Why fool around with a synthetic 5W-20?

Voa's are limited. Many "weak" looking oils shine. I bet Syntec may be one.

I would not mix anything with it.

Look at the voa's for Conoco Hydroclear (Motorcraft) 5W-20.

Nothing much shows, but performance is excellent.

Looking at "traditional" additives don't mean spit now. The good stuff doesn't show.

How does that screw you?? I'm sure you are a skeptic, but these will go forever on the thin Motorcraft juice.

Our Navigator has 125K and runs like new on it. No consumption.
 
I read the good UOA's about 5w-20 oil in the Ford ohc motors but how well do you think it works in the 3.8 pushrod Ford v6 or other pushrod motors.
 
I like esters, but I really think you ought to leave the original chemistry alone. Maybe one of our chemists will be able to give you a more technical response.
 
My recommendation is to just put the 5W-20 in it, per Mfr's specification, and then simply enjoy driving your nice truck!
 
Maybe a teaspoon of vanilla and a pinch of cinnamon.

Seriously, though - does it need anything added to it? I'd dump in the Syntec 5w-20 and enjoy.
