Oil type
Hello eveyone. New to the forum.
I just recently purchased a 2005 king ranch and needing to change the oil and filter, now heres the thing, the truck has a new jasper 5.4 with the upgrades to the oil canals and or oil pump, something like that. So do I use the motorcraft 5w-20 synthetic or should I use a heavier oil?

Not in a F series but in the E series our fleet has accumulated several million miles..
With the Texas climate I would recommend 5W-30 which is what we use. Being as an oil change is every 2-3 months which is 5K miles on Dino oil, we will often times run 10W-30 in the Summer months.

250, 000 when I traded it in with the same timing belt and water pump. Never an engine issue.
