I pull a vacuum on the fill tube and never get oil going all over the place. Just use a remote to start and stop the vacuum. 1. Turn the vacuum on, take out the drain plug. 2. Turn off vacuum with catch container in place. I use a 5 gallon bucket with a plastic trash bag inside ( makes clean up a snap ). 3. Replace drain plug. Turn vacuum on. 4.Poke a hole in the bottom of the filter with a catch can in place. Turn vacuum off. 5. Grease the chassis. 6. Remove oil filter. Clean the mating surface. 6. Use engraver to mark the filter with mileage, date and oil type. Lube o-ring and partially fill filter and install. 7. Refill oil and check. Start engine, reset oil life. Stop engine and recheck oil level.
Thanks! I did my first oil change today..didn't think I could do it and your video made it easy...next time will be even easier. But I will need a mid summer appointment to get all my aftermarket filters done by you pls.
LOL... Yeah it sucks when you try and try and try and try to get the oil filter on...can't figure out why it won't catch... Only to realize the old rubber is still on. I'm commenting for a friend... :)
I added a Fumoto F106 6.7L oil drain to make it more controllable to drain the oil while I’m on my back. Comes with a 3/8” clear hose that connects to the valve and runs into your oil pan. Better than staining my garage floor and arm with dirty oil.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod shoot I might be the next one to drive across the USA if I need more work done! Do you have a video showing the process for replacing the injector to valve cover grommet? I think I have a slow seep coming from there on either cylinder 1 or 2.
From the 6.9 & 7.3 days I have a tapered punch that I knock a hole in the bottom of the filter after I break it loose. Then the filter can drain and not puke all over you.
@@michaelbenoit248 I wouldn't waste the money on a coolant filter setup. The oil cooler tubes are huge in comparison to newer truck that tend to clog. Just service the coolant. For the cooler, I would also pickup the 4 large o-ring seals and reseal the entire assembly.
Just got a used 6.7 and the hardest thing for me being old and arthritis in hands, is grip to undo bolts n filter. Process seems straight forward. Thank you for teaching old ladies new tricks. I have owned and operated all the way up to 10 speed tractor trailers otr, but always had others do maintenance. Now as about to roam free, pray to do basics as needed on my own. Crazy, Right? Lol. Peace.
on my F250 what i use is a 5 gallon bucket that i buy from walmart. its $2.99 and its MADE IN THE USA. It stands up about 19 inches and i use it to collect the oil. I drive my truck a few miles to get it up to operating temp and I use my dash engine oil display to tell me when its hot enough. I think you get more contaminants and more old oil out when you do this versus cold oil like what you do. I do also make sure I let the truck sit for a good while to cool down so it doesnt make my plastic bucket super soft, but even still its hot enough or warm enough where it will flow out like water and bring the contaminants with it. I really like the height of the 5 gallon bucket. Makes for easy and clean jobs. I have a dedicated bucket for engine oil with a lid and keep it in a garbage bag, inside a cardboard box, and place it back on the shelf the next time. I take it to my county dump or a local business who has an oil heater in their shop, and they accept it for free. It never leaves the 5 gal bucket and never have to pour it in something else. I like my bucket and thats what I wanted to share lol
Something I do sometimes when the filter is going to make a mess is use a sharp center punch and punch a hole in the oil filter before you remove it. Let some of the oil drain out in a small stream before it makes a big mess.
Thank you! I have a 2017 6.7 power stroke I’m going to be doing an oil change for and this seems super straight forward! I’ve done oil changes on gas engines before, and the little tips and tricks you provided were awesome!
Thank you! We just purchased a "new to us" 2015 F250 SuperDuty and I like to do all the maintenance on our vehicles myself since we can't find anyone around anymore who is reliable. I am enjoying all your videos so far. Thank your again as I learn about this new truck and engine. Your instructions are clear and your camera work is clear and well angled!
As I have installed an Amsoil dual remote system my change is slightly modified. Oil quantity increased also. Still love watching and listening to your videos! I do also have the Fumoto drain valve!
