What type of oil to use in your 6.0 powerstroke 

That's what I use, and the motorcfaft oil filters and fuel filters, I have a 2005 F250 6.0, 293 thousand miles, if u treat it right it will treat u right.

As long as u use a synthetic oil and are consistent u should be fine atleast thats wat ford said hahah oem only

Hi ryan my fellow CT resident. To answer your question Yes, for the 6.0 powerstroke platform due to the HPOP, you need the heavier 40 weight oil. 5w-40 has done very well in my personal experience, one reason i recommend that oil weight to my customers. Also you can run it all year around. I have customers in both Mass and CT. You being From CT you know what the winters and summers can be like.

I had two 6.0s and ran regular 15w40 and had nothing but trouble out of them. I traded the last one in 2014 for a new 6.7 and never looked back. I've since heard you can bulletproof them and run 5w40 making them good trucks.

Nothing wrong with Rotella at all in the 6.0. Although, when I switched to Motorcraft 15W40 semi-synthetic in mine, I noticed power gains and easier starts. 227k miles.

Same here

Rotella t6 is the best Diesel engine oil period.

Yes sir. Been meaning to get another one.

@@ScottMyers5189 haha, I hear ya there…I do that from time to time

The older ones tend to be crap before 08 after that they got most of the bugs worked out.if you've got the time you can fix most of the issues with the older ones without too much trouble things like egr deletes etc.

05 f350 166k miles, 100% stock

@@charlebrownga the 6.4 was by far more "buggy" than any problematic 6.0 I've ever seen come thru the dealer. They got better in the 11 model year, other than hpfp failing and ruining the entire fuel system, scr, nox sensor and def failures, temp sensors, exhaust manifold leaks, turbo failures, upper oil pan gasket failures, and on and on and on. The 6.0 had it's problems with plugged oil coolers and stock head bolts stretching when tuned to the moon and a teenager driving it like it was stolen. The 6.0 wasn't as bad or expensive as the newer models. I know from tons of experience as a diesel technician. I won't say anything about the 6.4, not worth my time. Garbage engine. This comment would be ten miles long listing it's known and inevitable and un fixable problems. Just stating some facts for those that don't know.

@@GriffyWdaGrippy 183+ on my 04, tuned, non "Cali compliant"... 😂 Best truck I've ever had, and that's coming from an owner of the trusty 7.3. I also have an 03' with the 7.3, and it's been a fantastic truck when it comes to reliability, but the 6.0 is so much more refined, makes a ton more power, and more efficient when pulling heavy. I love my 6.0, it's been just as reliable for me as my 7.3. the best trucks you can get in my highly experienced opinion as a certified Ford diesel technician of well over a decade and counting.

When did I say that in the vid? please mark the time in the vid..... where you think I said that???
