I sent in an oil sample to a local lab in Phoenix. (Lab One, Inc)
They sent me the results yesterday with Iron (FE) and Tin (SE) being slightly elevated. 49 for Iron and 11 for Tin. What is a normal range for wear? This sample was taken after a 5800 mile drive. I bought the coach with 125,000 miles and it sat for three years with little use since previous owner had changed the oil with the proper straight weight Chevron 40 as noted in the receipts I found.
