I have the complete history of UOA's from when the truck was new, its always had 10w-30, always run to IOLM 0%, and this isn't the first run of the Deere CK-4, but it is the first uptick in FE.
As I had stated there was a warranty repair done involving the crankcase vent system.

I am going to assume the Deere lube isn't on the Ford list since it isn't officially API certified, no worries from my camp.


I would use an oil on the Ford approved list. There are plenty of quality oils on the list. I am running Delo 5W50 in my PSD. Basically CK-4 oils that were also SN rated did not have enough phosphorus. Oils that were CK-4 only are allowed a higher phosphorus level.

Then Ford needs to drop out of the API regime altogether, since any CK-4 oil would pass CJ-4 as well.

I really have no problem with a company using a proprietary spec, but Ford should pull the trigger one way or the other on this.
