My dad has a small construction company and one of his fleet vehicles is a 2000 Ford E-350 Super Duty. He wants me to change his oil from now on. I checked the manual and it asks for 5w30. idk but should I use a higher weight? this full size van tows alot as well as carries alot in the back. Sometimes it carries an entire pallet of cement from Home Depot. So what do you guys recomend for this burly workhorse? what weight and brand?
oil for E-350 Super Duty

5w30 should be just fine. 5.4L or the 6.8L V10?
5.4L V8
Motorcraft 5W-20 or 5W-30 will do just fine. Motor back spec'd to 20
Dont worry, I wont go Pennzoil Platinum because I wont go full synthetic
If it were me, 10w30 Delo, Rotella, or Delvac.
Mystik 10w30
MotorCraft 5w-20 Semi-Syn will work for you just great+ it's a great price & value!
My '99 V10 SD hasn't had any issues with 5w-30 PP. Any 5w-30 would be fine.
I've tried 20w but didn't like the additional noise. I had M1 5w-40 TR-SUV but it felt sluggish.
5w-30 is just right. IMO.

+1 We've run MC5-20/5-30 for hundreds of thousands of miles in Ford Modulars (many with Fram filters!!) with zero issues. A perfect fit.

Any brand name 5W30 should be fine, since you don't want to go synthetic then I'd use Pennzoil YB.
I guess Ill stick with the 5w30
alright I know this sounds bad, but ive never heard of Delvac or Delo. Who makes those?
