still clean MTC 5w20@6800miles

[EricF]

It's been a few months, my 2012 Fusion 2.5L is up to 6800 miles on MTC 5w20.
The dipstick is still at full mark, and oil is just a sneeze darker than clean.
I think I'm gonna wait til 7500 before I change it out.
I got my blackstone oil kit the other day, so hopefully I don't mess up collecting a sample!

I look forward to your report !

Probably means Motorcraft.

Michelin Tires Central ?

Milwaukee Trade Center ?

His sig indicates Motorcraft.

Sorry, the line codes for Motorcraft is MTC, it's a habit for me to use 3 character codes for parts.
on BITOG, I know MC is for Motorcraft.
Sorry!

Finally got the oil change done on my Fusion... attached a link to the picture of the oil filter. Very very clean at 7702 miles.

I sucked out 2 1/2 quarts of ATF from the tranny pan through the fluid evacuator. It's pretty dark, obviously wasn't changed when it was supposed to. So 2 1/2 quarts of Mercon LV and also added a bottle of LG Platnum.

I took samples of both, so I'll get those sent to blackstone labs this week & see what happens!
