• The oil reservoir for the high pressure oil
pump is located under the oil cooler in the
valley of the engine.
• The oil reservoir holds about 1qt of oil.
• A screen in the oil reservoir catches any
large debris that may be in the oil before it
gets to the high pressure oil pump.
• The 6.0L POWER STROKE uses a cartridge
style oil filter, located on the top of the
engine.
• When the oil filter is removed, the oil filter
housing drain valve is automatically opened
to drain most of the oil from the housing.
• The oil filter element snaps into the oil filter
lid.
• Note: The oil filter lid should be removed
before draining the oil from the oil pan so
that the oil can drain from the filter
housing into the oil pan.
• The oil filter base routes oil to the oil filter,
engine oil pressure switch (EOP), engine oil
temperature sensor (EOT), and the
turbocharger oil feed.
• The oil filter base also houses the anti-drain-
back check valve that keeps oil in the oil
filter assembly after the engine is shut off.
• The oil cooler bypass is in the filter base and
opens at a pressure differential of 25 psi.
• The oil filter bypass is in the oil filter stand
pipe and opens at a pressure differential of
20 psi.
• There is an oil drain for the filter housing to
drain oil from the housing during an oil
change.
