You should use the oil recommended in the owners manual. If you don't have one, get one from MOTORLIT.COM. No. The use, or not, of synthetic oil is completely up to you as the owner of the vehicle, and has no effect, good or bad, on your vehicle's warranty. Warranty terms cannot compel you to use specific brands or types of oil, only the viscosity(5W30, 10W30, etc.).

Yes you can.
For a Mercury Cougar XR7 1994 V6, you should use a synthetic oil that meets the manufacturer's recommended viscosity grade, which is likely 5W-30. Some recommended synthetic oil brands for this vehicle include Mobil 1, Castrol EDGE, and Valvoline SynPower. Be sure to consult your owner's manual for specific recommendations.
Engine oil?? 5W30 synthetic is best.
The correct oil weight is now 5W20; it used to be 5W30, but Ford has recently allowed your engine to use 5W20 as an energy saving oil. If you don't use synthetic oil, stick with the 5W30; non-synthetic 5W20 will burn out your engine faster than non-synthetic 5W30.
