Ford Full Synthetic 5-W30 is the best oil for this engine period. It's good for 18 months / 10,000 miles. The quart bottle are available at any Ford dealer and pour directly into the engine. Install the Fumoto drain plug with the valve in it and drain directly into gallon jugs with no oil catch pan needed. You can also buy a kit to drain the oil filter into tube and into a jug as well. Check for the gasket on the old filter. Fill the new filter with oil and install. Write down the milage and date. You're done. Check the moisture level in the brake fluid. Flush if it is too high.
Thanks !!! good job !!
Thanks for your excellent review. Just bought a new Coach House on the E450 chassis.
Enjoy it!
Hi Izzy and MJ! The adjustable Garage Boss oil pan removes the need to have to clean oil off the frame from the drain plug and oil filter. Also, a Fumoto oil drain valve with the hose extension can also help. And, creating a hole in the bottom of the oil filter with a screwdriver drains the oil out so it's less of a mess when changing the oil filter. Hopefully a couple of useful techniques for your readers.
Thanks for the tips
You make it look so easy, So I guess I need to crawl under our v10 and getter done. Thanks for the motivation. ~Aron & Lori
You can do it for sure!! Thanks for watching
Thx Izzy! I watched and completed the oil change on my Canyon Star even at 62 years of age.
Awesome. Pretty easy right?
Izzy
Just did this to mine yesterday...Your video was a big help! Appreciate you brother! Up in the Colorado mountains this weekend....50 mph crosswinds...thankful for the safetplus. I bet liquidspring is a dream come true!
Glad the video helped and yes LS would help you tremendously in the wind.
Due to the positioning of the oil in tack pipe,ge making the use of funnels impossible, I suggest purchasing an inexpensive, battery operated siphon pump. Just a thought. I do delight in your presentation, no wasted time or baloney. Thank You.
Mr. Izzy doing the instinctive "I" stance at the start of the video lol! Seriously, changing the oil in mine today and watching this helped brother. Appreciate you guys.
Thanks Marco. Glad the video helped.

GREAT GREAT GREAT VIDEO! If I may recommend something... You should re-title it "Changing Oil on our Class A Motorhome - Step by Step Instructions" I think that title will help with SEO... Also you want to Time Stamps each part in the description... at in Step 1 @ 4:30 Step 2 @ 5:43 Step 3 @ 6:11 and so on... Keep up the great work!
Excellent advise and thank you for the feedback. We are very new to the CZcams thing (less than 2 months). May I ask how you found the video?

I saw you accessories videos and then I checked out your chnnel
Matt I watch your videos also (I’m a channel subscriber.) Please bring us some DP Entegras, Newmars and Tiffins.
Endless RVing awesome 😎 thanks for being apart of the RV Review Crew! And yes I will have videos on all those other brands very soon
I wonder if this will be a similar procedure for our Van. Great demo and explication.

If its a ford V-10 6.8 liter yes. Thanks again guys for the support!!
Thanks Izzy I’m headed to Pep Boys (in So Calif.) this morning.
Michael Woods yep they will have everything you need!!
Izzy
Thank you to you two! Another great video! Wow....the last several videos of your channel that I've watched don't have any thumbs down!! That is incredible. Bruce Springsteen and Bon Jovi can't even say that!!
Oh we get our share of thumbs down. Wouldn't be CZcams if we didn't! - MJ
Just a tip: tap a small hole into the oil filter….will be next to no mess 😎
Hello there! Thanks for the video! the Mobil oil filter is $9.97 at Walmart!!
Is there a maintenance service light that comes on inside? And if so how do you reset it after changing the oil? Cant seem to find anything on it.
We do not have a service light on our motorhome
Thanks
Helpful, thanks
Glad the video helped.
Here is another idea that might be something to consider "Flo Tool Extender Drain Pan" czcams.com/video/oA6iGFxOP2M/video.html Haven't bought it but it looks promising
Why didn’t you loosen your oil fill cap before draining your oil ? The oil will drain faster if you remove your oil filler cap ...I have changed my oil my Ford Triton V-10 many times I find that Walmart has the best prices on oil and oil filters then Pep Boys.
Richard Slider never loosened the oil cap filter didn’t know that would help although the oil comes out pretty quick.
Thanks for watching and the comment.

Keep in mind Amazon “Synthetic” oil is not synthetic. It is distributed by Warren Distributers and is named Supertech Dexos. It is a type 2 oil that is highly refined and hydro cracked to perform better and is LEGALLY allowed to call itself a synthetic oil. Many oil companies do this but you need to be aware that not all synthetic oil is the same or even a true synthetic base stock. True synthetic oil type 3 and 4 will out perform this oil by a long shot but will be priced higher. I would use a higher grade synthetic in a Motorhome with a gas engine just because I would put the best I could get. But the oil you picked is capable of doing the job, so all is good. Just thought you should know it’s a average at best oil and is lower in quality then you may have been aware.
Thanks for the feedback. Certainly good info.
I just have a little suggestion maybe cleaning the RV.
Lol it was dirty for the video. We wash every 2 weeks, but we live in a wooded area and it gets dirty fast. We will be making a video DIY how to wash coach in 1 hour. You won’t want to miss that video.
I have a 2021 baystar sport with the 7.3 v8. How do you clear the oil change indicator? Thank you.
we have the v10. I assume the manual will have that information
Curious - did you figure out how to reset the mileage for the next oil change? I tried what the F53 Chassis manual said, and it did not do anything.
Never reset. Light has not come on if it does I guess I will have to figure it out or erase with obdii scan tool I have.
Izzy
@@EndlessRVing Thx - F53 chassis must not have this, so will just rely on recorded mileage.
How often do you have to change the oil?
Manual says every 7500 I do every 5,000. I’m actually going to be doing my 10k change this week.
can't you just go to a Ford dealership for this? Or any private garage that I'm certain would be cheaper than a "rv" service center....? I'm asking because as a future single female rv'er, I'm not sure yet if I wanna deal with this.
Sure you can go anywhere! We choose to do it this way because it saves us a good deal of $ and we can do it ourselves. :) - MJ
Just had my oil changed at a Ford Dealer in CA and yes, it was $250. Since this was our first oil change, I decided to have Ford do it as well as some other routine inspections. After watching this video, the next oil change will be all me!!
We have been trying to find a Ford dealer they can fit our nearly 40 foot camper in their parking lot in order to do the oil change. We’ve been unsuccessful. So I will be doing this oil change myself at the resort.
