According to the 2002 Ford Windstar Owner Guide the 3.8 liter V6 engine
takes ( 5W-20 engine oil )
5w30 in the winter 10w30 in the summer.
Can I use 10w30 in ford 2006 Taurus if 5w30 not around
The Ford 460 engine oil to be used is 5W30 or 10W30.
5w30 winter if cold 10w30 summer
summer: 10W30 winter: 5W30
You can use either 10W30 or 5W30 motor oil or if you wish you can put synthetic oils in it too using the same grades 10w30 or 5w30
Dealer Specifications list both 5W30 and 10W30 as acceptable. I would suggest a Synthetic Blend.
5W30 is the preferred oil , but if you live in an area that never gets below the freezing point you can use 10W30
well it calls for 5w30 for my 2000 dohc zetec engine.
Use the oil of your choice. 5w30 for colder climates, and 10w30 for warmer weather.
Summer 10w30. Winter, cold climate 5w30.
10W30 in the engine.
