Are you looking for it to run in your L? I thought you were running Amsoil 0w30 or 20w50.

Just wondering why the switch.

ouch!

That's a smokin' ad kobiashi but do you think the 5W-30 will give you higher oil pressure then the 5w-20? These motors have a bad habit of puking oil out of the oil passenge on the passengerside head gasket....

Wal-Mart

What he said. Wal-mart, $1.79 a quart.

I checked the prices at the Ford Dealer and he quoted me $2.80/qt. I told him no way wal-mart was much cheaper. He said Oh really, we pay $2.20/qt!
