Ford Motor Company now recommends SAE 5W-20 viscosity grade for servicing
most gasoline and flexible fueled vehicles.
ACTION:
All 2001 and 2002 vehicles where SAE 5W-20 is specified should be serviced

improved formulation to improve fuel economy. Testing has validated this
viscosity grade can be used in many previous model year vehicles. It is
recommended ALL vehicles on the following Vehicle Application Listing be
service with SAE 5W-20.
All 2001-2002 vehicles other than those listed in the "Exception 2001
