S&B? AIRAID? GREEN?

Think about adding an upgraded oil pan with a drain plug. I bought the PPE for my 2022 MACH one it’s aluminum and has a magnetic drain plug. I have been doing a draining fill every 5000 miles. But I also do HPDE with mine so I am probably a lot harder on mine than you are. I could probably go a...

Here is the link to my UOA Amalie 5w-50 https://bobistheoilguy.com/forums/threads/my-amalie-5w-50-elixer-1-558-miles-1-day-on-summit-point-daily.400151/#post-7379539

WOW! I had no idea there were so many crappy oils. Although I admit, I’ve never heard of most of those names or brands. I guess to be more correct, any somewhat well known/big brand engine oil is probably great as long as you change it often enough and use a within realm viscosity.

I’ve searched on here to see if somebody’s already posted a question like this, maybe I’m not wording it just right. I seriously wonder if it’s even possible to buy a horrible or bad engine oil today? Do you know of any if so, what brand and model/selection name etc. Conventional? Synthetic? I...

Temperatures never get close to the red. I have not raced on any really hot days yet. I think the highest is mid to high 80f. I don’t like it when my tires start to get slick from the heat and I figure it is hard on me and the engine. FORD told me 5w-50 NOT the 0w-20 or 0w-30 any longer.

There is NO good reason for my engine to run that thin an engine oil. I am not in the artic. I also do not drive like an old lady. I want a strong and thick film barrier to protect my engine. If I was all about fuel economy and did not care about wearing out my engine then ok, 0w-30 would be...

Engine and 10r80 are stock. I thought about for induction, but a lot of people claim that then it would suck when Road coursing because it would get too hot too fast.

I’m looking for oil for my 2022 MACH 1 Mustang. I drive hard on and off road courses. It’s the GEN three coyote engine. I get the impression Shaeffer is good oil. Am I over thinking this? Is ALL SYNTHETIC GREAT no matter the brand? Ford and the information I’ve read so far leads me to 5w-50...

No they are not. But the other FORD dealers have been terrible also in Fairfax, Manassas and Chantilly Va.

I really wanna blast this dealer for their lack of courtesy and professionalism. I’m trying to be mature and open-minded and learn of some kind of logical reasoning for their actions and lack there of.

Explain the reasoning of dealers asking us to make appointments 0700. Then we arrive and then say they won’t look at your vehicle for 4 days+ This has happened a number of times. I make an appointment and tell them I will wait for my vehicle or that I will drop it off. So in the instances of...

I’ve already abraded my headlights three or four times to clean them up and of course they keep fogging back up so at this point I think it’s best to just replace the headlight assemblies. I like to switch to LED, but it looks like it’s best if I just stick with HID which it originally came...
