Oil aka life blood of the 6.7 diesel Beast what’s your oil preference?

[Patriot]

Just thought I would post up the full synthetic oil I have chose to run in my Tremor. And honestly this is not to start a my oil brand is better than your oil thread. It’s just a thread to learn about what everyone is using and what they prefer. I chose Schaeffers 5W40 full synthetic simply because my buddy who is a Ford diesel tech uses it now and highly recommends it based on his experience with (3) previous 6.7’s. It’s got really solid reviews and coming up on my first 5k change and this what I am going to roll with. I ordered a case and two additional qts.

That reminds me I also added a Fumoto 106n drain valve to make it even easier for me.

I will be adding mine at the first oil change. Keeping it simple. ??

Dan, I don’t see a 106n for the 2020 F 250 diesel...here is what I see-

For Ford 2020 F-250 6.7L V8 Diesel Turbo

The 137N is correct. I put the 106N on my Jeeps.

I use all Amsoil 5W40 diesel Max Duty with the Amsoil EAO 98 Filter. Take 9 qts. I am not extending the change intervals. 7,500 MAX miles for me. I get commercial price on the oil so its only a tick more than the others, why cheap out and go any longer?

I have it in all my cars, trucks, boats, equipment, never a problem.

I have not installed it yet. I will at first oil change. Nothing but solid reviews, I have no concerns about installing it. ??

I'm with Warpath.....using rotella T-6, 5w-40 winter, 15W-40 Summer...and I add an oil additive (Archoil). Full Synthetic by the way. And I also treat EVERY tank of fuel (Archoil fuel additive also).

Whatcha got here? Obviously, oil filters, but then 2 different air filters? And some mystery boxes in the bottom?

Hey Brother Bill! good eyes! haha ??
With plans to pull our travel trailer this summer out west, I opted to stock up on a few extras. So I picked up oil, fuel, air and pre air filters and the fuel water separator filter as well. My plan is to carry a service or at least one of each while on the road and syn oil.

Thanks for the link! Looks like pretty good pricing on the filters. I need to build up my inventory.
