    at 12:19 good point! I had a 01 ranger and the old filter seal stuck on the engine and I didn't notice, started the truck and oil poured out all over my garage floor. now I always check to make sure the seal is still on my old oil filter after I take the filter off.

    Check the oil level with the car on level ground to get a true reading.

    Thanks. Read your manual, check oil after engine has been sitting after a minimum of 15 minutes it states. Also drain time is 15 minutes but suggested 30 minutes. Takes time to drain. Plus Ford adds 1 additional quart of break in oil, so you lost one quart in 3,000 miles, which is normal. Send a oil sample to Blackstone Laboratories after 3rd oil change. Spend the extra $10 for TBN and TAN analysis. You will be shocked how much oil life you had left in that baby at 3,000 miles. I used to change my oil every 3,000 miles and would change new vehicle oil after approximately 500 miles. Not today, the oils are superior to what was available 20 years ago. If the engine is running perfectly you could stretch oil change interval to 5,000 miles easily and do no harm to the engine. At 5,000 miles you still have 50% TBN left on clock, which neutralizes acid. Today, I use the oil wear monitor and change at 6,500 miles on my 2.7L F-150. My wife just purchased 2021 Ranger, only has 500 miles on clock. Nice video. Peace

    At the 11 minute mark he is comparing the weight of a used filter ,saturated with oil ,with that of a new filter with no oil in it .
    And I agree with Steven , I gave this a thumbs up . Even though he made several mistakes ,at least he tried to pass along useful info .

      If you listen carefully... Used to used.... I have changed 100's of Motorcraft fl910.... The FoMoCo filters that come on the engine from factory feel heavier than a used motorcraft fl910... But i do need to think... Before i say stuff... Lol.. Thanks for watching and for the thumbs up!

    its a lot easier to change the filter if you crank the wheels all the way to the right, also, you only have to remove the push pins from the lowest rear most part of the fender flap. The oil filter from the factory feels heavier as it's inside is saturated with engine oil

    To properly check the oil level, you should have waited at least 5 minutes after the engine has been stopped before checking the oil level. Also, prior to prying off the wheel opening molding rivets, you should have used a screw driver to unscrew the plastic screw unless you don't want to reuse them. Those rivets cost about $4 each.

    PSA if you're doing the first oil change on a brand new car... That filter will 99% of the time be both dry gasketted, and way over tightened. Don't do that when you put the new filter on. Always lube the new gasket, and just give it a good tighten. When the car runs for 3k or however many miles, it will get a lot tighter. You don't want to have to shove a screwdriver through it to get it off...

      Once the glass company cuts the glass out the shop needs to prep the surface on the windshield frame opening and then put primer in that area and then the glass company reseals the windshield into the windshield opening frame to reseal. The recall is for some builds with windshields that may come loose because of poor adhesion. Actually just did one yesterday on a Ranger.

    I tried using 3,000 lb (1.5 ton) rated rhino ramps last week, they slipped all over the place cause my truck is too heavy for them... so I bought 3 ton hydraulic jack stands. Also, you seemed to have a buddy telling you how far to go on those rhino ramps.. no real way to know if you've gone far enough without some guy watching.. really annoys me about the ramp things. :/
    Edit: 4:00 15 mm bolts underneath for the guard (for FX models) and oil drain plug? :O
    Side guards use screws, you twist it counter clockwise and they pop off super easy o.o I wonder if a stubby or long handle is better.. going to find out soon! :D

      No, you need to slide out the skid plate to get better access to the drain plug And so the oil will drain down and not all over the skid plate underneath making a huge mess to clean up off the inside of the skid plate, which you will now have to remove, to clean up all the oil that fell inside it...

      I find that if you use a torque wrench and if it's not 100 percent dialed in, you can really mess things up. I snapped a bolt on housing for my mass airflow sensor because I followed the torque specs. I never followed them again since that time because you never know the accuracy of your torque wrench and if it is off even 5 percent , you're kind of fucked. So on the sensitive parts which you REALLY can't afford to strip, I'd go by FEEL rather than specs. Just my personal preference after 41 years of doing my own oil changes. Those who know the "feel" will beat any torque wrench to hell. I only use the torque wrenches on lug nuts and "rough" things like that and even then I back off a few ft lbs, never had a problem.

      I work at a Ford/Chrysler dealer here in northern Wisconsin and from what I see from the 4 cylinder ecoboost engine they are pretty reliable. From the 1.5L to the 2.3L ecoboost 4 cylinders they seem to not have to many problems. The Ford fusion is one of the most reliable vehicle out there with the ecoboost engines. I think it mostly depends on how you take care of the vehicle too. Being a turbo engine I would change oil at 5000 mile mark. But time will tell to see what the 2.3 liter ecoboost will do. I plan i keeping mine for the next 10 years.. And in that time i should have around 150k to 200k on it. But if the ranger comes out with a 2.7L v6 ecoboost..... I might trade up into that... Lol

      Ford will give you the cheap way to keep the perceived cost of ownership down. Truth is this is a very high tech power train. Synthetic oil is better a better lubricant than conventional oil. Flows better, keeps engine cooler. Cheap insurance over the long term if you want to go way beyond the warranty period.

    • @zacharymurdock6721
      @zacharymurdock6721 Před 3 lety +2

      Yes they clearly do. In the owners manual of any Ranger it recommends using oil that meets Ford Spec: WSS-M2C946-B1. The dealerships and some shops around me (including the shop I work at) don’t stock or carry conventional oil anymore. Requiring, or recommending synthetic (or synthetic blend) oil is why oil change intervals have increased to 7500-15000 miles for newer cars in recent years. Yeah sure, you can try to go that far on “regular” oil but you might be needing a new engine 😂 🤦🏼‍♂️ 👍🏻 👨🏼‍🔧
