I ran a liquid cooled diesel that was due an oil change for about an hour and a half then tested it. It showed a 4 out of 10. Couldn't get to it for an oil change for 5 days so I figured that I would test it again since I knew it hadn't been ran in 5 days to see what sitting does to the oil.
It tested as a 1 out of 10.
The individual lubricheck unit it's self is consistent. The prime mover's oil is not as consistent as we would like to think.
