I'm looking for information on Motorcraft oils. The normal everyday Motorcraft oil used by dealerships is a synthetic blend. Ford and Motorcraft sell full synthetic versions of the oil. Is there any real testing data with results of the comparisons of the synthetic blend vs the full synthetic...

I am soon going to take possession of a new Lincoln with a 2.0 l EcoBoost. There is a similar thread about using 0w30 for an EcoBoost engine. It doesn't really answer the question of what choices? Pennzoil, Castrol, Mobil1 ESP, other brands make quality OW-30 oils. Almost all are marketed for...

Okay I travel travel with my job and today I got service out of town at Ford dealership I've never been to. Mad as a hornet! First thing is first. My vehicle specs 5W-20 oil as an alternative I can use 0W-20 oil. I requested to the dealership that I wanted 0W-20 full synthetic. No problem. They...

I have a vehicle with an Ecoboost engine. Closing in on 100k miles. Thinking of adding a fuel injector cleaner or fuel system cleaner. No issues I'm aware of. Simply preventive maintenance.Those engines all use GDI. What what I read the Royal purple fuel treatment products see to have good...

Someone can combine this with another tread. Just weeks ago someone on here had populated a list of common 5W-20 and OW-20 motor oil and their respective viscosities at 100C temperature. What thread was that? I can't find it. I've searched through everything recent. It had a lot to with...

Did Mobil 1 change their formula of their Mobil 1 Truck and SUV oil? Do I have old stock? Or an old formula? Just picked this up at a local O'Reilly's. The jug makes no mention of the extra detergents in the oil. I've read that the T&S oil contains 10% of cleaners and detergents to help...

I'm not sure what section to post this in. I have a 2020 Ford Ecosport with the 1.0L Ecoboost engine. That particular engine uses a variable displacement oil pump. I was just chatting with a person who is a hot rodder and engine builder and I'm just saying about that I wanted to use a different...

Is there a shortage on Castrol Edge extended protection motor oil? Or are they phasing it out? I've used Castrol Edge extended protection in a previous oil change. Yes, the oil in the gold jug. Supposedly castrol's top of the line synthetic oil. A while back I bought it one roll back at my...

I'm working out town for work. I'm a DYI but circumstances is probably going to force me to do my next oil change on the road. I'm in Georgia. Close to me are multiple Castrol oil change centers. Got me looking and I see their filters. Are Castrol filters the same as Fram. it seemed way...

Newbie here. I got a question for oil geeks. I've done some research. Ford's oil specs of WSS-M2C-945A/B1 are for 5W-20 oil. Ford's oil specs of WSS-M2C-947A/B1 are for OW-20 oil. You can Google up the engineering documents for those specs. 2 Separate different sources list the WSS-M2C-947A/B1...
