Oil analysis samples have been sent to labs from the previous and current owners.  Current samples are showing excellent results with below average metal wear.  Reports from August 2019 through December 2022 will show increasing high metals.  The metal culprit was Cylinder 3 wearing down due to age, as logbook records indicate it was installed way back in 1983.  In March 2023, Cylinder 3 was replaced and oil analysis show normal values moving forward.  In addition to oil analysis, the oil filter has always been cut and inspected during oil changes for metal particles, with none having been found.
