For oil you should use Royal purple 5w-30
Oil filter royal purple also
Spark plugs use E3
This combination will have your car running better than new
You can get all of this at pep boys
 
I'll give the counter to that. I've heard a lot about royal purple being crap.

I recommend Mobil 1 5W-20 or 0W-20, but really any full synthetic should be good, just stick to 5W20 or 0W20 (0W20 being the best).
 
Hey joe, what's your opinion on something like Mobil 1 high mileage? Does it actually help?

I've just used Motorcraft ever since I bought the car.

I don't know. What problem are you hoping for it to help with? If you don't have any problems (oil leaks or oil burning), I wouldn't use it.

Not exactly
I used that oil on the 04 mustang gt I previously had with over 130k miles and the car ran smoother after
There was almost no engine noise after I put royal purple in it

Royal purple was tested
They put it up against Mobil 1 full synthetic (they covered the label but you could tell by the bottle)
And royal purple beat Mobil 1 in a wear test
Look it up on you tube joegr
 
hey boys the second link shows some coils for v6 and they mark compatible with v8!
not true right
 
I went on ebay get my spark plug wires but they only show the coils, are there any wires to it or just ignition coils, I'm pretty confused on this. I have 2002 lincoln ls v8. where are the spark plugs located at also?

There are no spark plug wires. It's a coil on plug setup. The spark plugs are under the coils.
