A good buddy of mine told me about these guys. You can send out for a free oil testing kit and pay etc. about of dollars to have a pretty conclusive test done on your oils. For guys that want to know what oil is "the best" or good oil's to use I think this testing is very beneficial. I am going to try it out with the crankcase oil from my Tri-Z. The kits are free. I believe the basic testing is around $22 dollars.

I use Blackstone to test oil for my vehicles, they are very good. Include your email address on your form and they'll email your results much quicker than it outta take, very fast. Never done any lube from an atv myself though. The trans fluid will be interesting, I'd like to see the results, I'll bet insolubales are sky-high. Chris

Great to hear man. My good buddy that told me about these guys was having some warranty transmission issues with his new BMW K1200R motorcycle. He sent them some tranny fluid and they opened his eyes up to the issues BMW was having with there transmissions.

Awesome people. I send out my trucks oil to see how its wearing and to see how much fuel is in the oil. So far so good ;)
