This was awesome content. I have a Dark Horse and did my first break in oil change at 1000. Amsoil is my go-to and happy this video confirmed everything I believed and was reading. Keep it up brother!
Great video with a lot of useful information. Even if it's too late for me to do a break-in oil change (just did my first change at 3600), this video had other useful tidbits for me and I'll be switching to Amsoil on the next oil change. (I can confirm from experience oil in the non-PP GT does get hot on the track.) Solid, approachable, to the point. Earned a sub from me. Thank you!
ford actually recommends keeping the factory oil in for the regular maintenance term (5-6k miles) for proper break in. The break in oil is already in the motor when you buy new. No reason to change it out until you hit 2500-3000 miles AT LEAST, but many people do..
Well what they claim and what the actual data suggests is two different things it seems. Where does Ford recommend that? This is the first I'm hearing of it
@@THEDriverMod_ I've seen it on forums. I am not a mustang guy I actually come from a GR86 and I am looking for my next sports cars. I test drove the new mustang and loved it but things I keep reading about it put me off.
@MR3DDev I was a tech gor years, although the sound is annoying. It's not detrimental to reliability or performance. What is your intended purpose with the car?
Are you saying there's absolutely no silicone from assembly that is getting into the oil? I'm not saying your wrong and some of that is just "dirt" but there was literally blue silicone/assembly debris in the filter when I cut it open
@@THEDriverMod_ I've rebuilt a few engines and yea I get a few flobs of silicone in the oil pump screen, but I would guess that silicon is from debris during the engine build/assembly process, or sanding/grinding remnants of some part but how on a new OEM motor build(?) as the quality is so much better than decades ago, or gulp from the oem's contaminated oil fill, maybe, but again their quality is so much better these days???
That reinforces my preference to do an initial oil drain & fill early, but our oil refill quality and cleanliness in the shop needs to be on point to keep dust and debris outa that big$$$ motor
