What kind of engine oil is best for Ford Mustang?
1 Answers
Turbocharged engines should use full synthetic oil with a viscosity of 40, while naturally aspirated engines should use full synthetic oil with a viscosity of 60. Below is the relevant introduction: 1. Engine differences: The Mustang uses two types of engines, one is a 2.3-liter turbocharged engine, and the other is a 5.0-liter V8 naturally aspirated engine. 2. Oil selection method: Since the V8 engine generates higher heat and operates at higher RPMs, it requires oil with higher viscosity. During normal engine operation, the oil forms a thin film on the surfaces of various engine components, preventing direct contact and friction between them. 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 engine components, which will accelerate engine wear. If the viscosity is too high, it will increase the resistance during engine operation, affecting power output and fuel economy.
