Capacity by engine option

Oil change interval

Normal Duty: For most driving conditions, Ford recommends changing the engine oil and filter every 7,500 to 10,000 miles or every 6 to 12 months, whichever comes first. Always refer to your owner's manual and your vehicle's Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor (IOLM) system for the most accurate guidance.

Severe Duty: If your 2019 F-350 Super Duty is subjected to severe conditions, such as frequent towing/hauling, extensive idling, extreme temperatures, or dusty environments, it's advisable to shorten the oil change interval to every 5,000 miles or 6 months.

Drain plug torque

• 6.2L V8 Gasoline Engine: 19 ft-lbs (25 Nm)
• 6.7L Power Stroke V8 Diesel Engine: 22 ft-lbs (30 Nm)

Always use a new drain plug crush washer with each oil change to ensure a proper seal and prevent leaks. For the 6.2L, typically a metal or composite washer is used, while the 6.7L often uses an O-ring style seal.

How to change the oil

1. Warm up the engine: Drive the truck for a few minutes to bring the oil to operating temperature, allowing it to drain more easily.
2. Lift and secure: Park on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and safely lift the front of the truck using a jack and jack stands.
3. Drain the oil: Place a suitable drain pan under the drain plug. Remove the drain plug and allow all the old oil to drain completely. Inspect the drain plug and replace the crush washer.
4. Replace the filter: Locate the oil filter. For the 6.2L, it's typically a spin-on filter. For the 6.7L, it's a cartridge-style filter located on top of the engine near the front. Remove the old filter (be prepared for some oil spillage) and install the new filter, ensuring the O-ring (if applicable) is properly seated and lightly lubricated with new oil.
5. Reinstall drain plug: Once the oil has finished draining, reinstall the drain plug and torque it to the specified value.
6. Refill with new oil: Carefully lower the vehicle. Add the recommended amount and type of new engine oil. Start with a bit less than the full capacity, then check the dipstick.
7. Check oil level: Start the engine and let it run for a minute to circulate the new oil. Shut off the engine, wait a few minutes for the oil to settle, and then check the dipstick again. Top off as needed.
8. Reset oil life monitor: Consult your owner's manual for specific instructions on how to reset the oil life monitor on your F-350.

Common issues / tips

• 6.7L Power Stroke Diesel Fuel Filter Changes: Remember that the 6.7L Power Stroke also requires regular fuel filter changes (typically every 22,500 miles or 36,000 km) in addition to oil changes. These are critical for the longevity of the high-pressure fuel system.
• Diesel Exhaust Fluid (DEF): For the 6.7L Power Stroke, ensure your DEF tank is adequately filled. Low DEF can derate engine power.
• Fluid Contamination for Diesels: Pay close attention to the appearance of drained diesel oil. While diesel oil gets dark quickly, excessive sheen or strong fuel smell can indicate issues and should be investigated.
• Aftermarket Filter Quality: While many aftermarket oil filters are excellent, ensure you choose reputable brands that meet or exceed OEM specifications to protect your engine.
