😬 😬 😬 Yes it has explained it, thank you Brent Chiswick Rick

Brent Chiswick, what you say contradicts the advice given by two engine builders I have spoken to. I rang a Mr Chris Smith @ Raceline yesterday and he confirms what Se7en-Up said, and that they would only recommend 10/40 Semi Synthetic oil for both Silver and Black top engines when used in a 7 type environment, i.e. hard driving high revving use but with regular oil changes. Regards, Confused of Bristol

Just when I thought I had the answer............... ☹️

No mine is not a race engine it's a brand new standard Ford production unit , I bought it from Tiger Cars in Wisbech. All I have done is fit a pair of Weber carburettors and a custom welded low level sump. Rick

Who is he Rick

Thank you for your replies however I am still a bit confused, I have now got hold of a Haynes Mondeo manual and this confirms what you both (not Se7en-Up!) say in that you should use 5/30. The problem is that the Mondeo engine is a SILVER TOP and mine is a BLACK TOP (from the Focus I believe) . i.e. it has solid lifters so would you still use the same oil? I rang the company I bought the engine from and they say use 10/40 semi synthetic??? So now I am really confused Rick

Can someone tell me which oil to use in a 2L ZETEC please? Rick

ALL EFA's POSTS DELETED. I would like to think he has taken my advice, but I doubt it!

I have been in sales and marketing all my working life and have been, and still am extremely successful and now at the pinnacle of my career. I know absolutely nothing about, composites, carbon fibre or the other products you have been discussing. What I do know is that the attitude and temperament EFA has shown/adopted will ensure has he will NEVER EVER succeed in marketing his products to the true professionals within his proposed target market. In layman’s terms that EFA ‘may’ understand I offer this (free and without prejudice) advice, shut up whilst you still have a remote chance of making you new venture successful, or risk loosing your not insignificant initial investment. Anonymous maybe, but someone who actually gives a dam.

If you go back upstairs you will have to start looking at all the "SPOTTED" and "WHICH TYRES" threads, how boring much more fun down here.
