Yep, the cheapest (and of course it ainā€™t that cheep, but itā€™s all relative) thing you can do for ANY engine.

Use a quality synthetic and change it more often than you ā€œthinkā€ and certainly more often than some ā€œintelligentā€ computer says.

Too often of a change wonā€™t cause problems or void your warranty, but not often enough just might.

Last 2 changes were Amsoil OE, latest is XL Boosted. Feels ā€œthickerā€ than the OE but I swear the temp gauge runs one notch lower.
I dumped the Motorcraft Synthetic Blend at 880 miles. I was thinking on putting that back in next change just for kicks to see how it feels on a full 4000 mile run (longest Iā€™ll go on any oil).

Pennzoil Ultra Platinum and Motorcraft filter. Been using this combo for years on various Fords in my family and never had an issue related to lubrication or lack ofšŸ˜†.

Iā€™m using the Signature Series at 9,000 mile intervals with Amsoils Ea15k51 filter. With an oil analysis done. Because of the turbo thatā€™s a safe time to do an oil change with out worry.
