Len- they tell you what kind of deposits show up? How much does it cost and can you send in brand new oil to get checked out

$25 - they send you the kit with mailer for free - you don't get charged until you send in the oil. They personalize the reports and tell you if you're changing too frequently. Sample reports are here. http://www.blackstone-labs.com/gas-engine.php

Amsoil synthetic 0W-20 & their EAO11 filter. I change it annually in the spring, usually put ~4000 miles on it a year.

I also run it in my turbo subaru
