16mm bolt and poke a hole in the bottom of your filter for a no mess filter removal. dump 3 gallons + 1 qt = 13 qt FYI it takes about 5 min for all the oil to go to the pan. great video
I do like the idea of poking a hole in the filter. How would you go about doing this? Sharp punch and a hammer? Wonder if you would still get some oil spilt on you. At least the filter sides would be oil free.
I would not do that as the cons of doing that are far greater vs no mess aka: you bought/recieved the wrong filter size and this may be your only vehicle, someone overtightened the filter and you need to drive and get a special tool, someone did you dirty and jb welded the filter. I know these sound extreme but you never know when extreme things can happen vs saving a small mess (that cardboard would've prevented anyways)
For oil filter tightness used to be something like a quarter turn more after seal is touching I'd recommend looking it up, you can over tighten and for that matter under tighten filters ...nice video though it's a keeper
Great video but how long did you let the truck sit after the first start up and shut off to determine oil was low? All the oil pumped into motor has to have time to drain back down to pan.
Ford claims that the truck has an "intelligent oil life sensor". You be the judge on wether you trust it or not. Typically when I change my oil, I put a label on my windshield when my next oil change is due. I also reset the oil life filter. I never let the oil life monitor pass 7,500 miles. If you can afford it, changing the oil earlier is always better.
Refilling is not necessary and can introduce contaminants from various areas into the ‘clean’ side of the filter. I don’t do it anymore but if you do, do it inside a garage or somewhere that wind won’t blow dust into that part of the filter and use a fresh jug of oil to ensure no dust is going in from on or around it.
made it look nice and easy,,, as I will be doing mine on the ground aswell, I am waiting for my new 2022 F 350 6.7 Powerstroke, ,,,Hey what do you do with your old oil and where do you take it to recycle it,, thanks,,
Nice, I love the screens in the 2022’s. As for where to recycle your oil. My town has a hazmat drop off day once a year where they take used motor oil free of change. So I would first check with your town or county. You can usually find info and contact info on their website. If that doesn’t work, I believe stores that sell motor oil, are required to accept used oil by law. I’ve dropped used oil off at auto zone and Walmart without a problem in the past. Be sure to label the container “used motor oil”. Last last resort option would be to ask a local mechanics shop if they would take it in. Check with your town first.
@@OldSoulMillennial Ok,,,thank you,, this is my first Diesel I will be owning, so want to do things right, also what is the best Oil to use,, is it the Rotella,, I had a buddy of mine years ago swear by that oil he used it in his drag racing car,, I Just want to do things right as repairs on diesels are not cheap,, thanks for the info
@Just stuff and things What brand you use is completely up to you. Regardless of brand, you must use a “diesel” motor oil (different than gas motor oils). If you can afford it, full synthetic oil is best. Pick an oil weight that best matches your normal driving climate. The chart is shown in this video
Autozone and most major parts store will take your used oil for free. Have been doing it for years and only 1 time did I catch the store that their waste used oil was full. Great service that not to many people know about
It’s actually a 19mm bolt ford is all metric. But yeah it almost 3/4 also be very careful installing with that removal tool, only hand tighten filters. You can never over tighten by hand. Overall awesome video great work
You can if you’d like. However, the truck will prime the system automatically so long as you cycle the key as I specified in my video. Personally, I prioritize getting the filter installed on properly over filling it up with diesel and spilling diesel in my face. Oil filter, totally different story. I recommend always pre-filling the oil filter on the 6.7.
@@OldSoulMillennialoh cool - and the gasket doesn’t need fresh oil on it? That was kinda beaten into me when I was little I would imagine things have changed a bit (no longer able to beat the kids and make them work for example)😂
@@devbella5223 I’d say lubricate the gasket with some residual diesel. It may help the gasket seat, but for this, I feel it’s not critical. Again, a twist on filter, lubricate that gasket extremely well.
