15,000 miles on this oil change
In: Supertech 5w30 with Supertech oil filter
Now there's someone who doesn't live in fear of timing chain / tensioner issues on the Ford Mod. Definitely got your use out of that $2.60 a qt oil.
Yeah honestly we are thinking of retiring this Crown Vic here soon, as the rust is very bad underneath the car. Otherwise the engine is still running as good as it came from the police auction. We even used the Motorcraft Fl-820S oil filter for most of the car's oil changes. Funny considering how people hate that oil filter on these forums.
The FL-820S is actually thought quite highly of on here, in my opinion. It's the rest of the Motorcraft line that has shown to be susceptible to issues.
