What kind of engine oil does Mustang use?

[JustinAnn]

Turbine engines use full synthetic oil with a viscosity of 40, while naturally aspirated engines use full synthetic oil with a viscosity of 60. The Mustang is equipped with two types of engines: one is a 2.3-liter turbocharged engine, and the other is a 5.0-liter V8 naturally aspirated engine. Here are the details: 1. Because the V8 engine generates more heat and operates at higher speeds, it requires oil with higher viscosity. During normal engine operation, the oil forms a film on the surface of various engine components, preventing direct contact and friction between them. 2. The viscosity of the oil should not be too high or too low. If the viscosity is too low, the oil cannot form a stable film on the surfaces of the engine components, which will increase engine wear. If the viscosity is too high, it will increase the resistance during engine operation, affecting the engine's power output and fuel economy.
