I put 10 quarts of 5W50- (due to blower) full syn motor oil and 2 bottles of CERATEC. 1 bottle of ceratec per 5 quarts of oil = 2 bottles ceratec. Tick gone!Just got my oil changed and that tick is making me tick, so I'm thinking of throwing in a bottle of Ceratec. Do you guys use the full 10 quarts of oil and just dump the Ceratec in, or do you use less oil? Any risk of overfilling?
Side note: Been toying with the idea of 5w30 on the next oil change. I live in Georgia, so temps are blazing in the summer and winters are a crap shoot (several days of 40s to low 50s, then milder days. Hover around and below freezing in the mornings). Would 5w30 be ok to use year-round in our climate?
I run 5w50 in mine all the time but has a supercharger on itI run my car hard and this is what Ford specs for the Boss ect.. South Ga has high ambient temps and I like high temp protection.
Lol.. I changed my oil yesterday, the first time since adding the ceratec and forgot I put it in there, my heart skipped a beat as I watched it drain... until I remembered that I added it last oil change.The only thing i dislike about the ceratec is it discolors the oil to a milky color. (MILKSHAKE) I wish it did not have that effect. If you didn't know any better you would think you had a blown head gasket via the oil.

I'll be trying the 5w30 and Ceratec combo at the next oil change for sure!What’s going on guys,
just wanted to share my very recent personal experience. Bought a Gen 3 a few months back and immediately after the first oil change I started hearing the infamous tick. The oil I ran was Castrol Edge Full Synthetic 5W30, 9.5qts, and throw in a whole bottle of ceratec. I turned the car on let it get up to temp. And the ticking has been gone ever since.
Wanted to share just because there is a lot of different opinions/experiences out there with the Ceratec product… in my book it’s definitely earned it’s place on my shelf.
