Hi. Just wondering, actually for some advice, in regards to my GT 350 R sitting for 5 months and not being driven at all. I have had it covered up in the garage at 60 degrees. What I am wondering about is the engine oil. I put 1800 miles on it last summer and fall. Purchased in late august. I parked it in late October. I religiously checked the oil, and luckily did not have to add any oil last year. So one question I have is, should I change the engine oil immediately before I start heavy usage this spring ?
Next question I have is how often do you guys change the oil in your GT 350's. Mine is a 2019 , build number 377. delivered in early august. 1800 miles. No oil change yet.
Next has anybody heard of a motor oil by the name of " DRIVEN FR 50". I just heard about on a YouTube video from a GT 350 owner who states that this " DRIVEN FR 50" developed by Joe Gibbs racing, is a superior engine oil, especially for GT 350's that sit for long periods of time because it eliminates condensation build up. The guy goes onto really bad mouth motorcraft engine oil because he says it causes white foam build up, and it might contribute to premature engine failures, especially for GT 350's sitting idle for months. Next he went on to bad mouth amsoil, which is the engine oil he was previously using.
Is this " DRIVEN FR 50" worth trying ?
Thanks.
