What type of oil for 2500 dodge engine?

The type of oil for a 2000 Dodge engine depends entirely on the *specific* engine. Dodge made several different engines in 2000 for various models (cars, trucks, minivans). You need to know the exact engine code (often found on a sticker under the hood or in your owner's manual) to determine the correct oil type and weight.

Once you have the engine code, you can:

* Consult your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source. It will specify the recommended oil type (conventional, synthetic blend, or full synthetic) and viscosity (e.g., 5W-30, 10W-40).

* Use an online lookup tool: Many websites allow you to enter your vehicle's year, make, model, and engine code to find the recommended oil. However, always double-check with your owner's manual.

Do not guess. Using the wrong oil can seriously damage your engine.
