Alright guys just thinking about changing to a different motor oil possibly better. Right now i'm using Mobil 1 full synthetic. Curious what you guys use, preferences, recomendations?

 

whats wrong with mobil 1? you must be bored cuz this question is retarded. valvoline synthetic is next in line to mobil. royal purple is a few bucks more per quart.....................

 

all you need is mobil 1 its one of the best.

 

Personally I just made the switch from Mobil 1 to Fords Synthetic blend. As far as I know, mobil had switched from a pure synthetic to a synthetic blend about a year ago, so I dont see the point in paying 4 times the cost of a ford quart for the mobil. Ive noticed no difference, but there again, I dont pull the engine apart and check the bearings and all that. BTW, Mobil is like 4.15 a quart, Ford oil is about 1.18 a quart. Just food for thought. Oh, and half of the hardcore racers at modulardepot use the ford stuff and swear by it. Thats good enough for me.

 

Amsoil is the top rated fully synthetic oil you can buy. if you want the best, thats what youll go with. its about 25 bucks for 5 quarts

 

Yeah I ws thinking about going to Amsoil. Because I dont want to go to royal purple because it's over kill and my Mobile 1 full synthetic doesnt last as long as it should. $25 for 5 quarts is a steal for full synthetic. What weight do you ise or do they have a 5w-20 in that product line?

 

mobile one doesnt last long enough wow...........

its good for like 15k miles dude. i dont change mine untill 5k and thats still early my dad goes to 7kish.

 

I guess I am about 6k miles since my last oil change........I dunno i'll figure it out later.

 

yea but your oil filter cant handle going that long

 

Amsoil has 7k filters but where I bought mine from, they didnt have my filter so I just bought the fram 7.5k filter.

Ill end up changing everything at 5k anyways. Oil is too cheap in price to cheap out on for future problems.

 

Mobil 1 is still fully synthetic. I believe part of their base stock is from petroleum but that itself has been modified into a synthetic. Not that there is anything wrong with Fords brand but, a synthetic blend only has between 10 and 20% synthetic in it. Its more of a marketing gimmic to make you think its superior over regular petroleum based oil.

 

Mobil 1 Fully Synthetic 5w-30, w/ Motorcraft filter. I change every 3k miles. Might be overkill but nothing is too good for my Stang, keep her fresh

 

I use Royal Purple 5W-20. I like it alot... well besides the price being so much. My uncle owns a race shop so i get it at about the price of MObil 1 would cost me. I highly recommend it to anyone who is willing to pay the high prices.
