A tip I learned the hard way. When you put the small O-ring on, put the new filter on first. This limits any side pressure you may put on the shaft while struggling to get the new small O ring on. I didnt and snapped off the shaft from where it mounts inside the cover. Took a day of driving all over Minnesota to find a dealer that had another one. Good luck all!
Good tip. I was worried that I would snap it. 😅
Thank you for that tip. May Jesus bless you
I use a pair of snap ring pliers ,put the ring on them then squeeze the handles.
Try rolling the small o-ring over a 6mm 1/4’ drive socket then over the tip
Just did the first oil change. No more free at the dealer. Last was about $85. That little socket tip made things much easier with that small o-ring. Total job time about 1 hr. Tks for the tip - came in handy for sure.
Those engineers must’ve been smoking some really good stuff when coming up with the filter and plug.
I can guarantee the engineer who designed that oil plug had his wife step out with a mechanic
After a couple of bad experiences at my dealer in DeLand, Fl. it’s time to start changing my own oil. Great video.
Thanks for the video! Never realized how easy it was to change oil at home. Definitely going to start doing it myself.
Like the details of changing the oil and filter, it gives me the confidence to do it myself, well done…. Thanks for sharing
Gravyyy
Hey it’s the dieseliest EcoBoost there is with the CGI block lol. I know it’s a baby truck, but those 2.7L are fun engines.
Just got a 2019 2.7, fucker rips
Changed mine today. Removed 3 of the air dam 8 mm screws (left the starboard rear one and swing the air dam over to the starboard side out of the way). Replace all 3 oil filter oil rings: used screwdriver to stretch the little one off. Put new small O ring on needle nose pliers and OPENED the pliers to stretch it out, got it right on. Sucked oil out through the dipstick hole with a pump, but....then pulled drain plug and 2-3 qts still gushed out. Probably a bit less gushing/cleaner than letting all 6 qt gush out. Decided i won't be able to just use the Harbor Freight oil pump to pump the oil out. Add full 5 qt jug of Full Synthetic and drove off ramps. Will slowly top off to 6ish qt tomorrow.
Bro what
This is far the best video I've seen on oil change on the 2.7 Ecoboost F-150. Thanks.
5.0 coming soon
I use a piece of single strand coated copper wire to get under those o rings. I bend the end of the wire and work it under the o ring then pull the wire through and pull the o ring up and off. Some people use a plastic dental pic to get the o rings off. Or a metal curved mechanics pic. Also I only remove 3 of those under engine cover bolts. I just loosen the drivers side rear bolt then rotate the cover out of my way. It makes it easier to put it back on. Good video.
Good Video Brother! My 2015 2.7 has 5w20 on filler cap, but I use 5w30 synthetic blend. Also, one thing I have learned over the years is stay with what the MFG says to use in your engine or trans! It is formulated by Mfg for your specific application, period!
Oil filter yes,Mobil 1 synthetic is just as good if not better than Motorcraft
Manufactures don’t formulate oil, they just require a set specification to be met. Motorcraft is a decent oil. However I prefer full synthetics of the proper grade. When it comes to transmission fluid def stick to OEM in these newer vehicles for long service life 👍🏻
Thanks for the video buddy! I'll be doing my 3rd oil change tomorrow on my 2018 2.7 ecoboost, 15K miles, just like the one in the video. I'm an old guy so I like to refresh my memory before doing it again. Getting the right size sockets from the start etc. Since you asked, I use motorcraft filter and 5W-30 oil just as you did. Sometimes it's actually the cheapest oil on the shelf at walmart also. Hopefully an oil change will be the deepest I'll ever have to dive into this truck for the rest of my life. I traded in a F150 5.0 L cause I didn't like how much throttle I had to apply when merging on the interstate and long inclines while pulling about 6K lbs. of camper and cargo. This little engine and 10 speed tranny is sweeeet....hell, I dont even put my hamburger down cause I need to focus on the truck...turn up the tunes, eat a french fry and cruise with confidence! :)
On that small O ring I’ve found a pair of needle nose pliers used in reverse to spread it open works best.
That filter and drain plug design are two really jacked up ideas.
I spent 1 1/2 hours looking for the oil filter!!!! Then I click on this video and it’s been in front of me the whole time!!
Lolololol
The top o ring is perfectly fine I wouldn't bother replacing !
