I bought my Explorer used. The oil that came in it and what I have been using for the past year is 10W-30. I read in the owners manual that 5W-30 was recommended.
My question is, if I start using 5W-30, will the grade change hurt the engine in any way?
Also, I want to start changing my own oil. How easy(hard ) is it to get to and change the oil filter?
Thanks for the info...
