Thanks for the video, but I do have a question; Ford has concerns with the new CK-4 Oil Specs regarding the "Abrassive Wear" protection properties of the new oil related to the 6.7 Powerstroke. But they support and recommend that owners continue to use the older "CJ-4" instead of the new oil??? Not sure but to me when I look at the chart, CK-4 Oil outperforms the previous CJ-4 on just about every category. I'm confuse...........

The reality is that the use of CK-4 oils do reduce engine life. Rotella was not a low saps CK-4 until 2017 so potential problems are just starting. The facts are that Zn and P destroy cat. converters over time so the EPA has forced the oil companies to reduce those vital anti-wear additives. Any professional engine builder will agree that, because of the reduction in Zn and P the rocker arms, pushrods. lifters, cams, valves, guides etc are wearing out prematurely. The early oil formulation SH, SL, CH, CI-4 and CJ had significantly more Zn and P. Petro Canada, Mobil and Lucas have legacy formulation of CI, CH, and CJ to address the issue.

Compare the cost of oil changes on a cost-per-mile basis (instead of cost of product), and you'll find the AMSOIL oil change to be much less expensive (if you run it to the full extended-drain potential).

API CK-4 is a totally different spec than FA-4, they cannot be lumped together, referred to interchangeably or as a unified spec. Shell Rotella T4, and T5 meets API CK-4 spec oil is approved by Ford for use in Ford diesel engines and is licensed by Ford to legally carry and display the Ford WSS-M2C171-F1 spec. The official joint announcement will occur December 1st, 2016. The new API PC-11, CK-4 and FA-4 specs become effective December 1st, 2016. I also find the premise interesting since virtually every other diesel engine/vehicle manufacturer has not issued an 11th hour proclamation denouncing the use of API CK-4 spec HDEO. The FA-4 spec acceptance by several major engine manufacturers is still pending. Currently the FA-4 spec does not actually apply to any Ford manufactured engine.

In some ways, I wish Ford would make a statement about the quality of diesel fuel available in the USA. Diesel engines function best with a fuel cetane rating of 50 or higher, yet most fuel sold here is at least 5 points lower. Low cetane causes diesel fuel to ignite too late, which affects the combustion timing of the engine, and robs the owner of power. This is why cetane fuel additives are so popular, and the good ones actually make a difference!

Dakota Dale If you use a CK-4 oil that also meets the new Ford diesel oil specification, you will be using the most up-to-date oil for your engine. 6.0 engines are very rough on engine oil, so I always recommend a full-synthetic oil for them. AMSOIL 5W-30 CI-4+ (product code HDD) is current favorite, but AMSOIL will be releasing a new CK-4 5W-30 in February of 2017. The 5W-30 viscosity allows injectors to function at their best, while still providing outstanding protect for engine. www.best-synthetic-oils.com for more info or to contact me directly.

not only is the cetane ratings all over the map but a LOT of places knowingly sell contaminated diesel or diesel cut with other cheaper chemicals (not winter anti-gel or wear reduction etc additives) such as ethanol for eg. where I live (Idaho) we get contaminated diesel so often that I end up changing my fuel filter out every 6 months (7.3 Powerstroke) and often find the elements coated in a varnish like substance (among other things like mold & some gummy gunk) I am currently looking at having to drop the tank soon to clean the pickup screens (hope i can hold out till spring). Here is an example, I once purchased 3/4 of a tank of diesel at a particular fuel station owned & operated by a department store chain, only to have it leave me stranded 30 miles from home, turned out it was 30% diesel, the rest was a mix of 30% Gasoline 30% Ethanol & 10% water, after draining my tank & getting fresh actual diesel elsewhere I took a sample to the station as proof and complained, what came of it? absolutely nothing other than my ceasing all fuel purchases from them.

Ford has given the spec out publicly to all the oil companies - and now its up to THEM to decide if they want to make an oil that meets the Ford spec. (So I don't think it is Ford trying to corner the oil market). They know that not everyone can get to a dealer for an oil change. Fortunately, there are some dealers that sell oil to private garages - so you should never have a problem getting an oil change.

There are many variables in-play, so the easiest way to determine oil life is to monitor it with oil analysis services; at least until you establish a trend, or pattern for each truck. You would probably get more than 25k on an oil change if your engines are operating efficiently. Also - if you have lawn and landscaping equipment, I invite you to check out AMSOIL's extensive line of small engine oils, zero-turn hydraulic oils, water-resistant grease, and 2-stroke oils that can be mixed at up to 100:1 ratio.
