I cut my centrifuge bowl open when I did a 7000 mile oil change. The inside of the bowl was completely clean. I did not trap anything. I spoke with the TF Hudgins tech again, his answer to me was that the ISX is such a clean running engine, you may not see any deposits inside the bowl. Are you Frigging kidding me!! TF Hudgins sucks as far as customer service goes. Would I ever recommend any of their products, Hell No.
Good luck with yours, but I wouldn't hold my breath! Cut it open, and see for yourself.

LMAO!!!! 2 miles down the road a mandated ISX looks like COAL, and is two or three viscosity levels higher than what was put in due to the soot! I know, I own one. Kill the mandate, and change the oil every 12,000 to 16,000 miles... I'm at 11,000 miles right now, and just starting to change color... Still golden brown and translucent on the stick, except for that little bit at the end. Roughly 1/8 of an inch of ugly. Just saying. And I fixed it in my driveway... ;-)

Oh, with a bit of phone support. I will not mention names. Saved my bacon, and my ASS.
