And you really shouldn't try to judge an oil on a single uoa or even on several consecutive uoa's.

My understanding is it is still performing within 30 weight standards.

I'm not making an overall judgement on the oil and I've been here long enough to know most are freaked out over this oil and recommend Rotella T6 (and I frequent this section and know your feelings on the subject :-)). But in my conversations with Blackstone my understanding is that it is still performing within 30 weight specs. I'm not an expert and don't profess to be however.
