Why not run oil analysis to see how your selection of oil is holding up? It will tell you a hell ofa lot more than some of the speculation around here does.[:-]

I don't know much about Mustangs, yet, cuz I've had mine for a month now (95 GT). But I do know Fords. I used the walmart special fram and super tech oil every 4000 in my last car (93 Escort) and with 200K it still runs quiet. Only got rid of it bucause I as soon as I sat in and fired up that Mustang, I had to have it[8D] Seems like a 5.0 would be harder on oil and need something stronger so I'm going to use K&N with Mobil 1.

I never had a problem using Amsoil products... in fact, I swear by them!

i work at a ford dealership in the quick lane and we put 4.75 quarts in for v6's and 5.5 or 6 depends on if you hae a 5.0 or a 4.6

ive always bought fram oil filters.
but now i wont. i gues i'll have to dish out the extra money for the mobil 1 brand.
