The recommended type of oil that should be used in the 2000 Ford F-150 iS5W-20 Synthetic for the best performance. The capacity for the truck iS6 quarts with a filter and the torque for the drain plug is 17-22 ft/lbs for the 4.2 L V6 and 10 ft/lbs for the rest of the engines. Oil is really important because it helps to keep the engine clean and running smoothly. The cost of oil is around $8 to $12 per quart or around $48 to $72 to fully fill up the full 6 quarts. You should change the oil and the filter every 5,000 miles or every 6 months, whichever comes first. Some of the tools needed for an oil change are a oil filter wrench, 5/8 inch socket, ratchet, drain pan and funnel.

The 2000 Ford F-150 has many engine options available. All of them the 4.2L V6, 4.6L V8, 5.4L V8 (engine code 3), 5.4L V8 (engine code L), 5.4L V8 (engine code M), and 5.4L V8 (engine code Z) engine options uses 6 quarts of 5W20 synthetic oil per a recent service bulletin. Prior to the service bulletin, all but the 5.4L V8 (engine code M), required 5W30 oil.
