Amsoil XL 5w-30 full synthetic and a motorcraft filter... You get 10k mile drain intervals with this particular amsoil, but I usually only run it to 6k.

I use Amsoil XL which is a full synthetic. I look at it as a cost savings on the 10k between oil changes.

I use the Ea0 Amsoil filter because it is good for 25K. That means I only change the filter every other time (I do drain it at the oil change).

Have you ever cut open a conventional oil filter?
