Where can I get an Oil Analysis kit?

While I'm thinking of it does anyone know where I can get an UOA kit in the Mason City area for Blackstone Labs? I sent for one from Blackstone but they say it takes 2-3 weeks to get here I thought it would be a good idea to have one done being it has used some oil in the last 2500 miles and wonder if maybe the rings are not seated or maybe my truck doesn't like the 5w40 Rotella oil! Also I'm going to switch to Amsoil this oil change.

You can always store the oil in a clean container while you wait for a kit. I have done this. Blackstone also confirms it on their website. Just make sure it is clean.

You should be able to get one from any Cummins/Cat/Detroit engine dealer/parts supply house, or heavy truck dealer.

I can set you up with oil analysis kits from AMSOIL if that helps. They go to Oil Analyzers Inc.
