*A method for determining the [[Oil Change Interval]] , as an aspect of [[Preventative Maintenance]] , where the oil is routinely sampled (Potentially as a part of [[Motor Pool Mondays]] etc, as sampling during EVERY DIPSTICK CHECK for [[Pre-Trip Inspections]] is probably excessive) to do a [[Motor Oil Assay]]<br />
**The oil is them changed and/or supplemented based on Additive Package content, Soot Buildup, Pyrolysis of the Oil/Impacts on Lubricity etc<br />
***With enough of a collected Knowledge Base, this could be turned into a Recommendation (as the companies, if recommending the OCI in good faith, not [[Planned Obsolescence]] etc, ALTHOUGH the goal of Data Bases Oil Change Intervals is to “catch” anything a broad generalized recommendation would require.<br />
