In warm weather, these engines run fine on a high quality 15w40. In colder weather, you may get loping at start up with 15w40, so you can run 10w30 DIESEL RATED oil (not standard gas rated 10w30) or 5w40 synthetic. The most current API diesel rating is CJ-4. You won't go wrong with Motorcraft, Mobil, Chevron, or Shell as far as brands, as these oil brands all make oils that work well in this engine. The weight will depend on the temperature and how much you want to spend. 5w40 can be run year around.

I'm confused. I can tell you how to change the tensioner on a 7.3L Powerstroke. The problem is Ford did not make a Powerstroke until 1994. Is your truck a 1992? What is the 8th digit in your VIN Number? If it's an F you have a Powerstroke. Let me know so I can help you with your question.
for a normal oil change just use 15qts

15 quarts
14 quarts is the engine oil capacity
That depends.... Is it a powerstroke. You see my 94 f250 was built in Dec. of 93 but sold as a 94 model, therefore it has the old 7.3 (nonpowerstroke) IDI turbo engine and not the 7.3 powerstroke, which I believe has a different size oil filter.
7.3L powerstroke takes 15L of oil.
Approx 159 Quarts.
I had the oil pan replaced on my 1999 e350 cube van with a 7.3 powerstroke diesel last year. The mechanic had to disconnect the transmission, and raise the engine enough to remove the oil pan.
