Scrolling through BITOG, noticed mention of fuel dilutions that are quite high in these new engines at low/breakin mileage.  Truth or Rumor?

Don't know if anyone has a vehicle with this engine and/or if samples of the oil change have been sent off for analysis.
2007 Ford Edge SEL, Powerstop F/R Brake Kit, TXT LED 6000K Lo & Hi Beams, W16W LED Reverse Bulbs, 3BSpec 2.5w Map Lights, 5W Cree rear dome lights, 5W Cree cargo light, DTBL LED Taillights

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!
