Re: Important Information About Mobile 1 Synthetic Motor Oil For Mach 1's
My MACH has over 67K mi. and all I ever used was 5W-30 syn. mainly amsoil since 5k mi. The only sound under the hood is the howling from the filter when the engine is running. I'll stay with it until my MACH 1 say otherwise.

Re: Important Information About Mobile 1 Synthetic Motor Oil For Mach 1's
I have 130,000 miles and at early life ran conventional every 3,000 miles and MUCH later switched to syn..but thru the years has ALWAYS been 5w-20 with no "blown" issues now.

Re: Important Information About Mobile 1 Synthetic Motor Oil For Mach 1's
I ran 5w-30 for the summer last year and have since switched back to 5w-20. I feel like I've done the right thing. Really though, I was only worried about the track visits and going up to redline in the heat of the summer. I've always used full synthetic, so I feel okay about switching back.

Re: Important Information About Mobile 1 Synthetic Motor Oil For Mach 1's
So really, it doesn't seems to matter what oil or weight. everyone has the same car, (depending if your blown or not) and use 5-20 to 5-30, RP to Mobil, to Amsoil. im still interested though, so ive noticed 0-20 still out there. unless its been years since they got rid of it and brought back. so whats the situation now with 0-20. and what ARE you guys really suggesting for motor oil and filters for the Mach?

I use Brad Penn..
But the local engine builder strongly believes oil is oil and brand is personal pref.... Make sure the level is good and use what weight you want. rev it to 7000 all the time and enjoy it! |

I switched back to RP 5W-30 in 2015 because I don't daily her anymore and seem to run it harder when I do drive her lol. I figure with 4 or 5 visits to the track per season, 5W-30 makes more sense. Plus, being that the 99-01 Cobra's called for 5W-30, I believe it all boils down to CAFE standards.

In the "Nobody else cares category.." I was thinking of trying out Amsoil, but I see that Amazon caries Royal Purple HPS 5w-30, so I'm pretty sure I'm going with that here soon. They do not carry that in stores near me locally. #everyonerollseyes |

Lol, how come everyone on the web hates it so much? I can't imagine it's any worse than Mobil 1 or or any of the other big name full synthetics out there. |

Something that might be worth looking into is the Supertech carried by Wal-Mart. Someone a little smarter than I am did some research and found Supertech to have all the same qualities as other synthetic oils. For a few bucks less. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-G935A using Tapatalk |

That definitely sounds worth looking into. I'd like to run synthetic in all my cars, but the cost keeps me from doing it. |

I spent a few hours searching and aside from sending a sample out to Blackstone and proving it's worth myself, I'm going to have to avoid Royal Purple. Call it peer pressure, I suppose lol. I've been too chicken to switch to a yearly oil change with it (or Mobil 1), even though I'm around 5k or less miles per year in the Mach. I've been wanting to try Amsoil anyway, and I'd have to wait for Royal Purple HPS, so now is as good of a time as any. |
Re: Important Information About Mobile 1 Synthetic Motor Oil For Mach 1's
Ive used Mobil 1 5w20 since day one 6qrts, changed every 6 months since i hardly drive it (2k-5k/per yr). All i can say is that im satisfied with it. Call it luck or credit the oil but ive had two money shifts ( switching from 3rd to 2nd at WOT ). and everything is still fine and dandy, still runs like a beast even with the boost. surprised tranny still shifts perfect as well. *Knock on wood*
