[goodale]

It's time for the trucks first oil change, i've got the 5.4 gasser. how many quarts do i need? i hate guessing with important stuff like this, my mach 1's dip stick was very difficult to get a reading on, thats why i ask. also does anyone know part numbers for the oil filter of the to of their head? i usually use fram, thanks a bunch ahead of time

I hate to be an #*%, but this stuff is in the manual. I suggest you get cozy with it, its got a lot of good info.

I had an '05 5.4L the oil capacity with filter change was 7 US. qts. I also was a fram user then I was told they aren't that good. Now I use Motorcraft from Wallyworld. IIRC the # is FL820S you can call a stealership for the correct answer.

On the 2000 it is 6 quarts thats what the manual says it usually takes about 6 and a half to full mark on the dipstick but your manual should tell you oil capacity and maybe even filter number.
