I have. I send them to Blackstone. I have a 97 F-250 with a powerstroke and have sent samples in several times,what would you like to know? Jeff

What kind of results did you get back ? Was the oil useless at 7500 miles or does it have a lot longer life than we are lead to believe ? How much worse than a syn is it really ?

Thanks Ron
