My oil pan is leaking and my guy put motorcraft 5w-20 from UAE but when I used to fill it with the one from the US it never leaked. Bad oil?

Over there, as hot as it is, I would be running a 10w-30, or even a 10w-40 synthetic oil. Not a 5w-20. The 5w-20 was spec'd by Ford to improve gas mileage over here in the US. But it hurts engine life and durability. How many miles are on your Expy ?

Wrong oil + wrong "guy" = a recipe for disaster :D

Take it somewhere else & make sure they use the 10W-30/40, like, now....
