I don't think Ford kept records of how many of each model of tractor they built. The 4000 rowcrop was a fairly short-lived model, though - only '66 to '68 if I remember right. It takes 7 quarts of oil with a filter change. Any oil rated for diesel engines should be OK. As far as what weight, it depends on your useage and climate. I run 15w40 year round here in n/w WI.