Just did mine and installed the Rhonin oil plug. I'm sure the next oil change will be worth it. Though I gotta say, holding the factory plug in a bit to regulate the flow for a minute or two wasn't bad at all. Very easy.
A guy commented on another video that he uses snap ring pliers to put that mini o-ring on. Will be trying that
The engineer that worked on the sway bar must not have talked with the engineer that worked on the oil pan.
I soak the new filter in fresh oil and also oil up the new O-rings before reassembly. Great video. Thanks.
That plastic oil plug is the most infuriating design. On my Bronco, it shoots oil out to the passenger side tire. To say I made a mess on the first change is an epic understatement.
Damn I thought the 5.7 Iforce Tundra oil change was a pita..this looks like fun🤓
Love the channel, you do great work. Wish there was someone like you where I'm at. Every time my F350 been for recalls or warranty they've trashed other parts when getting to the recalled parts. It's unbelievable. Keep up the good work!
Thanks pal!
Only thing I'd add is to use AMS, Castrol GT or Mobil1 Ex oil to reduce the carbon buildup in the 2015-17 motors.
Buy a Ronin Oil Plug. Allows you to control the oil flow. I used them on all 3 of my 2019 f150's. Great Video!
I hold the drain plug against the hole and control the oil flow. Haven't messed up my new concrete so far.
So glad my 6.7 doesn’t have the sway bar in the way.
That small filter gasket is like the white teflon gasket for ford power steering fitting seals. There was a tool to install them.
Gotta keep the 1st responder responding...
Great job bro
Great video! Thanks for breaking it down. Yes that plastic drain plug and then that design of where the oil dumps out is frustrating. I bought the RONIN drain plug, sooo much better and cleaner to do my oil changes, no splashing anywhere. And as always I’m running AMSOIL Signature Series 100% synthetic! 🫡🤙🏽
I like oil change vids. Always interesting to see how they differ. I can recall how terrible it was to do the oil on my gen 2 5.7 Toyota Sequoia. Had to remove a skid plate that was sort of heavy and awkward. I'd like to know what your worst oil change is/was....? I like to use OEM oils or Mobil 1. In my big diesels I'll use T6 Rotella or Mobil Delvac. I've had good results with both. Key is to change often. I'm not a big believer in keeping oil in there for more than 3,500 miles. Oil is cheap, an engine is not. Thanks for the video pal, hope all is good in D land!
Thanks homie!!!
I wonder how many places don't bother to change the "O" rings?
Thanks for the video. I was able to do mine as I had an idea how to start. I was doing last week but didnt have 27mm soceket and all my other 1/2 socket needed a tad more to fit. I tried other ways to break off but didnt want to damage the oil caseing so I had to wait about 2 days for the socket to arrive. Not too much labor. This filter was black (ran 4100 miles). I just wonder if the dealer ever changed it. Dealer charges about $85 and wait time is about 3-4 hours with an appt. I got this done in about 1 hour. Next time it will be much quicker. Have the tools and sizes needed comes in handy.
Hey ARod.
I know 2.7 EB owners are pissed when we find out that the oil pump is driven by a belt.
I found that the replacement oil pump, Part # FT4Z-6600-1A is a CHAIN driven pump. It even comes with the CHAIN !!
is that a Ford part or aftermarket?
If you like checking your oil level afterwards for peace of mind, don't forget to let it sit at least 15 minutes after starting! I heard a horror story of someone putting 10 quarts in because it wouldn't mark on the dipstick.
you got different problems if you are actually putting 10 quarts of oil in a vehicle that clearly calls for 6 in the manual...
@@meditationstation710 People be doing things like that! Had a jeep a few weeks ago, said they needed a brake job. They ignored it so long a backing plate shot out and killed the caliper.
@@meditationstation710 lol, right? 10 quarts?! Yea, that's crazy
Just did mine on the 2023 2.7 cake work thanks for the vid🤘
You have a big heart, much respect 👍😁❤️
🤝💯
That plug, if you loosen it up and leave it in the pan but pull it out a little, the oil will flow directly down. You have to hold the plug the whole time but it snot as messy for a DIYer.
Should have started the truck, waited for oil pressure to come up , then leak check filter and plug areas before installing cover. Good video....
Nothing but Schaeffer's full synthetic in my 6.7👌
Ford spec's the cartridge housing at 18 ft-lbs.