Great job. I appreciate the effort you make to ensure the oil filter doesn’t have oil leaking down the side. I’ve had my own 6.7 Ford returned from a dealer oil change, leaking. I hate looking in through the side and seeing the dirty oil on the white filter. Few techs would bother. Does look like the brake clean just about removed the Motorcraft logo though! I use the same exact oil drain pan. Changing oil is strangely satisfying to me.
I installed a fumoto drain valve so you can drain oil and filter into the same pan. The oil pan does drain slower but I have time to let it drain. But great video as per usual.
One thing I do is put the date on my oil filter with a sharpie. I have a 2016 6.7. Love the truck. Awesome engine. I only have 38,000 miles so she only gets a oil change once a year. Keep up the good videos😎
Nice video I wish I had see your video before doing my oil change. I did tight the filter with a socket and a 3/8 ratchet that you put at the bottom of the filter, and I tight it a bit strong I thing, do you thing it is easy to brake the treads on the rod where you screew your filter? I tight it down until the filter dont turn anymore. I feel scare a little bit, I wish the treads are solid. Thanks for your comment so you can help me sleep better :)
Really wish i had seen this video before changing my oil the for its first change. The oil catch pan was large enough but the oil was warm, not hot, came out like a fire-hose. Then the catch bin for what ever reason did not keep up with the oil its one of those you can close up and take to a shop to dump... Last top of the oil filter dripped for 1.5 days... i finally cleaned it after figuring out what the issue was... Oh yeah and the stain in the driveway... yeah its new... but i was able to get lots of it up... still need to do more though... Thanks for the video... i wish i had seen it first... Damn it ARod where were you.... Oh yeah i was watching the mod vids... finally gt to this one... At least i have some new tails and a safe...
Great video and tips. I’ve done hundreds of oil changes, but that diesel engine oil is straight outta La Brea. Anything one can do to avoid spilling it is worth it.
Why can’t all techs be this clean and thorough. Ford dealership I used to take mine to tried to get me to pay for stuff that had already been done. They did not look at the parts, they just looked at a computer screen of when the pickup was last in their shop.
What's the whining sound the 6.7 makes at idle when around 195-200 degrees? Mine used do it all the time until I started putting Rotella T6 5w-40 and Hotshot stiction in it, now it only does it every once in a while. My dad has the exact same truck and his will do it, I have also heard others doing it at the gas station. It comes from the passenger side of the motor. Thanks for all your videos, extremely helpful.
2018 6.7 with what I this is rear main seal or upper oil pan leak from them changing to the silicon.. any why I can tell for sure. love your channel man so much help keep it up.
I use my 2016 F350 for towing my travel trailer and boat and only put on about 3000 miles a year. How often should I be changing the oil and filters? Thanks
I ave noticed the canister does hold waste oil and a lot of guys think they have a faulty filter that won't seal. Good tip with the cleaner and blow gun. I also grease what I believe may be the only fittings on the whole truck, if it's a four wheel drive. The front axle U joints still have Zircs, thank goodness. Can you tell me if the driveshaft splines have a recommended clean and re lube? Could have sworn I read one time that Ford had some kind of special grease recommendation just for that. Thank you for the video's.
Man wish you was my diesel tech. my dealership left my windshield wiper fill open and left my oil cap on my battery drove home and smelt oil through the ac vents somehow it didnt fall. Have 52k on my 2018 6.7 and tow everyday going strong with no issues.
I put a vacuum on my oil fill tube, place the drain pan ( I use a 5 gallon bucket ) under the drain. Take the drain plug out, no oil will come out. Remove the vacuum and let the oil flow.
Have you done any Radius arm bushings when you get one show us how, Hey everyone started with that Tri axle Mobile you do great videos Bro Keep them coming when i have time i get to watch the videos.
