Lab Recommendation for UOA

If you take a look at High Potassium - Bob Is The Oil Guy you will see that my last UOA was a little off.

The lab I sent it to and paid the money to couldn't really explain it. Terry Dyson of Dyson labs spent a lot of time going back and forth with me today and helped me make sense of everything, and he didn't get a dime for me.

Dyson labs may charge more, but they are who I will use from here on out. Great customer service, even though I was someone elses customer

Thanks Terry

Thanks for the recommendation. I'm also interested in more opinions from Blackstone, Oil Analyzers Inc, Schaeffer's, others?

I currently use Blackstone labs and im pretty happy.

I have used analyzers inc in the past and if your a seasoned veteran of the UOA then their alright. But they offer no General information or translation of the UOA report. just the contaminants and their values.
