Another Oil Change

Two more oil changes:

That makes a change at 200, 600, 1,400, and 2,400 miles.

I switched to synthetic oil at 1,400 miles.

This one took about 1 hour 20 minutes. About half of that was "drain time".

There was still a bit of sludge and sparkly bits:

But the filter had almost none:

I saved a sample to send in for analysis:

From here on out, I'm going with 2,000 mile oil changes, unless I get a surprise from the oil analysis report. Then I may change every 1,000.
