I have a 16 year old bike (TVS Victor GL) in which I did an oil change from mineral oil to semi-synthetic oil with surfactants (Shell Advance AX7 550031394 10W-40 API SM Synthetic Technology Motorbike Engine Oil). The problem with this, I assume, is that it cleaned away all the necessary carbon from the engine. Two days after changing the engine oil, I decided to change the clutch and pressure plates. I know this is a very stupid decision and I must have done this before changing the oil. When I drained the oil to change the clutch plates, it came out to be dark and gritty.
And now for the question. Can I use the same oil because it is just two days old, or should I go for new engine oil?
