The Ford F-150 is famous for its exceptional performance and impressive capability on the Normal roads, and much of that power comes from the cutting-edge engines under the hood. To keep your Ford F-150 engine running optimally, you’ll need to perform regular oil changes with the recommended Ford F-150 oil filters and oil types. So, what is the manufacturer-recommended Ford F-150 oil type? Get all the details with this guide from the service team at Sam Leman Ford.
While several Ford F-150 engine options are available on new and pre-owned models, many have the same recommended Ford F-150 oil types. When buying engine oil for your next Ford F-150 oil change, you’ll likely need either SAE 5W-30 or SAE 0W-30 full synthetic oil, with the latter used mostly in colder climates. That said, always check your owner’s manual or talk to the experts in our parts department for more information on your specific make and model before purchasing your Ford F-150 oil filter and oil replacement.
While shopping for your Ford F-150 oil, you’ll notice two types of oil on the Decatur market: Synthetic and conventional. While both are used to lubricate vehicle engines, the differences between synthetic and conventional oil are significant. See why Ford recommends pure synthetic oil for your F-150 below:
