Oil
What oil do you lot recommend, I would normally use mobil 1 but went for some cheapy stuff last time 
No problems but maybe got a bit thin when running at full chat. Anyway, gonna change it again and wana know what peeps suggest? mobil 1 / castrol I guess?
It is a standard 1600 cvh running 10psi

Use 5/30 fully synthetic oil. As long as it's this grade you should be fine. Thats the grade ford told me to use.

5w30 seems a bit thin for a cvh,think about the age of the engine and how many miles it has done,5w30 would be ok for 16 valve and the like, i would personally use 15w50 mobil 1
