Oil sampling notes

We used it on our avgas burning aircraft piston engines...

It’s really useful if you are wracking up the miles with frequent oil changes..useful trends and exceptions come up..for a car doing one oil change a year not sure if it gives much value..if you can afford it then it has some emotional value..

In aircraft a sudden failure can ruin your day...less so in a car..and unlikely in most E85 6 cylinder engines....all IMHO..
 
I agree fully but there has been people talking about oil sampling and thought the note help explain the findings a bit.

Unless you are trending the samples it is just a snapshot in time and low value you need a trend and a normal use standard etc.

Used to do it on GT13E gas turbines oil tank held over 35 ton of oil so well worth it.
