No service records ought from a used car dealer.Records on carfax when I bought it showed roughly 5k oil changes.I might have to try and look the car fax backup but the last oil change was done at a performance shop instead of a ford dealer or an oil change place.Not sure why they would of taken it their.So that has me wondering a few questions.

I saw glitter in every oil change on my new 1980 Corvette, 4 spd. It took 15 years before hearing a tap, and finding my cam and lifters were toast. Took me 5 days to buy and install a mild performance Erson cam. That along with a free flow Cat, the car ran like it should have from Chevrolet.

Send it to Blackstone for an oil analysis. Its really easy.
Kind of wasting money - you can already see
the glitter and oil tests won't detect anything big enough to see (only about ten times smaller if I remember correctly)
