Synthetic Motor Oil for 3.0 DOCH Duratec?

[CarolinaKid2004]

Does anyone have experience using synthetic motor oil in a 3.0 DOHC Duratec? If so, what viscosity? Thanks for any info folks can share.

either 5W30 or 10W30 would work

I run Mobil 1 10w/30 in my 2000 duratec.

I put a ton of highway miles on it and change it every 5K and I also use Mobil 1 filters.

10W30 if you live in the southern US, 5W30 if you live in the northern US, and switch them out between summer and winter if you live somewhere between.
