I've had to do the ole air hammer trick before myself 😄 a couple years back I finally found an oil filter wrench at tractor supply that fit my oil filter. Your ramps, are those the harbor freight ramps? I've been wanting to grab those for a long time now but to me they just don't look like they would elevate my truck that much. What are your thoughts and do they raise your truck enough for your satisfaction? Thanks. Jay. 👍👍
Thanks for watching Jay! Ramps are from O Reilly’s! They’re rated for 12,000 Pounds as pair. Made of plastic so it keeps the transportation weight down also, which is a plus. They most DEFINITELY help me every oil change I use them. Being a bigger guy, my chest cavity can’t fit under my truck. ( Of course it’s lowered 6” total 😆 ) so I have to use the ramps everyday to work on this thing lol
I use Schaeffer's Oil. 15w40 in the summer and 5w40 in the winter.I also have a FS2500 bypass oil filter. I go 10,000 miles between oil changes. The HEUI system shears the oil that's why it's recommended to go 5,000 miles between oil changes on conventional oil.
10,000 miles on diesel is ludicrous. My personal opinion doesn’t matter toward you of course, but I’ll never run 10k oil changes PERIOD. Doesn’t make sense to me.
I also go 10000 miles between oil changes As Mr Harris stated he uses a bypass filter and that reduces soot in the oil which causes sludge in the oil side of the injector. Reduce the soot in the oil and your injection system last longer and your oil changes spread out in milage between changes. I use a twin Franz bypass cause toilet paper is available many places and cheap to replace
Bout to start using regular oil in my 02 7.3 lariat now eff that spending $130 on an iil change doing it yourself. Is crazy. Its in my channel just put a spoologic turbo and up-pipes s&b cold air intake and hi flow hpop.
@@PowerstrokeBoiz definitely can't keep her under 80 now and find myself having to slow down on hills or I speed up on cars on a steep slope. Can't wait to put an edge insight and have a little more power.
I use the exact filter and oil I have a 2000 7.3 F350 with 370000 miles on the speedo. I'm an Ex ford tech and the oil that ford gets is bulk oil. So you as a customer getting service has no idea what oil is going in your engine just like the tech has no idea what oil is in those bulk tanks they pump out car service after car service. As you stated " if you keep up with your service " you can have a good running long lasting car/truck Unless you want to spend the extra money on oil go for the best and it's not sold in local auto parts stores it's at Freightliner and sold in 5 gallon buckets or 30 gallon drums. Then you're looking at 20000 miles till the next oil change.
Thanks for agreeing & sharing your “ First Hand Experience “. Always cool to talk to the inside man, see what the insides really like lol. I tell people all the time. Oil is oil in these HEUI systems. Keep em filled, keep em changed. 200,000+ engine easily
It’s 15 quarts in the pan, 2 quarts in the filter, and 1.5 quarts in the high pressure reservoir. I usually run the truck for 10 minutes then change the oil in the high pressure reservoir again because there’s roughly 3 quarts in the high pressure system.
by placing restrictions and regulations on oil companies killing pipe line projects, costing 11000 union workers their jobs on his first day in office pushing his bullshit green deal and stop the oil shit need any more? fuck joe and the hoe
