How can you do a USED oil sample at 500 miles? That would basically be a VIRGIN oil sample.

Do one after a 4000 mile change... a 6000 mile change... a 8000 miles change (probably the longest I'd go for peach of mind, personally)...

I’m doing a OFHG job and am seeing some metallic particles ATM...should I continue driving still?

metallic particles you can see with the eye aren't something a spectrum analysis would show on an UOA.

post up pics of what you're seeing if you want people's opinions.
