Changing The Engine Oil And The Oil Filter; Oil Change Intervals - Ford Econoline/Club Wagon E-150 Owner's Manual

Changing the Engine Oil and the Oil Filter

Change the engine oil and oil filter per the
following, whichever occurs first.

Oil change intervals

NOTE: Idling the engine for extended periods
will accumulate more hours of use on
your vehicles than is actually indicated
by the mileage odometer.
Consequently, the odometer reading
can be often misleading when
determining the right time to change
your engine oil and filter.
If you are using your Ford vehicle in a manner
which allows it to remain stationary while the
engine is running for long periods (door to
door delivery, taxi, police, power/utility
company trucks, or similar duty), then Ford
recommends you increase the frequency of oil
and filter changes to an interval equivalent to
200 ENGINE HOURS of use. Since most
vehicles are not equipped with hourmeters, it
may be necessary for you to approximate your
idle time and plan oil/filter changes
accordingly.
