When doing oil changes buy a K&n oil filter.
Sometimes I can make 2500 and have actually reached 3k miles without adding oil.
Cheap ones are crazy and every time I use the oil filter I get at Walmart oil changes I’m adding oil at 1500 miles.
The motorcraft filters I've seen for fords have the pressure relief at the end that screws on, top in most cases. Most others have it at the bottom. Since crud settles to the bottom if that relief opens with the relief at the bottom its gonna send that crud into the engine.
For my 2010 3.0L V6 Fusion I loaded up on the Havoline Pro-DS full synthetic 6quart eco boxes in the 0w20, 5w20, and 5w30 viscosities and always run a Motorcraft FL-500S filter.
My 315k mile powerstroke goes 7500 with no noticeable wear with motorcraft filters
Amsoil and Subaru filters. Other vehicles with horrible oil filter locations I use K&N because I can use a socket to pop them off.
I'm trying out that Rotella T6 5W-40 some of y'all talk about. Just snagged it off Amazon.
I also use K&N filters cause they've got a 1" nut welded on top.
Motorcraft filter enjoyer here as well. Oil wise i treat mine with mobile 1 5w20 full synthetic high milage. (142k, mgm 2004 atm).
I'm still running my K&N oil filter, though I've got a Mahle that I ordered along with the ABA pump.
I refuse to buy K&N after one failed and burst apart on my Honda CB1100 a couple of years ago.
i had a k&n on my car, immediately i noticed how much lighter and cheaper feeling it was compared to the previous bosch filter i had, also noticed it had a round gasket opposed to the flat one found on most oil filters, but despite this i ran it anyways, a month goes by and i notice my car is starting to leave puddles of oil everywhere, i put it in the shop and lift it up and sure enough the oil is leaking right from the shitty gasket on the k&n filter, replaced it with a bosch and haven’t had an issue
