[The Beav]

Where do yall get your oil analyzed?  Is it an on-line type deal or are there local analysts where you're at?

If you do the extended drains and want to know your TBN then it cost an extra $9 making it $27. Why they do that I don't know but that is one of the main reasons for doing the analysis. The TBN (total base number) is what you need to know  to tell how well your oil is holding up and how good the additive package is in it.

 

Amsoil also has analysis service for $18.95 that includes the TBN reading as well.

 

If you search in Google you can find a few more but they are high on their price. I go with Blackstone.
