I appreciate everybody taking the time to give me some advice. I learn so much when I ask a question here from the very knowledgeable forum members. After pondering this for a long time I think I will stick with the MC 5w-20 synthetic blend, at least until it is out of warranty. This seems like...

Tig1, I know what the recommended oil is but I am at work and I cannot remember anything anymore. I am getting old and I own 2 cars and 2 truck and I get them mixed up. I do check before I buy the oil but the Mustang I have let the Ford dealership change and I have not bought any oil for it yet...

I just wanted to get ya'll's thoughts on oil for my 2012 Mustang GT California Special Convertible. It has the 5.0. It is a 6 speed manual. I have been having the oil changed at the local Ford dealership. They are using the Ford Synthetic Blend. I have been changing it when the computer tells me...

Thanks everybody for the response. I forgot to mention my truck has 80K miles on it. I decided to get Penzoil YB 10w-30 with a Wix filter. I really like syn oil and have been using Mobile 1 syn in my wife's 07 Camry since we purchased it. I know you are suppose to be able to switch to syn with...

Work is about 3 to 5 miles. I drive through neighborhoods and then I drive 55 for about 2 miles. Mostly drive it around town and to work except when I pull my boat to the lake, mostly in the spring. I live in Georgia so it is mostly mild weather in the winter. It hardly gets below 20F. I have to...

I am going to buy oil and I was wondering everybody's thoughts for oil for my truck. I have been having it changed at the Dodge dealer and they have been using 10w-30 I believe. What do think of me using 5w-30 for the 360cid engine? I will probably buy Penzoil or Mobile regular oil. It has been...

I run 5w-30 M1 in my wife's Camry XLE with the V6 and six speed auto. I change it at around 8000 miles. So far it has run great and gets really good gas mileage. Good luck.

Your right JLDCOL. Mobile 1 is a full syn. I was thinking of using regular Mobil oil (if they make it) when I put Mobile 1. I use Mobile 1 in my wife's 2007 Camry XLE and it has done great so far.

Thanks everyone, this is a great forum to learn about oil. I guess I am off to the auto parts store to buy oil and a filter. I guess I will decide when I get there. Either Mobile 1, Valvoline, or Pennzoil non-syn oil. I think I will go with a Wix filter. I had read good things about Wix even...

Thanks for all the great info. Does anyone have a link to a page that explains the abbreviations. I have looked and I cannot find the page. Most abbrevaitions I can figure out but some I have trouble with. Thanks, Wes For example I cannot figure out what is PP stands for. Perhaps Pennzoil Premium?

Thanks everyone for the advice. I want to use a non-syn premium oil. What is the facts about the oil they sale that is suppose to be good for vehicles over 75,000 or maybe they called it "high mileage oil"? Is this a good choice for my Dodge Truck with 65,000 or is it just a marketing ploy and...

I have done searches and read for info and I would now like to ask for some help. I have a 2000 Dodge Quad Cab, with a 360 engine. I have been having my oil changed at the Dodge dealership and they use Mopar oil and I don't have any idea who makes it. I want to start changing the oil myself and...

I am wanting to use a FI cleaner and I was wondering if anyone has used SeaFoam? I use it in my two lawnmowers and it seems to make them run better. I am debating about trying it in my trucks. It says on the bottle it is safe for all systems and that fire departments and the military use it...
