i kno theres a thread on this....cant find it

i have 30,000 miles and have been usin the ford motor oil bs lol

wat would u guys reccomend? ive been wonderin bout goin 2 synthetic i hear its the way 2 go

 

I use Royal Purple, I've never had any trouble.

 

I use 5W30 royal purple or mobile 1 synthetic nothing else

 

What about the new full synthetic Q by quaker state. does anyone know if this is good?

 

5W30 mobil 1 full synthetic

 

Mobil 1 fully synthetic FTW!

 

Amsoil is far superior than any other synthetic on the market but youll hear everyone else say mobil 1, which is actually a really crappy synthetic. The thing with amsoil is you'll be paying for it. I run full amsoil lubricants in mine and change my oil every 7000 miles.

 

what makes mobil 1 crappy?

 

I use motorcraft 5w-20 synthetic blend and it works fine! I have 93,4xx miles on my pony and i aint got no complaints...

 

use whatever viscosity fits the weather in your area. Use whatever brand gives you a hardon. Synthetic is marginally better than conventional. Royal purple is top shelf along with RedLine and Mobil1 and Syntec.

 

Yeah? alot of mustang and camaro people that i know will do only mobile 1 synthetic and nothing else. and some of those people are mechanics or drag racing freaks.
amsoil is really good, but it is pricey and i think royal purple is just as good, right behind that is mobile 1.

 

quaker state is crap, there is notihng wrong with mobil 1.

 

Mobil 1 fully synthetic with a Fram X2 filter.

 

+1
I use mobil 1 also and have been since the car turned 5k and never had any problems with it!

 

how do you guys dispose of your old oil?

 

Alot of places like autozone will take your old oil from you. Our base has a autoskills shop and we can drop it off there.

 

yeah i think the airforce academy has something like that too..I'll have to check into it

 

On the rocks with a twist of lemon and 2 olives.

Or, most quick lubes and the Kragen/Checker/Schucks chain will take your oil for free. In california they're supposed to pay you 4 cents for each quart but almost never do.
