ok as i thought royal purple is a lil too much $$$ n since im short on money what would be the next best oil ?gtx,valvoline,pennzoil,quaker state, any other ideas ? also how many qts do you guys usually put in when changin oil, 5 qts ???

Dennis · October 8th, 2006, 02:00 PM

personal preference castrol gtx or valvoline never use pennzoil

4point6GT · October 8th, 2006, 02:56 PM

how many QTs tho ?

Fryrice · October 8th, 2006, 11:21 PM

5 quarts.Make sure you check you oil when the car is cold. Be sure to get a high mileage oil to help maintain seals and older parts. I use Valvoline Max Life.Click the link below.

Buy a gallon jug and 1 pint. 4 quarts in a gallon. Do your filter at the same time.

mobile 1 from the local parts store

ChrisJ · October 9th, 2006, 02:01 AM

I like Mobil 1...

Fryrice · October 9th, 2006, 10:45 PM

My dad uses Mobil 1 in his Vette. You really have to select motor oil based on your vehicle type and condition. Especially when your talkin high mileage.

4point6GT · October 10th, 2006, 12:05 AM

well im gettin mobil 1, valvoline or gtx, of course a high mileage one, but ive been usin 10-30, some ppl say 5-30, sum ppl even say 5-20 if i remember right, anyways what do u suggest.

ChrisJ · October 10th, 2006, 01:05 AM

For the 4.6 they recommend 5-20...But I use 10-30 in mine...I just dont like the 5-20...

guess i will stick with 10-30 then, thanks man..

ChrisJ · October 10th, 2006, 01:11 AM

No problem...

Dennis · October 10th, 2006, 11:14 AM

if you want to go by factory specs my owners manual recommends 5-30 and of course motorcraft oil and im sure that has nothing to do with the ford brand behind it im sure lol

Drgnracin72 · October 10th, 2006, 12:24 PM

mobil 1 5w20. that high mileage shit is just a marketing ploy. its bs. as for using 5 -20 the modular motors allready make a lot of oil pressure and there is no need and should not put anything heaveir than a 5w20.

Drgnracin72 · October 10th, 2006, 12:25 PM

and its also 6 qts not 5 qts. did some research on this last night becasue ive always thought it was 5 qts

4point6GT · October 10th, 2006, 09:29 PM

well i changed my oil already so too late for the 5-20, lol. I put in some 10-30 and a new oil filter as well. theres only one problem which got me a lil scared. So i was finished changin oil, then i get near the engine n i smell sumthin funny, n im sure it was just some of the oil burnin that i accidently dropped around while puttin the new one in but who knows, cause i think a seen a lil smoke comin from around where u put in the engine oil. anyways then i check my mufflers n they dripped out something, not alot just a lil but not continuously. then while all this was happenin first thing i had noticed outta my mufflers was that there was smoke comin out, maybe it is cause its a lil cool outside n u know how with a hot car smoke usually comes out, just so u know it was white smoke not as in black burin smoke. well is there anything wrong with this ????? i was gonna go take it for a drive to see how it was after a new oil change but this kinda scared me.

99mustang232 · October 11th, 2006, 05:00 AM

if it was thick white smoke it was not oil, it was water or coolant, when oil burns in the combustion chamber it produces black or blueish smoke. if it is thin smoke would let it get up to temp then see if it is still doing it? if there is a little smoke on startup, then it goes away this can be an indicator of some worn valvetrain parts from a high mileage motor. if it continues to billow smoke out stop it then, because if it is a gasket leak then you will run danger of warping aluminum parts under extreme overheating.

Drgnracin72 · October 11th, 2006, 07:47 AM
