So even though our engines have no "break in" period, the tech called the Ford hotline because he noticed the fluid looked like the break in oil used in the Shelby's

Sure enough there is special oil that is added from the factory to condition the seals and should not be drained until 4K.

I guess it would if this were a fat chick dating forum...

Although, she is kind of slow compared to the old girl...

And she weighs 4425lbs.....

So yeah, I guess retarded fat girl works.

So with this "break in" oil, what is the recommended driving style initially?  Doesn't matter, or vary the speeds etc.?

If tuned:  Take note of the strategy code as you return to stock (including 3 bar MAP to 2 bar MAP) -> take car in & get it serviced -> check strategy code when you get car back -> have tuner update your tune if the strategy code has changed -> reload tune -> ENJOY!

Scratch that.

I bought two gallons and he got a gallon and 1/2 (6 quarts) in it.

High Command says to "drive normally".

She knows what normal means for me so I'm not going to worry about it.