What are your thoughts on the Amsoil bypass filter setup bmk 28 on a 21 6.7 Powerstroke? What are the factory oil pressures at idle and 1500rpm. My concern is the 1/2" ID hose with the kit is too small and will reduce flow considerably. Amsoil says the system is designed for 10gpm flow. That seems crazy low. The 6.7 Cummins flows 16-20gpm a 30-45psi. Will the BMK 28 reduce oil volume and or pressure to and from the main filter?
Hello - I did exactly as you did - Drained when it was warm added the 13 quarts and my dipstick reads high no matter if the engine is cold, warm or hot - Should I re-do and drain the oil pan after the truck has sat overnight? would that remove more oil - For some reason I have to much oil after adding the 13 - Thanks
Just got my first diesel it's a 2015 f350 thank you for the video I don't know if I caught what kind of oil you use, was wondering what you recommend. Thank you happy Easter and have an awesome day!!!
@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod nope I'll go with what you recommend you're honesty and integrity are awesome just heard different folks saying use Rotella only. Thank you for your time and wisdom much appreciated!
Think it might need a lower pan soon with that bolt missing, i usually punch a hole in the bottom of the filter, and break it loose ever so gingerly and it never gets on me.
I just drain the oil into one pan, wait for it to stop then slide it over to the filter. I've never had to use 2 pans. Never tug on the plug like that, eventually it could strip. Just snug it.. And never use a wrench to tighten the filter, it should only be used to remove it. Just hand tight.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Here it's all 4x4 be they 2/3/4Fiddies...never seen a RWD one at all, until this video to be honest...as I said...never seen one without a front diff.
I always poke a hole in the bottom of my filters and drain them first then take it off. No mess every time no matter what. Takes a half a seceond. Just a tip if you never heard that one before.
I do that as well on anything that I do. I noticed on my 6.7 that I let the filter sit and drain for quite awhile and it just never seemed to quit. I spun it off a thread to let some air past the seal and it instantly made a mess. This was all while it was hot. I never had that problem with my 7.3.
I’ve never heard of this before but what great idea. I’ll be scooping up one of these before my next oil change! 2014 F-250 6.7 here: fumotousa.com/results.php?make=19&year=2014&model=12669&makeid=FORD&modelid=F-250+6.7L+V8+Diesel+Turbocharged
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod this is the one I used on my 2011 Denali. IIRC u have a Yukon or Tahoe. Saves the mess bigtime. www.amazon.com/EZ-Oil-Drain-Valve-EZ-107RH/dp/B00HTV2NZ8/ref=mp_s_a_1_1?dchild=1&keywords=ez+107&qid=1587296309&sr=8-1
I like cutting the wheels left and squeeze my arm in behind the wheel. That way I don't have to try and barely squeeze in the creeper, especially in those hot trucks where you burn yourself on the trans pan/exhaust!
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARodold school father thought me that as the brake pads start to wear, the fluid level will go down. And to always keep it near the full line.
......so now you do brakes & push the pistons back in & ALL the brake fluid is NOW gonna push out all over the place. Its suppose to go low. If you had a leak you wld have NO brakes
So New Super Duty Diesel 6.7 Owner, getting a 2022 never owned a diesel before, but drive bus for work, but still newbie SO my question is, what is the best brand of Oil and and filters to use, also fuel filters, I have heard Shell Rotella is the best, I want to maintain and look after this vehicle as hopefully this will be my last vehicle,, any information is greatly appreciated,,,thank you and love your vids, very detailed, and easy to follow, just wish I had a hoist lolol,,,,thank you again,,
Rotella is good stuff. Ford will tell you Motorcraft only. I run castrol usually. The correct oil is more important than the brand. Although walmart and amazon oil apparently meets the specs.. I wouldn't use them. Dont put small engine oil in your diesel.
Love the videos. I use a 5 gallon bucket for the oil pan, and an oil drain pan for the filter. Never spill a drop. Punch the old filter to drain for a few before I drop it since I’m diy and in no time crunch. Also, I wipe down the filter housing after I let it drain to get the oil off of it. Also ensures the old gasket didn’t get stuck there to cause a leak when I replace the filter. I saw a video from adept ape saying prefilling the oil filter isn’t necessary, so I don’t do it. Never had a problem. Thoughts on that?
