 savings at 9,000 mi. You get the idea... My idea is simply does the oil remain serviceable when sampled, if it does why change it. For those who may wonder... I spent a career in nuclear subs, been a chief engineer on one, been the CO of a major sub repair facility... The Navy saying is "you can take the boy out of the engineroom, but you can't take the engineroom out of the boy." So if you want to come at me over this, guilty as charged...