Take care
Been running rotella t6 5w40 with archoil in my 05 6.0 and have about 150,000 miles on the original injectors. Love dem 6ohsss
Because the shop where I work recycles our used oil, I don't recommend spraying the brake clean into the oil drain pan as it contaminates the oil to the point where we cant get it hauled off!
Excellent video! Good angles and narration. 👍🏼👍🏼
I can’t believe how most mechanic shop and dealership charges 150/200 CAD to do an oil change when you can do it at home in less than 30 minutes by yourself without waiting a few hours getting it done somewhere else
A good way to put that small one on is with those snap ring pliers took me about 2 secs
Thanks for this useful “how to”. Greatly appreciate it! 👍🏻
Thanks!
🫡🫡🫡
Good to know, but for 60 bucks I’ll get my oil changed tires swapped and full inspection, only problem is trusting the people doing the work
Thank you so much for making this video!! You saved my Saturday. Lol
Hey pal, thanks for coming back & keepin' it 💯
oops forgot to change o rings not leaking good to go change them next time. run full synthetic change every five thousand do not trust dealer reccomendations kinda like why the engineers of ford approved of this plastic plugs and and plastic filter cover, great video liked it bunches
Might as well leave that air deflector off after the oil change. One corner broke off of mine after about 15k miles so I just removed it, and can’t even count how many I’ve seen hanging while driving down the road. Didn’t see any difference in fuel economy, and it sure doesn’t offer much in the way of protection.
Got steel plates for mine after the original felt thing fell apart. Believe it or not, my MPG went up on the highway.
I love the 2 videos a week! I didn't know the oil filters for the 2.7 is up above like that. Learn something new everyday! Thanks again man!
3 a week, where u been
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod 3? what is the third?
Podcast. Sundays 9am EST
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod Alright my man. I will try to wake up early, I live on the west coast.
Lolol u can watch it any time
Thanks for the video. I plan I doing this early in the a.m. tomorrow. Have all my parts and tools. I may look up torq specs for filter. I dont want to crack it. How long should I let run to cycle all the new oil thru? I think a minute would be good. Now I have to look up how to reset the oil percentage. 2017 2.7. using original ford oil and filter. have only 38k on this engine -dont put a lot of miles on it. Dealer is about $85 but it takes hours to get it done. I paid $26 less of the $85 just for parts and I do the labor at home which I dont mind.
great video.. straight to the point!
Excellent video!
Just curious but along with the quarter turn drain plug is the oil pan made of plastic?
Great video. Straight forward.
Good video. What other maintenance of F150 would you do at home? i.e., transmission fluid change, etc...
Excellent video, thank you.
Great vid boys. Thanks!
2011 F150 Harley Davidson w/6.2. Used the 5w-20 motorcraft blended oil every 5000 miles. 180,000 on the clock
Just got a 2020 Explorer ST. Just turned over 1000 miles, so haven’t done the first oil change yet, but will go with full synthetic. On a side note, holy shit balls is that Explorer fast!!!
Ohhhhh yea
Good luck 👍 on the oil change
My 04 f250 super duty 6.0 I use the motor craft 10w30 and the ford oil filter always even the fuel filter is motorcraft
I really wish they hadn't put that sway bar in the direct path of the drain plug.
I know riight
Good video. Seems the drain plug is causing me to hesitate about doing this. Maybe my 2021 F 150 might be easier, but probably not. I experimented with no oil change with 100% synthetic. Did ok for 10 + years with my 06 4.6 V8 Crown Vic with 135,000 +. Everytime it was down a quart I would just add a quart and change the filter, which is in essence adding 2 new quarts of 6. The synthetic does not tar up. The CV eventually was totaled but the engine was in good shape I figure.
😮😂😂
😂
Good information,,, thanks.
Great video, thank you!
Very helpful thanks 👍👍
Awesome. Good video
Good video. Thanks!
Great video. Ty for the simple explanation on how to change the oil. Does the O rings come with the oil filter or is that separate? Just so I know to ask and purchase both at the same time.

Thanks for the how to man!
I have a 2018 2.7, I have changed the oil at least 10 times. Removing the lower panel is the hard part. Could you please send over the guy that helped you.
How would you reset the oil monitor?
Thru the cluster
Read the manual, the least amount of drain time is 15 minute but Ford recommends 30 minutes. Peace
A bit of brake clean gets inside the engine when you clean off the plug with it and immediately put that plug back in the engine. I'm sure the small amount of brake clean in the engine wont matter since itll just burn off, but Im pretty paranoid that the brake clean would "degrease" anything it comes into contact with
U have nuthing to worry about
Interesting that it calls for the blended oil. I assumed it was full synthetic
13 chevy spark 5w20 HM syn every 3k. Walmart special oil.
