Originally posted by Black98SEatx: Ford Technician here, I really believe in Mobil 1 synthetics. I have used it in my tour from when i bought it at 28,000 miles till now i have 42,500 miles. pros- longer engine life, decreased wear,less repairs, runs smoother, cooler, and feels more powerful. All due to synthetic oil being perfectlly clean, (doesn't have to be refined)resulting in less deposits in the engine.Added lubrication due to syn. additives. cons-none in my view except price($4.25 a qt.) and still have to change every 3,000 miles, people always think they can run syn. oil longer intervals Not True!!!every 3,000 miles or 3 months!
Well, I have my oil analyzed, and they tell me that my oil which had 5500 miles on it could have gone longer...
