Spectrometer Motor Check 900

posted by  someone claiming to be Bill D. on  Fri Jun 7 15:26 CST 2002 [RELATED]

Just had my 94, 965 (79K miles) engine oil and tranny fluid analysed by a "Global Technovations" Spectrometer/Computer. I have been using Mobil 1 for 2 yrs. Interesting results; all my engine wear metal numeric values are very LOW, highest one at 37 ppm (iron); the tranny wear values also LOW, highest one at 19 ppm (iron). The computer analyses: alum.,chromium, copper, iron, lead, tin, silicon, potassium, sodium, water, oxidation, viscosity, glycol, fuel and nitration. The great news is that I have 0 ppm, water or gylcol. The technician said this is the lowest scoring he has ever seen, on ANY vehicle. I have e mailed the parent company to gather more information. Has anyone else experienced using a Spectrometer for oil analyses. ??
