I would just make CERTAIN you use the Motorcraft FL-500S oil Filter to ensure the proper oil flow and here's a good video on the Chain tensioner and using the proper oil filter.  Z        https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gwliuNGflV4

So I got 5w-30 AIMSOIL however my cars oil cap says 5w-20. Should I return the AIMSOIL and get 5w-20 instead or does it not matter? My car is a 2010 mks

That goss' garage video is crap lol....i hate people that advise against aftermarket alternatives....he states going oem is the best way to go...motorcraft products are middle of the road at best...Z as anal as you are about care and  maintenance im surprised you use that filter

Amsoil still shows 5w-20 for the older ecoboost...which tells me ford still uses that for those engines...amsoil is really good at updating their product recommendations to reflect what the OEM says for liability reasons