I tossed that fabric "skid plate" right in the trash when I first got my truck
Small O-ring…just push it evenly down until its past the point….then its easy…
Thanks for the lesson. When I was younger I always did my own oil changes but it's be a few years and engines have changed. Albeit a simple thing to complete it is nice to know the new tricks. My truck has over a 100000 km now so I went with a 5/30 Castrol High mileage. My understanding is that it is 50/50 oil and synthetic. It is nice to hear from you that OEM was a mix as well.
1 question though if you could. The winters were I live now hit -60F and a balmy day is -15-20F. If I run an oil pan heater, can I stay at 5/30 or should I go with a 0/30? Thanks again for the lesson, it is a good video.
Both will be juss fine
Can you do an @Home Oil Change for a 7.3L Godzilla next on your channel?
Damn for you I will
Shell pennzoil platinum and motor craft oil filter only
with the 2.7 having a oil pump belt instead of chain/gears do you recommend the motorcraft oil over any full synth type?
Will full synthetic hurt the belts in the oil pump. This is new to me. I guess I need to find out also before I try to tackle this.
Good video. Thank you. Do you really only get one use out of the small O ring?
I get many uses, i hate that lil guy
thanks !
Why not just invest in an oil extractor? No mess and no rolling around on the garage floor especially when the vehicle has a top mount filter.
i took my f150 to dealer for oil changes every 5k. the one time im doing it myself. the bolts is rusted shut and rounded. I dont think they changed my oil unless they used some oil pump through fill cap
Awee man
Thank you, in Russia there are no such videos, because there are no these machines)
Can't find the part number, The bolt at the bottom of the engine that is yellow ...
and I saw you poured a 5 liter canister, but it seems you need 5 + 1 liter?
KX6Z-6730-B, good luck
Kirkland full synthetic, 24.00 for 10 quarts! 5w-30 or 0w-20
@@repairvehicle Project Farm has done great videos testing all sorts of synthetic oil. This one included. You should check it out.
@@repairvehicle did you watch it or are you being real skeptical? No he has not. The oil has all the proper certs and badges as do all the other brands. Check out how he tests then come back and bash what you actually have researched a bit. I'll wait.
@@repairvehicle API'S CERTIFICATION MARK AND SERVICE SYMBOL identify quality motor oils for gasoline- and diesel-powered vehicles. Not my words. Hey no one said you have to use it. It's just another possibility.
@@repairvehicle And you know this how? (this was meant for your comment above at 18 minutes ago)
@@repairvehicle That is possibly true, using that logic then pretty much none of the oils that have the marketing starburst are engine killers.
Thanks, nice job!
only thing I have to add was you didnt spray down the oil cooler that had oil splash on it.
Curious how many miles this truck has now ?
65-70k
A plastic drain plug that just clicks in?? Kinda nice but also kinda like 😯
What's wrong
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod oh nothing wrong, just something new I haven't seen on any car I've changed oil on for the last 30 years. But seems easier, kinda surprised though, I had an 2018 Mustang Ecoboost that didn't have that style plug, so maybe its new or only used in certain applications?
A lot of the composite pan use this now
why why would they put that bar in the way
Quick question. I have a 2016 2.7 ecoboost F150. The other day I checked the oil after the truck sat for about 15 to 20 mins on level ground. The oil was just below the first hole on the dip stick. So I added oil to it and checked the dip stick again in the morning. Now the oil level is slightly above the second hole on the dip stick...is it okay if the oil level is a little above the second hole? Anything to be concerned about?
Im sure youll be fine
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod thanks!
What about the oil life reset on the computer?
I have a 2019 F150 2.7, 44k miles. I've noticed oil on the front cover below the oil filter housing...particularly around the bolt, an dfurther down the front cover. Where is this leak coming from? Just the thought about taking it to ford dealer under factory warranty, I may not have my truck for 3 weeks!
Gotta put oil leak dye in it & inspect with a black light
@@PowerStrokeTechTalkwARod
Bummer. I have an appointment to take it to ford dealer Monday. Hopefully it's not major. Love the truck, but hate these type of issues.
Thank you!
Thats silicone for ya
Nice vieo. How is the current gen of 2.7 for rerliability? Thanks.
