This is a picture from a 284k mile 1999 mustang GT 4.6l. Engine overheated and blew a head gasket. also had one broken chain tensioner. Its one of two identical black on black 5 speed coupes i picked up cheap. this one will be a toy when i replace the engine. the other will be to sell as it only has 130k miles on it.
This GT with 284k miles was a 1 owner car. the lady said she used castrol edge 5w30 every 5-6k miles since new. she said it was mostly highway driven. She showed me a pile of old castol edge jugs in her shed..she had a ton of them full of old oil, at least 25-30 old jugs. i figured id share a picture under the valve cover for you guys. its really clean, very light varnish, some of the brown is milkshake from the head gaskets getting blown.
i apologize i dont know how to embed the photo.
