i put about 14.5 quarts of Shell Rotella 5w-40 synthetic oil in mine the last change. also a FL1995 Motorcraft filter, available now at Wal-Mart. it has the Powerstroke tribal badge on the side of the box, pretty cool. i changed my oil out at 4000-4500 miles, and i sent in the analysis canister this past thursday.
