Thanks to all who replied, I do think this is low but maybe it's because of
the small amount of data (only 3 tanks) and the engine still being new.
Once it breaks in and I have more data to work with it may go up. Also,
once I switch to synthetic lubricants I will update you guys on the status.

Thanks again,
Mike
