viperclive Posted March 22, 2014 Report Posted March 22, 2014 I have a mk1 2.3 petrol, oil I believe should be 5w-30, but is that full synthetic or part, tried to find on forum with no luck. Quote
insanitybeard Posted March 22, 2014 Report Posted March 22, 2014 (edited) Ford's own original oil (possibly Formula E) was a 5/30 semi synthetic, which would have been in use when the Mk2 (and Mk1 obviously) petrol Galaxy was in production, so as long as whatever oil you get meets Ford's specs it shouldn't matter if it's semi or fully synthetic. Ford have since upgraded their 5/30 oil to Formula F I believe which is fully synthetic, but this has happened since the 2.3 petrol engine ceased manufacture.
