you dont use seafoam to change the color of your oil..... you use it 100-200 miles before you change out your oil. it's to help remove buildup and clogs that are forming that haven't come an issue. No one uses it cause they want to change the color of the oil theyre getting ready to change. You could seafoam it AFTER an oil change. Yeah. Control test with fresh oil and no seafoam with 100-200 miles. drop and test the oil. Then but new oil in it again... and put seafoam in it. Now go run 100-200 miles, drop and test the oil. but you got to do this on a vehicle that hasn't been seafoamed.
@freedomworxКүн бұрын
I think you misunderstood the video. Can we agree that deposits are generally darker than engine oil? If those deposits were dissolved and carried away with the old oil, would it not make the oil darker? The darkened oil is an indication of the desired result, it is not the desired result itself.

did you take into account that the engine still produces more filterable particles than that bypass filter can absorbe with only that 6.3% passes through at any given point in time.
@freedomworxКүн бұрын
6.3% is a made up number. The product literature says it’s around 10%. And no. The engine won’t produce more contaminants than can be filtered at any given time. It might take several dozen or hundred miles to initially filter all of the oil in the sump to that 2 micron level, but it will reach and maintain an equilibrium cleanliness level.

is it true that engine oils has expiry of 1 year? longer than 1 year it will degrade its viscosity and protection properties? so you really have to change yearly even you don't reach the recommended mileage?
@freedomworx2 күн бұрын
No. Oil does have a shelf life, but it is generally many years. After that, the additives can fall out of suspension, and oxidation can take its toll on the oil. But as far as changing it every year regardless of mileage, that’s just a marketing ploy to help oil company sell more oil. As long as the oil is getting up to operating temp and remaining there long enough to evaporate condensation or fuel on the oil periodically, it’ll last a very long time. Years.

Absurd based on what? Your opinion? I’ll stick with the scientific facts gleaned from my used oil analysis. 298k on a Duramax is nothing special.

That’s one way to look at it. Horsepower equals heat. To make the same amount of heat (watts) with fewer RPM, you have to make more heat per engine cycle. Meaning more cylinder and egt’s.

@freedomworx I asked because I have an ecodiesel. Ya, I know, I bought it in 2016 before the extent of the bad was known. I suspect that many of the issues with them has to do with how much soot ecodiesels (specifically) make and gets fed back into the engine. This large accumulation of soot in the oil, I suspect, degrades the oil's ability to lube bearings and causes premature failure. Obviously, I want to prevent this in my engine. Edit: Comparing the soot levels in your rig (I'm assuming non-EGR and tune for performance/efficiency) with mine would be helpful.

@freedomworx More soot - The 2017 legal battle between Stellantis/Ram and the EPA caused Ram to flash a new EPA compliant program into the ECU that dumped more fuel to reduce NO2, combined with the mandated EGR on 1/2 tons... I've taken some steps to help it burn cleaner and reduce soot recycling, but it's still a concern. One of the measures is to change oil sooner just to remove soot.

I say you'd been better off putting a quart of diesel or kerosene put in the oil or, hell, even a quart of gasoline to flush it. Run it at idle for 30 mins . Then use fresh oil like you did.

Most techs before me used Napa 15/40 with Napa oil filters (made by wix for napa ) , I used Rotella T 15/40 with Wix filters each change had 10.5 hrs of exercise operation , the Rotella looked so much cleaner as in still amber . the Napa oil was dark almost black with the same hrs of operation!

An LPG system would piggy back onto the diesel system and insert a measured dose every revolution into the individual combustion chamber. It resulted in a big jump in torque and HP and oil so clean that it looked brand new at the end of your 5000km cycle that owners were often tempted not to change it at all.
