Please bare with me fellas as this is my first brand new car and first real car (car with a V-8).
Anyway to the question at hand. I want to go full synthetic and was thinking of going with Mobil as my oil. I have done an oil change at 800 miles and used Motorcraft premium synthetic blend. I am currently at 2200 miles and want to do a change at 3000 miles. I drive 100+ miles round trip to work 5 days a week (mostly interstate) and want the engine to have a long and strong life. My questions are:
1. What would be the benifits of me personally going to a full sythetic (if any)?
2. Do I have to use a different filter then the standard Fram or (insert generic brand here)?
3. How long between oil changes is ideal for a engine running on full synthetic?
4. What brand do you recommend?
Sorry for the novel and thanks in advance for your help.
