    Originally recommended by the manufacturer is Ford Formula 5W30 and if nothing happens and nothing "takes" while I'm left, it probably was flooded 3 years ago ... - according to the manufacturer comes in 4.3l

    Generally, despite such a low mileage within 3 years, it is not advisable to wait so long with the replacement of oil - replacement after driving a specific number of kilometers is just one of the criteria for replacement - (oil should be replaced every 15,000km or every year) on one of the sites I found such info:

    Ford Focus 1 1.8b - What oil for the engine and transmission with a mileage of 3


    The original Ford oil - 75W-90 (WSD-M2C200-C) - goes about 2.5 liters

    I would forget about the synthetics. It's a little bit like for year and LPG.
    Picassa, LPG, 2002, 1.8 - 15W40, mentioned 3 years ago, up-to-date refills. I think I will replace now, I drive a little, some 30,000 a year. Opel oil, inexpensive.
    BMW, 1.6, LPG, 1993 10W40, listed 2 years ago. About 15-20 thousand a year, the engine has 340 thousand driven. Only refills.
    As you can see, the type of oil for age is not affected. I would take the cheapest fivepacks. Unless the mechanic will give you a tap and replace yourself. Less work. Avoid oils intended for LPG engines, they are weak. My friend told me that once, a lamp of 3,000 lit on such oil caught fire. No one will be bullshit on my head so I pressed and bought oil for gas. He was right, a few thousand and a control at my place. I exchanged at 15W40 the cheapest and it was better. It sounds like a fairy tale, but from then on I avoid oil with an inscription to LPG. That oil was Orlen. 15W40 sounds like a mantra, but if I did not know what to pour my mechanic ordered Oplowski to buy and it's ok.
    The decision is yours.

    In spite of everything, I would pour 5w40 min - you can do something good - for a good price, for example: Total Energy 5w40 (about PLN 80 for 5L) or Gulf Formula G (similar price). Possibly, something like Lotos, ELF - cheap prices and engine parameters will not kill.
