I used 30W Ford Super Premium Motor Oil and a Ford FL-1A filter, and I changed the oil and filter, and greased every component myself, including the U-joints every 3,000 miles where necessary. I asked my Uncle who manufactured this oil, and he didn\u2019t know, UNTIL one day, he received a case of oil Labeled as Exon Uniflo, one of the highest rated brands at the time. It was obvious, at least to me, that Ford Super Premium engine oil and Exon Uniflo were one and the same. I sold the car 5 years later with almost 98,000 miles on it, and absolutely no engine problems.
99-03 Ranger with a 3.0, filter above the start and the number of guys I seen set one on fire by arcing the starter with filter pliers is more than 6…
Raise you a 3.0 ford taurus, which dumped all of the dirty oil right onto the starter.
1995 ford crown Vic, you have to turn the wheels to remove the filter.
Last year i bought a car (Ford Focus) that had been garaged for 4 years.
Changed oil and filter as a precaution.
In my Hybrid, I use the OLM for recommended changes, except for the initial break-in oil/filter change. I did that one at 4k, which was about 2k of gasoline engine miles. OEM filter was tiny and I wanted to get it replaced.
Ford Oil filter is less than 50 AED. No clue what's the difference between the one branded as FORD vs MOTORCRAFT, but hey - you can even get a sport oil filter from K&N for around 60 AED... damn marketing.
I double gasketed some dude\u2019s oil filter on his Crown Vic and got to enjoy the new experience of swinging an engine into that car for free
OEM ford filter will be better then you will get at most oil changes spots and the same if you pay the dealership
I was having the same noise on cold startup with an aftermarket filter and switched back to the fomoco filter and it went away. Something to do with a drain valve in the filter. The ford one is silicone and some of the aftermarket ones arent and it can cause problems.
