No water at all in your oil. Moisture in the oil can cause it to go acidic breaking down the viscosity quickly. This is why I change the oil in my supra once every six months regardless of the mileage. Well, I only put about 2k miles a year on it, so I certainly don't wan't to wait a year and a half!
Thanks for the UOA!
Oh, and when you say "fuel control" do you mean the ability to change the AFR? Why would that be necessary?

Terry Dyson didn't recommend going to synthetics yet. He recommended going to 3000 and sampling again to see how wear metals are trending. Terry has done me right on the Z06, more than worth the money if you want some excellent consulting advice on UOA's.
