I'm wondering about running Rotella too as I have used it in my Subaru for a while. The turbo guys swear by it because it doesn't break down in the turbo like mobile 1. I can only find it in 5W-40 though.

I got Rotella T6 5w30 from Napa Canada. As far as I know, it’s available in the US too.

Great post. I’ve found adding the fumoto valve (18+ engine) makes the whole process a lot easier.

Walmart.com has available to order.

Also, NAPA may carry it but you have to call local store to verify or have your local store order for you.

@BlazinPond, any chance you (or anyone, for that matter) has the correct link for the Rotella T6 5w30 from Walmart? It looks like your copy/paste was wrong, and you pasted the same link twice.

Do you have a link for the Fumoto valve for the '18+ engines? I have a '19, and would like to replace the valve when I do the first oil change (if they actually make a valve for my drain pan). When I go to the Fomoto website and select Ford for the Make (in the first drop down box), the latest year I can select (in the second drop down box) is 2017...so, if you're saying there's a valve for the 2018+, I don't know how to find it. Am I doing something wrong? Thanks!

Is it compatible with the 18’s with plastic oil pans as well?
