mintalkin Posted May 14, 2010 Share Posted May 14, 2010 the oil your after is 5w-30 semi synthetic, price difference on the filter is minimum so i would use ford. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mondeoman Posted May 14, 2010 Author Share Posted May 14, 2010 Thanks for the swift reply people.. :D .....Bill One final question . Is it ok to use that grade in fully syntetic guise ? The reason i ask is a mate of mine in the motor trade can get Fully Syntetic very cheaply.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mondeoman Posted May 16, 2010 Author Share Posted May 16, 2010 Fully synthetic yes or no peoples ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mintalkin Posted May 17, 2010 Share Posted May 17, 2010 should be ok as long as it comes up to ford specs as some fully synthetic does not. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
