i have recently purchased a 2004 crown vic police interceptor with the 4.6l & 145,000 km. I would like to know what you all think would be a good oil to run? I was thinking m1 5w20 or gc 0w30?
one other thing, this may sound crazy but i will ask anyway. i recently did and oil change on the car, the oil was clean but i noticed that there was a honeywell defence oil filter and i could not have that. i changed the oil with gtx 5w20 and an fl820-s, and the outside temp was around -5c. I put in oil that had been sitting in my unheated garage and when i started it after the change i heard some knocking. do you all think i did some damage?
thanks in advance
