My 1995 Ford owners manual recommends 10,000 k oil change intervals, and thats with dino, so you should have no worries at all.

quote:I don't see any reason you can't go 10,000 km on the German Castrol. IMO, you'd be better off using a Motorcraft oil filter vs. the Delco variety. The Motorcraft FL-400S filter which fits your SHO has the bypass valve in the top where it belongs and a silicone anti-drainback valve... [ November 22, 2003, 11:09 PM: Message edited by: jsharp ]
