5w-40 Rotella! Well glad its not in my head. I too switched to this oil around 2009 and thought all my engines were quieter in winter from trucks to tractors. Some more than others. Will definitely keep using it as its got to be a good thing.

So is this stuff ok for the older Ford tractors too?

in general..I don't mind ( usually like ).. to use a C rated oil with an s rating for a gasser.. but it would depend on 'how old' a ford.

for something inthe pre 64 range.. I wouldn't go lower than 10w in normal weather.. for a 3 cyl 65 plus.. baring any abnormal engine issues with low oil pressure. 5w40 should be fine.

that's just my opinion.

most of my old tractors are on a 15w40 c/s rated oil. with a couple on synthetic 10w30 S rated oil, diesel pickups all on 5w40 syn now.
