Oil report results

That report looks like the standard analysis.
I wouldn't trust Blackstones fuel dilution numbers. They use a method that is basically a guess. Use polaris labs if you want that number to be more accurate.

Standard... $35 bucks... As they already had my money about 3 weeks before the results... They have no reason to lie...
Did someone rip you and No15... off in the past and make you think all Labs are Full of Shit?
Guys... It's just data... No one is trying to prove a point!
Take your Tin cap off!
Don't know where this aggressiveness is coming g from. Blackstone is fine and I never said otherwise. All I said is if fuel dilution is not measured accurately there. They do not have the very expensive test machine to do it.
You mentioned fuel dilution as a concern and I suggested a lab with the correct equipment.

Sorry, Not being aggressive... But they have the machines and correct equipment. Unless you work there and would like to explain how bad and or old their equipment is...? What data do you have that suggest they don't have the correct equipment... ?
So.... Is it the same data that is telling you use polaris labs... requesting you to wear a tin hat to prevent your goverment from reading your thoughts? Facts.... not Feelings!!! I would be interested in your facts... please share...

ok you like to infer a lot of things based on little info but 
I never said their equipment was old, you seem to have comprehension issues. I said they did not have the correct equipment for accurate results with fuel dilution. It requires a gas chromatography machine. BS guesses at the dilution based on flash point and viscosity which can give inaccurate results. It actually is an atsm test but once you factor variability it's clear that it is not reliable.
You believe what you want, I was originally trying to give information about FD results. You seemed to think I was attacking blackstone and felt the need to defend them. For what reason I don't know, but for the record they do good work and I have used them myself.
Anyway, I've said all I'm gonna say about this and fashion my tinfoil hat into earmuffs.
First oil change at 2,500 miles. Not sure I love how dark the used oil sample is…what do you all think of the color? Engine Oil Discoloration Guide - What Different Oil Colors Represent | Toyota Parts Center

Good news, report came back excellent from Blackstone! No issues what so ever. They even commented on the color and told me that is 100% normal for this type of oil and a new motor.
But, remember, you took an Uber to work this morning....
???
This oil had about 3K miles on it, odometer reading was 4930, got my analysis back yesterday. First oil change USPS lost in the mail.
Oxidation being at 88.6 is in the green due to the oil being Ester base.
High Silicon is usually from new engine break in.
Further oil changes will be done at 3K miles, some will say that’s going over board, u do u, and I’ll do me.

Lake does good work, and has great content on YouTube!
Yes he does, I follow him and car care nut
Got the same kit. Will get my 500 mi break in oil change in a few weeks. Gonna post result here once I get them
Bro, if your worried about your personal information to a point that you redacted it............. get a better marker, as currently what you posted allows you to read everything you blacked out.
Based on all the issues going on in engine world that seem to have put 0W-20 at the epicenter from GM, to Toyota Tundra, etc, anyone here thinking about 0w-30 moving forward? I have seen VERY few You tubers OIL guy, Geek etc), testing results etc, that seem to think 0W-20 is a better choice in the long run. Maybe if you live in Alaska.....wondering what LC thinks on this topic. 2.4l turbos are hard workers in these big vehicles....even with hybrid support.
