I know my post is long, but the sample is in the mail. One of my questions was whether a Blackstone UOA will provide any meaningful insight towards larger particles being a problem. I have heard that UOAs with failing internals don't necessarily point out the problem.

They will tell you if the metals and materials in the oil are within limits.
