The Ford is a flat tappet engine, 5.4L Triton, the same basic engine design of our Rover engines, a standard V8, 2 valves single cam engine.
I have experimented with the oil in it.
5w-30, 2-3 quarts per week.
10w-30, 2-2.5 quarts per week.
10w-40, 1-1.5 quarts per week.
15w-40, 1-2 quarts every 5,000 miles.
All of these were done using 5,000 mile oil changes with me being the only person driving the van.