Does ford recommend to change the plastic 1/2 turn drain plugs in the early 6.7’s and current 2.7L and some 5.0L every time? We do at my shop every time because we have seen them leaking when they come back. Makes a mess on the fiber/cloth skid plate. Only use the ford plugs from our local dealer of course. Great video I have about 1,700 miles on my 2020 F350 tremor, first oil change will be soon.
Hell yea, I'm not totally sure. All the ones I've done done have never leaked. I never replace em either. I mean i make to sure to ean the plug well......just my 2cents
Thank you, for the video. That is a lot of brake clean. Haha. I really like what you post. You should make some videos about doing mods to the trucks? As a 6.7 owner, it is nice to know issues your run into and how you go about repairs. My truck is getting up there in mileage 165k. Thank, thank , thank you
1:54 mark freeze screen and tell me this I have a 2016 F350 6.7. That one bolt above the drain plug on the right side has so much soot that appears to be a leak. Im talking about the horizontal bolt not the vertical pan. bolts The vehicle has only 22k mileage wise. Im a tad disappointed . I know trucks leak but at 22k? That cant be normal. Any thoughts or am I being picky. The truck hasnt had any strain its practically a daily driver to and fro work. All changes tho Ive only had 2 or 3 regarding oil and that was done by the dealer. Thoughts? Or am I being picky because this truck is barely broken in mileage wise. Every other area is dry or stain free. Edit: that last part about brakleen and blowing the filter makes me think u work at my dealer because my filter is spotless after thousands of miles besides what I stated above on the housing bolt!!
I’ve been a subscriber for a little while now. I really enjoy your videos. Keep them coming 👍. ? Is there any real difference in changing out a 2002 F250 super duty block heater than say a 05 F550 turbo diesel?
Good video ARod , went on Amazon and bought a valve to go in place of the bolt. Got my 5 gallon jug, small hose to go on the end of valve in to 5 gallon jug turn valve on and wait no more mess in driveway no more wife yelling at stain in driveway. One ? I always fill the filter with to the top is that ok. As always ARod thanks
I start to check the oil around 12 quarts , usually it's full by then, I'm guessing I'm not getting all the old oil out. The specs say 13 but if I do that you got oil above the fill mark on the dipstick. Even after running the truck and priming the filter.
ARod, like your video’s. Notice you didn’t tighten the filter per your comment, but what appeared to be snug tightness. Was it tightened more off camera?
I hate changing the oil on my 6.7 with a plastic oil pan. I always make a huge mess. Even being super deliberate and careful. I'm strongly considering buying a Dorman metal oil pan /new bolts. What say you ARod?
I just changed mine to a Ford pan. Wasn’t too expensive and I did it on my back. Plenty of room. Don’t forget to get new bolts with the new pan. I hated that plastic pan.
Crack filter loose (without leaking). Then punch a hole in bottom. Then remove filter. On a filter much larger than this.. It helps. The sudden weight of a filter can surprise you.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Yeah man. They got the clearance damn tight. It's always a chore to get the threads started holding a heavy ass primed filter. I always prime those old 7.3 filters to the top. The old 24v 5.9s as well.
Bro when you removed the oil filter without getting a drop of oil on your hands I was truly impressed lmao.
Another banger
Ayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyyye boi
I pull a vacuum on the fill tube and never get oil going all over the place. Just use a remote to start and stop the vacuum.
1. Turn the vacuum on, take out the drain plug.
2. Turn off vacuum with catch container in place. I use a 5 gallon bucket with a plastic trash bag inside ( makes clean up a snap ).
3. Replace drain plug. Turn vacuum on.
4.Poke a hole in the bottom of the filter with a catch can in place. Turn vacuum off.
5. Grease the chassis.
6. Remove oil filter. Clean the mating surface.
6. Use engraver to mark the filter with mileage, date and oil type. Lube o-ring and partially fill filter and install.
7. Refill oil and check. Start engine, reset oil life. Stop engine and recheck oil level.

I just did both fuel filters today. It's just as easy as the oil change.
