What would you be using as your benchmark for changing the oil?
I haven't thought it out that far yet. I'll come up with some standard. I just feel hours are a more logical gauge as vehicles sit and idle especially in hot weather a lot more than we realize.
I'm also seeing more and more research showing oil is happier with filter changes more often than a complete change. Just my observations......
Leon; MARKDTN..........Thanks for the help
