Just bought a ford 801 diesel and it has not been serviced since 2008 I need to know what is the best oil to use for this I believe Napa auto parts can get me my oil and fuel filter
 
If it has power steering, change the PS oil and the filter inside the resevoir.

The filter probably hasn't been changed in decades.

yeah I'm sure it has not been changed although the last owner has messed with the power steering because it recently stopped working

Hi Marc ebbert,

We recommend Shell Rotella T Triple Protection 15W-40 (CJ-4) engine oil for this application. Shell Rotella T Triple Protection is formulated with improved soot control and an exclusive detergent system to deliver outstanding piston and engine cleanliness. It is a product that is also recommended by a wide range of OEMS, and is suitable for both low-emissions and older model equipment.