My truck makes serval noises when it shuts off. The noises mainly consist of electronic valves and actuators cycling. I believe the purpose is to ensure nothing gets seized and perhaps to conduct a quick self check. I would not describe any of those noises as a “priming noise”.
My only suggestion... the guesswork in how much oil out of those 2.5 gal jugs isn't worth the cost savings in my opinion... 3 one-gallon jugs + 1 quart is precise...
Yes, I still use K & N oil filters. I was unable to find shell for about a year (Supply chain issues), so I was using Valvoline Premium Blue Extreme SAE 5W-40 for a while. Just switched back to shell because it's cheaper and available.
@@OldSoulMillennial oil pressure in modern engines really does mostly eliminate the need. It doesn’t hurt, however. I still pre-fill sometimes. I also drive a 6.7, 9 times out of 10 I do not pre-fill lol. Great oil analysis every time. No DEF tank for me. No pig piss thank you 😂
Just watched a engine builder complain, that after a oil and filter change. The oil pump has to pump over a half a gallon of oil, before the mains and cam shaft mains to get oil. I personally know a person that had spun mains on their crank, just outside of the warranty. The oil filter alone holds a quart of oil.
@@RodneyVaal-rq3wy Are you suggesting that engineers designed an engine so bad that it spun bearings because of the low oil pressure immediately after an oil change ? you know that doesn't make any sense, right ? If that were true, the world would be filled with low mileage engines with spun bearings and YT would be full of "experts" advising us not to change our oil too often in order to limit the risk of damaging the engine from all the dry starts. In reality, there are no "dry" starts after an oil change. First, you're never going to drain all the oil, second, engine oil is designed to stick to engine surfaces and that remaining film is more than enough to protect your engine while waiting for the new oil to circulate after it's been changed. Case in point: Mercedes have the oil filter located at the very top of the engine with the inlet at the bottom. It is impossible to prefill them, yet it's not like Mercedes has a reputation for short-lived engines...
Don’t need to tighten the filter more than hand tight. The vacuum created by the engine will suck that tight. The nut on the filter is for removal only
Great job only suggestions I make grab a punch and hammer drive in to the oil filter so oil can drain from filter , and if this truck is under warranty you may want to stick with Motorcraft genuine parts !!
@@billspruce8368 hi I agree 👍 totally like I said stick with ford genuine parts from oil to anything they should honor the warranty but there have been cases where oil samples and off brand filters have voided the warranty its all politics when it come to warranty
I don't mind leaving a little oil film on the filter. Sometimes I'll ansi wipe the oil pan and surrounding frame with a used oil towel. Two Words, Rust Protection. And I thought it would be obvious to check if your filter leaks after replacement.
You don't have to, but its definitely good practice. We see guys that come to the shop having def related problems cause they run it too low in between fill ups.
Watch some videos on def expiring. I now store def inside my house and keep the gauge at 1/4 full. I just got a $10k DPF filter replaced for free under warranty. Not going thru it again.

Why not hand tight?

I'd rather reduce than chance of a dry start by refilling my filters over worrying about a few specs of dust.
15 arts for ‘23 or newer. Go motorcradt oil and filter just make sure not to put oil over top of seal. They don’t leak and not bad batched
Suoer informative. Thank you!
Thank you!
What is the torque spec from the manual for the drain bolt?I want to be sure on how tight to make it.
Sorry Terry, I don't have that info. If anyone else does, please chime in
just normal tight, not muscle man tight
Many many thanks to share your skills 🙏🙏
Any washer that needs to be replaced on drain plug?
I think I missed you putting oil on the filter gasket? 🙂
yes and dont dare use the old oil dripping from filter threads
Did Greta say it is okay to do that?

Prefilling the oil filter is not required as it changes nothing to the life of the engine.

Thanks Joel. I have the fuel filters sitting on my shelf. I will make a video doing the fuel filters at my next oil change. (1,000 miles away)

Ford cannot deny a warranty claim as long as the parts and oil used are proper specification (period). He's fine.
