Oil pH? Well, the easiest way to check it is just to measure it. You can buy pH strips in the pool department at Walmart. Don't use titration style pH kits as the reagents will not work with oil.
However, I need to check to see what are the acceptable pH limts. I believe that oil pH is supposed to stay basic or above 7.0. As the oil is used the buffers will break-down and the pH will drop.
The pH of your oil will change based on the type that you use (organic vs. synthetic) and the type of load that the car is under. They have used this pH relationship to show that organic oil looses it's properties around 6-8k miles and with a good synthetic about twice as high.
