It's about time to change the oil in our 2000 Taurus 3.0 OHV with 180k on the clock. It burned about 1 quart in the last 6k miles using Mobil 1 5W30.
I'm trying use up the older oil in my stash and the VWB has been sitting there for about 3 years. It's a gallon jug so I'll have to add a quart, but I'm thinking of using 3 quarts of the 10W40 and 2 of a 5W20 or 5W30 to thin it a bit. I can use the remaining quart of the 10W40 to top off the other cars.
My stash includes QSGB and Mobil Super 5W30, as well as Mobil Super Synthetic and Havoline Synthetic 5W20.
Thoughts?
