WTF! Why are you giving out random advice about things you are not incredibly knowledgable on! Mobil 1 is the way to go! Ask ANYONE on the boards. ANYONE!

I got something like Puralator, used them the last 2 changes, had no problems. Im now using a Castrol Synthetic Blend, car is running cooler and smoother. So Im happy with it. I spent 15$ at Meijer for all of my oil change stuff.

Mobil 1 is a great OIL to use.
Motorcraft is a great FILTER to use.
The dude was talking about motorcraft filters.
Don't make me force you to take another high-speed drive up M-119 bix.

I was saying Motorcraft FILTERS, not Motorcraft oil, Mobil 1 is a great OIL, there are filters are most likely good to, Motorcraft filters are the best to use because the car was designed to use it. I use Motorcraft filters and Valvoline oil.

I've never bought a wrong oil filter for any car from AZ. Just look up the # in the book. Not too hard.
