I have used both and so far I still like Redline SI-1 and that is due to seeing it clean out a 900RR, riding lawnmower, and even an Olds. The 5 gas on the Olds was amazing. Even after a fuel injection service the Olds was no cleaner on a 5 gas (was a first for the instructor at least after my...

Almost all longlife coolants are low/no silicates. While Ford recommends their long life with silicates.

The OEM filters are Grey and made by Champion Labs while the Motorcraft replacement filters are Purolator. The only one that is odd in the Motorcrat line for canister filters is the 2005 for the Zetec 4 Cylinders to help with drainback. More expensive. The 400S and 820S are silicone drainback...

The Motorcraft filter and oil will keep that engine tip top for a long time. FL-910 and 5W-20 Yup filter is up front and vertical and the drain plug is just off the back of the pan. Just getting under the car is the fun part. About 4.7 quarts of oil should see the top mark. 5K is perfect for...

None of my local Wally Marts have 0W-40 M1

Get some GC or maybe something like MaxLife which is at the higher end of the 30 weight realm and see if it is a happy medium.

Originally Posted By: Bookmaker With a filter change, the '05-'08 Mustang GT takes about 6.5 quarts to reach the full mark on the dipstick. This is true on mine and it is repeated by many owners on various Mustang forums. You don't want to fill it above the top hole on the dipstick though...

Guess you mean SN/GF-5 The GL-5 for gear boxes has been out for YEARS!!!!

They used to sell SI-2 I think it was which was the non-concentrated every tank use version of the same stuff which carried the BMW lifetime intake cleanliness additive part number. Use the SI-1 using the the marks on the side for the amount of gas added and sleep tight knowing you will have one...

Probably do just fine.

We used it all the time at ford dealership. Seemed to do no wrong. Never seen oil issues. Just fuel issues.

As far as the leak goes they are known for having the degas bottle leak but not the correct side. Check around the seems of the radiator end tanks for seepage. Might get the odor from this if hot. Check the thermostat area real good too. Originally Posted By: bfax011 Originally Posted By...

You can get have it died and checked for leaks with Blacklight and yellow glasses. The Zerex is good.

For those who liked SLOB, you'd think they'd love this stuff. Does it hurt, not sure... I did a run in Chicago Burb during winter with Havoline 10W-30 and BG-MOA and have a UOA.... http://www.bobistheoilguy.com/forums/ubb...true#Post852090

Naw the Iron is from the M1.... Why does it always go high when used????

Originally Posted By: buster Has anyone ever gone to synthetic, then conventional, then ester based, than pao, then suv oil, then conventional and finally a blend? OK I missed the SUV oil but did most of that in my last car and threw in RotellaT 14-40 once to make up for it.... It gobbled it...

Most of the Firestones around here use Kendall. My dealership uses Conoco (get it cheaper than Kendall but use some Kendall fluids too) My Old dealership uses Motorcraft 76 Conoco Phillips 66 Kendall Motocraft All about the same...... Heck ConocoPhillips helped develop 5W-20 for FORD.

Yes, its effective area may well be shorter, but if you foul off a ball with that VENEER instead of striking out I'll take it. Yes, the sweet spot may move a bit but it is still useful wood out their that can punch a ball through the infield or just foul it off. Either way, I'll take it.
