[QUOTE="BigBlueOval, post: 14683714, member: 165004"] 4.6 3 valve cylinder walls/oil control rings only receive "splash" and windage lubrication, with an oil level that low very little oil makes it to the cylinder walls. The oil control ring begins to run dry, heat and friction do the rest. Usually the only time oil spec is questioned is if the customer has an ESP, then all previous maintenance records are examined. This thread is not about the oil spec as much as it is about neglect. There is more to this story that is not being told. [/QUOTE]
