easy to test for take a sample out of the engine and pop it in the fridge watch out for SWMBO and you can test for jello if that works fine then pop it in the freezer for a while might be a good idea to do a back to back test with two samples together new oil and out of the engine oil at the same time so you have an instant comparison
