Hello
I have a 2004 Ford ranger 4x4 4.0L. I was using M1 EP 5w-30 and M1 filters..truck now has 28,650 miles. I can not find the M1 EP around here now..seems like a shortage.
I have been reading the forums here for a year now (which is a great place) and stumbled on the GC thing here. So I go to autozone and look and found some..it was the gold so i got it anyways..
I also got a Pure1 filter..My question is ..Will this be a good oil for my truck..I know the 4.0L likes a slightly thicker oil than other Ford trucks as they use 5-20..
and what should my change intervals be with this oil..would 7500 be ok.
My driving is 75% highway..25% backroads..no real city driving...
Thanks for any info you can provide...
