Quick answer: the 2017–2022 Ford Super Duty 6.7L Power Stroke diesel takes 13.0 qt (12.3 L) of SAE 10W-30 diesel oil (WSS-M2C171-F1) with a filter change. The 6.2L V8 and the 6.8L V10 take 7.0 qt (6.6 L), and the 7.3L V8 (2020–2022) takes 8.0 qt (7.6 L) of SAE 5W-30.
| Engine | Oil capacity (with filter) | Oil type | Ford specification |
|---|---|---|---|
| 6.2L V8 gas | 7.0 qt (6.6 L) | 5W-20 (2015), 5W-30 (2016–2022) | WSS-M2C945-A / WSS-M2C946-A, later -B1 and WSS-M2C961-A1 |
| 6.8L V10 gas (2015–2019) | 7.0 qt (6.6 L) | 5W-20 (5W-30 optional) | WSS-M2C945-A / -B1 |
| 7.3L V8 gas (2020–2022) | 8.0 qt (7.6 L) | 5W-30 | WSS-M2C946-B1 (2020), WSS-M2C961-A1 (2021–2022) |
| 6.7L Power Stroke V8 diesel (2017–2022) | 13.0 qt (12.3 L) | 10W-30 (15W-40, 5W-40, 0W-40 allowed) | WSS-M2C171-F1 |
The diesel takes almost twice the oil of the gas engines. Buy 3 gallons for a Power Stroke change; a 7.0 qt gas engine needs a 5-quart jug plus 2 quarts.

Recommended oil type
6.2L V8: SAE 5W-20 in the 2015 manual; SAE 5W-30 from 2016 (WSS-M2C946-A, then -B1, then WSS-M2C961-A1 from 2021).
6.8L V10: SAE 5W-20 (WSS-M2C945-A/-B1), with 5W-30 listed as an optional oil.
7.3L V8: SAE 5W-30 (WSS-M2C946-B1 in 2020, WSS-M2C961-A1 from 2021).
6.7L Power Stroke diesel: Motorcraft SAE 10W-30 Super Duty Diesel Motor Oil meeting WSS-M2C171-F1 is the recommended oil. The manuals also list SAE 15W-40, 5W-40 and 0W-40 oils meeting WSS-M2C171-F1; choose the grade for the temperature range you expect before the next oil change (Ford recommends 0W-40 or 5W-40 for very cold climates).
The 2015 and 2016 main manuals refer to a separate diesel supplement for the 6.7L figures, so we do not list them here.

See also: Oil life reset by brand.
Ford’s manuals reset the oil life monitor from the information display: use the steering-wheel controls to go to Settings > Vehicle > Oil Life (newer models: Vehicle Maintenance > Oil Life), then press and hold OK until the display confirms the reset. Reset only after an oil change.
Oil change tips
- 6.7L diesel: buy 3 gallons (12 qt) plus one quart, or a 13-quart case.
- 7.3L: a 5-quart jug plus 3 quarts.
- Add a little less than the full capacity, run the engine, wait a few minutes and check the dipstick before topping up.
