Re: How many WVO miles... post em up!

tdunklee type- You are right, once the engine is up to temp(at least PSD's) it is nearly impossible to go wrong. However, if running cold oil, ie when the motor is cold, the soot and deposits build up quick in the motor and on the ring lands which lead to seriously increased engine wear. I am terrible for keeping notes, but the one thing I have done everytime without fail is the blackstone oil reports. And that confirmed that by running unheated oil I was quickly headed toward an early demise of my motor. So I changed my ways in a real hurry(FN74 system) did a Seafoam flush(thanks Freds!!

By thge way, once again I have done a revision, and made a HUGE improvemment in simplicity and installation ease. Hopefully I will have some updates and pics on my site soon.