Always make sure the oil filter gaskets stayed attached to the filter. It's easy to miss that and have 2 gaskets stacked up.
Yes that will happen. Happened to me once.

Great attention to detail. I still can't believe you had no oil on you after spinning the filter off.
Geeeeeeeee, 😉
Why doesn’t the oil filter drip as much when cold? I always punch a hole in the bottom of the filter so it doesn’t spill all over the place!
Cuz it's thicker
I reset the 2nd trip metre to keep track of oil miles/hours
Great idea!
Think it might need a lower pan soon with that bolt missing, i usually punch a hole in the bottom of the filter, and break it loose ever so gingerly and it never gets on me.
I just drain the oil into one pan, wait for it to stop then slide it over to the filter. I've never had to use 2 pans. Never tug on the plug like that, eventually it could strip. Just snug it.. And never use a wrench to tighten the filter, it should only be used to remove it. Just hand tight.
WHOA! Rare bird...RWD only Superduty! All we see in my shop is 4x4s! No front diff is strange to see!
😉😁😅 yepp lotta 4 fitties like that
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Here it's all 4x4 be they 2/3/4Fiddies...never seen a RWD one at all, until this video to be honest...as I said...never seen one without a front diff.
Tooo funny
I always poke a hole in the bottom of my filters and drain them first then take it off. No mess every time no matter what. Takes a half a seceond. Just a tip if you never heard that one before.
Yea, i not doin dat 🤷♂️
I do that as well on anything that I do. I noticed on my 6.7 that I let the filter sit and drain for quite awhile and it just never seemed to quit. I spun it off a thread to let some air past the seal and it instantly made a mess. This was all while it was hot. I never had that problem with my 7.3.
For the guys doing this at home on their own trucks, for $25 a Fumoto drain valve is worth every penny. Necessity on many vehicles.
I’ve never heard of this before but what great idea. I’ll be scooping up one of these before my next oil change! 2014 F-250 6.7 here: fumotousa.com/results.php?make=19&year=2014&model=12669&makeid=FORD&modelid=F-250+6.7L+V8+Diesel+Turbocharged
Shit now i need 2 pick some up!
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod this is the one I used on my 2011 Denali. IIRC u have a Yukon or Tahoe. Saves the mess bigtime.

Yep I use them on every vehicle I’ve owned there the best🤙🏻👍👍👍✌🏻
Total qts would be 13.5?
I like cutting the wheels left and squeeze my arm in behind the wheel. That way I don't have to try and barely squeeze in the creeper, especially in those hot trucks where you burn yourself on the trans pan/exhaust!
Nice!!!
Great video, only thing I would add is checking brake fluid and topping off as needed.
Checking, why would you be topping...brake fluid should NEVER be topped off unless the system is open.
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARodold school father thought me that as the brake pads start to wear, the fluid level will go down. And to always keep it near the full line.
......so now you do brakes & push the pistons back in & ALL the brake fluid is NOW gonna push out all over the place. Its suppose to go low. If you had a leak you wld have NO brakes
So New Super Duty Diesel 6.7 Owner, getting a 2022 never owned a diesel before, but drive bus for work, but still newbie SO my question is, what is the best brand of Oil and and filters to use, also fuel filters, I have heard Shell Rotella is the best, I want to maintain and look after this vehicle as hopefully this will be my last vehicle,, any information is greatly appreciated,,,thank you and love your vids, very detailed, and easy to follow, just wish I had a hoist lolol,,,,thank you again,,
Rotella is good stuff. Ford will tell you Motorcraft only.
I run castrol usually.
The correct oil is more important than the brand. Although walmart and amazon oil apparently meets the specs.. I wouldn't use them. Dont put small engine oil in your diesel.
For the oil filter I use a punch to drain the oil.
Thomas Burke yeah me to ,I use an railroad spike👍
@powerstroke tech talk what do you spray battery terminals with?
