He said unless leaded fuel or an octane booster was used, it shows bearing wear. Well, I did use Torco race fuel concentrate twice around sample time. Would that do anything for lead amounts?? Thoughts??
Also take it easy on cold starts. That's a prime time for bearing wear. Take it easy with your right foot until the oil comes up to temperature, as well.
