npnye,

And why wouldn't this ash, that is suspended in the oil as U say, not mix homogeniously with the other oil in the crankcase as the oil is sloshing around in the crankcase as the car is going over bumps, skidding around corners, rapid decelerations and jack rabbit starts and all the time being pumped throughout the engine?

Some ash may settle when the engine is stopped and allowed to cool but it is soon mixed with the oil as the oil heats and the car is driven.
