Engine Oil
We recommend Motorcraft motor oil for
your vehicle. If Motorcraft motor oil is not
available, use motor oil of the
recommended viscosity grade that meets
our specification WSS-M2C171-F1. You can
find the list of approved motor oils at
www.motorcraft.com.
Do not use engine oil additives as they
could lead to engine damage not covered
by your vehicle warranty.
The use of correct oil viscosities for diesel
engines is important for satisfactory
operation. Determine which oil viscosity
best suits the temperature range you
expect to encounter for the next service
interval from the SAE Viscosity Grades
chart.
