When it comes to oil analysis and lubrication, it goes without saying that execution beats brilliance. And, this execution does not mean a single high-impact feat. Instead, it is a continuous value-building activity, beginning with perhaps a marked change in maintenance philosophy. Many refer to this as a nurturing process, i.e., nurturing your oil and hence, nurturing your machine’s lubricated surfaces. Does it take a new strategy to succeed at this? Not in all cases, but tips, tactics, and strategies definitely help. After all, why not do things the easy way and borrow the learning curve from those who have been there and done that.
