Can I use 5w30 instead of 5w20 in my Ford?
In 2011, Ford started recommending 5w30 for the turbocharged 3.5 Ecoboost engines, but they haven’t changed the recommendation for the non-turbo duratec. You can run both 5w20 or 5w30 safely on these engines (turbocharged and non-turbo). Both oils will work great.
What happens if you use synthetic blend instead of full synthetic?
For most vehicles, synthetic blend is a good choice. If your vehicle speficies that full synthetic is required, then a synthetic blend will not be okay – it could actually leave your engine vulnerable to damage.
Should I use synthetic or synthetic blend?

Synthetic blend oil is more affordable but will not provide the same great performance that comes with full synthetic.
