I just received the results from my second oil analysis since the overhaul. Good news is that all the wesr metals and silicon have dropped a bunch, bad news is that the fuel was 3.5%....

Last sample the fuel measurement was Trace.

Samples taken at 10 hours and 36 hours. 20W-50 type M.

Viscosity slightly low on both samples at 76 and 79. But I'm concerned about the fuel.

Possible causes? Take any action, or see what the results are in another 25 hours?
