Wow! The thread is active again. My last oil change on the 2005 Focus was Mobil 15000 mile stuff (can't remember the right name) while visting my daughter in NY state back at the end of June. The oil change at Wally Mart cost about $36. Up here in Canada a sythetic oil change costs about $75 so I figure I got a bargoonie. I brough back some of their house synthetic oil for about $14 per gallon. I've heard that it's Mobil 1 oil (don't know what blend).
I've got to use up this oil over the winter, after which I'm seriously considering getting some SynLube installed. I could have the stuff shipped to my daughter's place next Spring.
Houckster, I read where you are using one of those high-end oil filtering systems.
Without me reading all the SynLube stuff again, can you tell me how often I would have to change out a regular oil filter?
Would using a "regular" oil filter instead of a high-end system, change how long SynLube would be good for?
I'm still getting 41 mpg Imperial on the highway up here.
