    AMS oil signature fails my most basic test

    Gauging the quality and amount of life left in oil on a diesel visually is about as accurate as gauging cetane at the pump by tossing the first 12 ounces on the ground then rubbing it between your fingers. There is no way these trucks ruin the oil in 20 miles because that is how long it takes my...
