Old spec was 75W90 but Ford has since updated to 75W140.... Sorry, can't remember TSB number for the updated oil spec.

I believe the 75W 140 is what the mechanic told me, I bought some 75w90 bc that's what the parts house pulled up in his book, and somehow that did not seem right. I'm figuring the friction modifier is basically the same, all I remember is that he said it would need two small jars, which I have. Thanks sincerely for the help. I'll make it to Advance Auto tomorrow and get the right stuff. Thanks again, Drew

How about your owner's manual. It should have the info.
