Change of motor oil weight

[bbhero]

Who formulates Cam-2 motor oil?

Hey CB Smitty’s Supply makes Cam2 and Super S motor oils.

OP is in FL. His car will LOVE Mobil 1 0-40.

Because I can't find my Cam-2 for sale anywhere~!

Then go to another 5w20. Is there a Walmart near where you live?

Is around $30 for oil going to make you go broke every oci?

 

[Rogueman2016s]

There’s plenty of 5w20 and 30s out there that are priced reasonably and will either compare if not beat your cam2

 

[JohnnyJohnson]

The only place around me to find CAM 2 I know of is NAPA. Never on sale and never has a rebate!

 

[Malo83]

Go with a 5w30 and sleep well tonite.

I dont get why you’d change from 20 weight? It burns no oil and runs good, why change that now?

Because I can't find my Cam-2 Synavex for sale anywhere

You're telling me in 2023 you can't just order this online/ship to your door? I say if you like it stick with it.

All are excellent choices but seems like the QS is the best deal going at the moment. I would really like to try that new Castrol GTX Syn in the silver bottle but not for the price they want for it.

I'm surprised nobody has picked up on the weight yet, honestly unless you weighed it with a scale that measures in grams you probably couldn't even tell the difference between them.

Oh geez....

 

[GSCJR]

Is there any reason why I shouldn't begin to use 0W-40 Mobil-1 in it from now on?

No

Oh geez....

…..The internet: no whopper too big for the gullible too gladly swallow .

 

[Rygrego]

No reason not to use the 0w-40. It will work just as well as any 5w-30 in the same price bracket.


You have the 3.9 liter V-8 ? I ask because I have a similar engine to that in my daily driver ‘02 Jaguar XKR ( Ford owned Jaguar during that era). And I’m using the M-1 0w-40 and have been for the 70,000 miles of my ownership. The car now has 185,000 miles total on it. Zero oil consumption.

Town Cars came with the 4.6 Liter V8

Yeah, I was thinking of the optional engine in the 1999-2006 Lincoln LS. It was the 3.9L V-8 based on the Jaguar AJ-27 engine. (The standard engine in the LS was the V-6)
