Last month I had the same lab that you used test the oil (RedLine synthetic 10W30)from our 1994 9000 Aero (79,200 miles on the engine); our oil had been used for 6,450 miles. The lead reading on our Aero was 14 (versus your reading of 37); our fuel % reading was 0.3% versus 0.8% for your engine, so it does appear that you are doing a lot of idling or city driving. Our car's engine was noted for somewhat higher than average aluminum at 10 (versus your reading of 6; our silicon read 16versus you 11 reading, indicating that I need to check the intake system for any leaks.
