Engine oil and filter recommendations
To help achieve proper engine performance and durability, it is important
that you:
• Use only engine oil and oil filters of the proper quality.
• Change the engine oil and filter no later than the recommended
service interval. Refer to the scheduled maintenance information
for the appropriate intervals for changing the engine oil and filter.
• Change your engine oil and filter more frequently if your vehicle
operation includes extended periods of idling or low-speed operation,
driving for a long time in cold temperatures or short driving distances.
Diesel engines require specially formulated oil to resist contamination.
Proper quality oils also provide maximum efficiency of the crankcase
ventilation system which reduces air pollution.
To help achieve acceptable engine performance and durability, it is
important that only engine oils of good quality are used in your diesel
engine and it is changed at the recommended interval. For normal or
severe service, use Motorcraft oil or an equivalent oil conforming to Ford
specification WSS-M2C171–E or API service categories CJ-4 or CJ-4/SM.
It is important to use these oils because they are compatible with the
emission control equipment of your vehicle to meet the more stringent
emission standards.
