Motorcraft 5w40 Synthetic Oil

[blueoneton]

I was on another website and I see Motorcraft 5w40 Synthetic Diesel Oil. I didn't know it existed. I went to the Ford website and it does exist. I have of course used the MC 15w40 in the past, but changed over to Rotella T 15w40 a while back.

The new MC 5w40 sounds like a decent choice but they must stay priced with others like Shell's 5w40 to sell this oil. Anyone here think thay may give the MC 5w40 a shot? My guess is only the dealers/ oil jobbers have it now.

I would have to see it with my own eyes before I decide. I am not sure it is real at this time.

I run Mobil Delvac 1 5W-40 but have never seen Motorcraft 5W-40. If they made it I would not hesitate to use it.

i love how they "claim" its a light AND heavy duty oil...pretty
much covers it....its everything for EVERY ONE !

of COURSE ford endorses it for their engines...THEY SELL IT !

lets see another engine mfg (even international for example)
endorse it...ask yourself...why doesnt ford endorse OTHER
oils w/ the SAME ratings ??? <hint, they dont make $ on OTHER oils>

I guess we will have to wait and see on this one, but it is in the MC Lubricants/Chemical Catalogs section. Other than that, I think the Bob Is The Oil Guy has a pretty good site.
