After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Your 1991 Mustang’s oil should be changed according to Ford’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Mustang in the above table. Outside of Ford-recommended oil change intervals, your Mustang may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Ford if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Ford Mustang. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
