I personally use the Ford motorcraft OEM filters in the largest size that fits cleanly with a similar bypass pressure.

Every 5000 miles, it's time for 16 quarts of oil and a filter the approximate size of a Nalgene bottle.
I had a 2007 Taurus. Oil leakage was the main issue. Get it up on a rack at your favorite service shop and get the oil leaks taken care of. Oil filter is above the starter, so if you are having starter issues, look to see if there is an oil leak on the starter.
My personal recommendation is a Ford OEM filter, 10qt Pennz Ultimate Platinum 5w30, and one bottle of Ceratec to help with the infamous "Coyote tick". Many will argue for Ceratec, many will argue against. All I know is my car is quieter with than without.
Been running Pennzoil Ultra and Ford OEM filter on my PP1 and now my Mach 1 for 5 years. Never had a single issue, even with some track days and AutoX.
I added one to my Ford Excursion years ago. Loved having it. Turn the key to on, wait for the oil pressure gauge to register, crank.
Plus I've been told its a better filter typically from the dealer.
My XJ channels its ww2 roots with Ford diesel oil and an FL-1A filter.
when I did the first oil change on my car I removed an aftermarket Filter. The OEM filter was about 1/3 larger, and weighed the same as the aftermarket filter full of oil. Just makes me wonder how much more there is inside the OEM filter.
