What is the best oil and fuel recommended for the FG XR6T, there are so many types out there, I have tried only the V-power from shell and it seems very thirsty at present, I haven't tried BP Ultimate or Caltex Vortex yet. in 98 octane. I haven't tried any of  the 95 octane yet.I would like to see which gives the best mileage, the performance is second at this stage, as the car has plenty of guts anyways. I haven't changed the oil yet however Castrol Magnetic was highly recommended, Mobil ! 0W 40 is a bit too expensive. Any help or assistance would be appreciated.

Use the search function there's a heap of threads on these topics already.

Oil is up to you but ford recommend a 15-40. 98 is recommended, BP seems to be the go over other names.

Nulon 15w 40 full syn is cheap. 

Run 95 if you have to. The ecu will pull timing back to suit the fuel you run I believe. Or the knock sensor will. 

These things are thirsty anyway. Get it tuned if you want better economy.
