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 1987 Lynx’s oil should be changed according to Mercury’s recommended oil change intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Lynx may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Mercury recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, go off-roading a lot, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Mercury Lynx. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care has the right 1987 Mercury Lynx motor oil: either synthetic or conventional. Mercury has most likely outlined either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 1987 Lynx.
