Sup guys!? Havent been on in a while and im probably beating a dead horse, but still have to ask. I recently changed my oil and went to full synthetic 10W30. Now I am a Ford tech turned accounts manager(lol) so I know these cars had 5W30 as the recommended viscosity, but accoriding to the shop manual 10W30 was acceptable. The car has 143k miles and has only bolt ons with 4.30 gears. Anybody experience any engine issues with 10W30? I live in So-California btw, where it doesnt get below 39 or over 110 temp. Engine sounds healthy, but im having a good amount of oil get caught in the oil separator which is the reason I tried 10W30 in addition to someone recommending I should try that. Engine doesnt smoke unless I go WOT and then its only a puff at times. I do add the 7qts and use nothing but motorcraft oil filters with Pennzoil full synthetic. any recommendations? feedback would be really appreciated
