Default Couple of Questions

Hey, I'm new here i just got a 95 Mustang GT 5spd after some idiot totaled my Prelude. I've switched from burning Rice to burning Gas (lots of it the way i drive) but i have some questions (a few of them n00bish) so i'll get started

1. I need to change the oil, what weight should I go for? standard 10w-30? any specific brands for oil and filter?

2. What radiator fluid do i use?

3. My alternator makes a low "buzzing" noise when i rev the engine, is it supposed to?

4. Is there a power difference between an X-pipe and an H-pipe? Which is better.

Thank you very much guys! I LOVE my stang :-D

1. i use syntech 5w-30 and ford motorcaft filter. i change my oil every 3,000 miles.
2. just use a good quality antifreeze and mix it 50-50 with water.
3. are you sure its the alternator and not the power steering pump making the noise. ford power steering pumps make more noise than others. if it is the alternator you may want to have it checked out.
4. the x-pipe makes more power than the h-pipe but has a little diffrent sound. i have the off road x-pipe and two chamber flowmasters with dumps and i love the way it sounds.
