2000 Mounty. 396,x.. miles on original motor. Been using 5W-30 Mobil 1 and Mobil 1 filters since new.
Since 200,000 miles have used Mobil 1 "High Mileage" 5W-30. I now have 395,x.. miles on original motor.
Changed oil and filter (M301) today. Never noticed I'd bought 5W-20 until I was all done!
Will this cause a problem?
Will it damage my motor to make a 6 mile round trip at 40mph to auto parts shop to buy 5W-30? If there's the slightest chance it will, I'll get a ride instead.
Thanks everyone!
