This is run 1,677 miles with Purolator filter.
Boring report but posting for record. Refilled with 4.5 quarts Havoline 5w-20 SM.

You are ready for 6K mile Oil Cange Intervals. Send me your used oil.

I've used this - beefing it up with 1/3rd Delo 400 15W-40 in my past-warranty vehicles.

I am going to change this out when tha car has 5000 miles on it. Than changing to PP 5w-20. W/5000 mile OCI. Yes over kill,still under warranty for a long while.
So the oil will only have 1800 miles or so on it.
I will save it for you.

Is this motor built at Fords Lima Ohio plant?

Yeah, I'd smack myself in the head too if I found out it was built there and had low wear numbers.

What about the viscosity??

I'm jealous. All these nice 5w20 UOA's coming in, and I'm stll waiting for my Subaru results after almost three weeks.