Black spray paint
I need your help before I get ripped off need to ask you a question
I have an email listed....
Good video. I have a 2000 7.3 with 145,000 miles. I wish my filter was that easy to get to. Keepm coming.
Lolololol
How many quarts 14 total one on the filter and the other 13 on the motor?
13 straight up
Love the videos. I use a 5 gallon bucket for the oil pan, and an oil drain pan for the filter. Never spill a drop. Punch the old filter to drain for a few before I drop it since I’m diy and in no time crunch. Also, I wipe down the filter housing after I let it drain to get the oil off of it. Also ensures the old gasket didn’t get stuck there to cause a leak when I replace the filter. I saw a video from adept ape saying prefilling the oil filter isn’t necessary, so I don’t do it. Never had a problem. Thoughts on that?
......would you replace both your fuel filters, then start the truck and drive away without priming the system......🤔🤔
Good food for thought.....
Just sayin...
Back to the basics
I like it Arod
Thanks buddy!!!!! 😉😁
Does ford recommend to change the plastic 1/2 turn drain plugs in the early 6.7’s and current 2.7L and some 5.0L every time? We do at my shop every time because we have seen them leaking when they come back. Makes a mess on the fiber/cloth skid plate. Only use the ford plugs from our local dealer of course. Great video I have about 1,700 miles on my 2020 F350 tremor, first oil change will be soon.
Hell yea, I'm not totally sure. All the ones I've done done have never leaked. I never replace em either. I mean i make to sure to ean the plug well......just my 2cents
We change them every time as well, get them from our local dealer. I know Dorman makes one but I don’t trust it.
Daddi comin bak🙌🙌🙌
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod blast from the past…Pluto baby
Thank you, for the video. That is a lot of brake clean. Haha. I really like what you post. You should make some videos about doing mods to the trucks? As a 6.7 owner, it is nice to know issues your run into and how you go about repairs. My truck is getting up there in mileage 165k. Thank, thank , thank you
@powerstroke tech talk what do you spray your battery terminals with?
Black spray paint
Very knowledgeable input thank you 🙏
1:54 mark freeze screen and tell me this I have a 2016 F350 6.7. That one bolt above the drain plug on the right side has so much soot that appears to be a leak. Im talking about the horizontal bolt not the vertical pan. bolts The vehicle has only 22k mileage wise. Im a tad disappointed . I know trucks leak but at 22k? That cant be normal. Any thoughts or am I being picky. The truck hasnt had any strain its practically a daily driver to and fro work. All changes tho Ive only had 2 or 3 regarding oil and that was done by the dealer. Thoughts? Or am I being picky because this truck is barely broken in mileage wise. Every other area is dry or stain free.
Edit: that last part about brakleen and blowing the filter makes me think u work at my dealer because my filter is spotless after thousands of miles besides what I stated above on the housing bolt!!
Sry pal
Hot 5w-40 rotella t6 flows like water. There’s no going faster than what it can drop out of the engine.
@powerstroke tech talk is it better to drain oil when warm or cold?
Our fleet uses 15w-40 here in the NW should we be using something else
10w30 or 5w40 bub
Good Job!
On another topic, P132B, what can you tell me about this?
Thats its probably gonna b turbo time....
I’ve been a subscriber for a little while now. I really enjoy your videos. Keep them coming 👍. ? Is there any real difference in changing out a 2002 F250 super duty block heater than say a 05 F550 turbo diesel?
Is same concept just different location
On 6.7l diesel why would you have to prime the oil filter? I never have on any of my powerstrokes going back to the 7.3 and 6.0l. Thanks in advance
Coffee can filters ALWAYZ get pre filled...fuel/oil etc..
Good video ARod , went on Amazon and bought a valve to go in place of the bolt. Got my 5 gallon jug, small hose to go on the end of valve in to 5 gallon jug turn valve on and wait no more mess in driveway no more wife yelling at stain in driveway. One ? I always fill the filter with to the top is that ok. As always ARod thanks
Yepp yepp!!!
