Please read below and look at the attached image (oil analysis findings).
I'm open to any info you willing to share about these findings. Thanks in advance.
This is an excerpt of info I sent to the Lab with the sample:
<<<
1984 Buick Grand National
3.8l SFI Turbocharged (LM9 non-intercooled)
Engine had 73,219 @ time of sample
Oil sample was 10w30 conventional ran for 1,500 miles.
The vehicle sat for an unknown amount of time prior to getting it running (estimate 4 years).
Original oil was drained immediately, 5 quarts of 10w30 was added and ran at idle for a total of 2 hours with 4 oz of Seafoam then drained.
The sample oil was then added with filter and ran for 1,500 miles (with 91 octane non-ethanol fuel).
Shortly after the sample was taken the radiator was changed and found to be at least 50% blocked so engine temps were elevated for 1,500 miles.
