After a few hundreds of miles, I am please to say that everything that was causing concerns have gone away. There is no longer a burning smell, nor weird engine sounds.
This is an update to my first time trying Mobil Super Synth 5W20 in my Mustang GT with a 4.6l V8. I purchased the oil mainly because of the rebate (which I finally received), and was curious about how it would perform compared to Motorcraft 5W20.
I am now very pleased when I start the engine. It seems to start very quickly, and hot restarts are definitely faster than before. It would have to crank a little longer on hot restarts with the Motorcraft oil. Never understood why it would, but since using Mobil Super Synth, I’ve never experienced it.
I would also like to thank all who have replied to my first post. I am learning more each day about things that mechanics and engineers have known for years. Got to start somewhere. Thank you BITOG!