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod forgot to ask any chance could I get any of those oil stickers thanks
Yeah bud email me a reminder 👍👍👍
All I can say is Fumoto valve. Change my oil changing experience
These engines need shorter intervals between oil changes. Why? Because no tang bearings would keep me up at night.
I like to write the mileage and date of change on my new oil filter
Love it. Now all you need to do is show an instructional video for owner how to clean console. 😂
Good video. I like your attention to detail. Not many people take pride in their work anymore
I do with every job! IT IS A MUST or go home....😉✌🤝👍
Hey where i can buy that green spray bottle you have!!?!?!
Look up sure shot cans. Im sure you'll find it. You' need brake cleaner in bulk tho. Needs to be re-filled....
Many people and mechanics dont know the door sticker exists.
Use the correct tires and pressure per the oem and tires will last a long time.
When would be the time you would take the lower oil pan down and replace the silicone gasket? I’ve got a 2015 6.7 with a little over 225k
Only if its a leakin!👍
Thanks man
How is shell rotella 5-40 full synthetic?
whats that spritz bottle you used to clean the oil residue. Sure would like a link to order one.
They are called sure shot cans. Im sure theyre on the net. Ull need to buy bulk brake clean in order to use.....
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod good to know.
13 quarts, dang! To think I thought 6 was alot for the little 2 liter turbo in my VW...
13 quarts is nothing! My 6.0 L powerstroke with a amsoil oil bypass filter takes 17 quarts!
I start to check the oil around 12 quarts , usually it's full by then, I'm guessing I'm not getting all the old oil out. The specs say 13 but if I do that you got oil above the fill mark on the dipstick. Even after running the truck and priming the filter.
ARod, like your video’s. Notice you didn’t tighten the filter per your comment, but what appeared to be snug tightness. Was it tightened more off camera?
Yes it was in fact!!!
Thanks for stoppin by 😉
Video's are great , never put any time lapse with horrible computer generated noise/music and its all good man.
Great video, can you do another when the truck is warm? Also do you recommend having the oil cap off to speed up oil drain? Thanks.
Cap doesnt matter
In depth. Great video
Thank u so much
so you don't check the oil after filling and start up ?
No, 13 qts is 13 qts.....
Anything you can do to keep your truck from having the "typewriter" noise after an oil change?
No
Can you do this outside with slight breeze next time? For immersion 😆
I can smell that brake cleaner🤪
Sure no problem....comin up with gail force winds
I hate changing the oil on my 6.7 with a plastic oil pan. I always make a huge mess. Even being super deliberate and careful. I'm strongly considering buying a Dorman metal oil pan /new bolts. What say you ARod?
Get the Ford metal pan!!!!
Check pricing, you might find Ford cheaper. I did a 2.7 eco boost plastic pan. Like 1/2 of what dorman was at wholesale at O reillys
I just changed mine to a Ford pan. Wasn’t too expensive and I did it on my back. Plenty of room. Don’t forget to get new bolts with the new pan. I hated that plastic pan.
Yepp many doo
SPE has a kit with all FoMoCo parts
Another great video! Always look forward to Friday evenings. :-) It would be cool to hear your thoughts on tuning sometime on these 6.7s.
Email me!
I noticed that the dash said exhaust filter 40%. Is there a way to tell how full the exhaust filter is on a ‘16 F350 Lariat?
You need to watch this!!!! Yes the built Ford tough one has it too!!

Crack filter loose (without leaking). Then punch a hole in bottom. Then remove filter. On a filter much larger than this.. It helps. The sudden weight of a filter can surprise you.
🤷♂️
Hand strength and a rag 😂 7.3 filters are always fun when they come off. Holds 2 quarts.
That 7.3 sidwayz filter lean
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Yeah man. They got the clearance damn tight. It's always a chore to get the threads started holding a heavy ass primed filter. I always prime those old 7.3 filters to the top. The old 24v 5.9s as well.
Open the full cap , it helps vent the drainage
I dont think so tim....
