I have about 4 hrs over 3 months time running on the compressor. I feel as though the seco shouldn't be this dirty.
Well said, after 1-hour run-time my break-in oil was also gunked up, since then, running clear. Future oil changes would offer best evidence of any problems. WMYa, but the first short run of oil kinda flushes out any factory dirty crap or sluges, metal partials . + Break in
So you kinda expect it to turn quick ( at least i would . You just need to monitor the next change or 2 for improvment or worsing. ( Opinion)
The way them things are built and operate/ pressure id honestly not expect to go far or too much from any oil ( more opinion)
