There's a TSB out there on the dipstick not reading correctly on the 4v's. 6 Qts is the correct fill.10thanniv said:Alright, I decided on Mobil 1, 5w30 which I think for street use will work out fine. Question, I put 6 quarts in with a new Motorcraft FL820 oil filter and the dip stick looks about 1/2 quart low. Is this normal? Do these actually require 6 1/2 qts. with filter change? Should I add 1/2 or leave at 6 qts.?

mustangrmyk said:What is the TSB about? Is there a correction or just information? My '01 Cobra always reads 1/2 low with oil and filter & 6 qts. So does my '96 GT (6 qts)but my wife's '00 GT has always been right on with 5 qts. Seems like they're all over the place.
Is the TSB available on line or "top secret" at the dealers only?
Thanks.
Here's the link for the post from the Tribologist that talks about different oils including RP. I suggest everyone take some time and read what this guy says...mustangrmyk said:Hey, UM, I remember you saying a while back that you didn't like Royal Purple. I think you said you wouldn't use it in your lawn mower. How come?
