In its various models, the 2016 Ford Transit Van is available with a total of six different engines. These include a 1.6L 4-cylinder, a 2.5L 4-cylinder, a 3.2L 5-cylinder diesel, a 3.5L V6, a 3.7L V6, and a 3.7L V6 running on natural gas or propane. The engine options vary in their oil requirements, with the 3.2L 5-cylinder diesel needing 12 quarts of SAE 0W-30 or SAE 0W-40 oil. If using biodiesel, the correct oil is SAE 5W-40 API CJ-4. The other engine variants all require SAE 5W-20 oil: the 1.6L uses 4.3 quarts, the 2.5L uses 5.7 quarts, the 3.5L uses 5.9 quarts, and both the 3.7L engines use 6.0 quarts. With such a range of engine options, it's crucial to be aware of the specific engine type in your vehicle.
