About 2 years ago, I did an oil change on my 2001 Beaver Patriot Thunder with a CAT C12 diesel engine. I made a video showing the oil change and the oil analysis I did on it.
While, I did not drive my RV nearly enough in that time, it is still good practice to service it annually and not wait 2 years like me. I thought now would be a good time to do a follow up video to see if the CAT12 engine is still running good after 24 years and 168k miles with another oil analysis from Empire CAT. Hopefully, this inspires other buyers that may be interested in diesel RVs but are afraid of units with higher miles to take a second look at quality motorhomes.
Thanks for watching!!
