* Engine Type: There were multiple engine options for the 2002 Mustang (V6, V8, etc.). Each engine has different oil specifications.
* Driving Conditions: Factors like your climate, driving style, and whether you tow or haul heavy loads influence the best oil viscosity.
* Owner's Manual: The most accurate information will be found in your car's owner's manual. It specifies the recommended oil type and viscosity for your exact engine.
To find the right oil, I recommend the following:
1. Consult your owner's manual: It will provide the most accurate information.
2. Check your oil cap: Many modern cars have oil recommendations printed on the oil cap.
3. Visit a trusted mechanic or auto parts store: They can provide expert advice based on your specific engine and driving conditions.
Keep in mind:
* Always use oil that meets the specifications outlined in your owner's manual.
* Consider using synthetic oil for better performance and protection, especially if you drive in extreme conditions or frequently change oil.
Remember, using the wrong oil can damage your engine and void your warranty.
