6.4 new oil requirements. VERY important info for 6.4 owners

[mschn99]

Below is some info about a new oil that HAS to be used in the new 6.4L motor. Be very carefull of who changes your oil if you dont take it to a dealer, and what oil you get if you change it yourself. Unless it SPECIFICALLY states it is compatable, DONT use it

The 2008 Ford Super Duty, featuring an all new 6.4L diesel engine, is scheduled to launch January 2007.
This vehicle is equipped with advanced emission control technologies, including diesel particulate filters (DPF), to meet the new emission standards for heavy-duty diesel engines.
To insure proper operation of the emission control equipment, the use of ultra-low sulfur diesel fuel and diesel motor oil meeting the new CJ-4 category is required.
CJ-4 motor oil is formulated for the unique needs of this new engine, including compatibility with the emission control system. The use of oil other than CJ-4 in the 6.4L engine may cause damage to the emissions control equipment.
CJ-4 motor oil is backward compatible and will protect older engines requiring previous category motor oils.
Effective December 1, Motorcraft will launch CJ-4 diesel motor oil in both bulk and packaged goods, in SAE 10W-30 and SAE 15W-40 viscosity grades.
Motorcraft will discontinue selling CI-4 Plus (the previous category) diesel motor oil for these viscosity grades.
Packaged diesel motor oil meeting this new category will display CJ-4 on the front and back labels and on the carton.
