I use ramps to get under the truck better, but when doing that, when you pull the drain plug, it really hits that sway bar even more! I discovered by leaving the filler cap in when opening the drain plug it manages the flow better, once the flow slows, then I open the filler cap. Was a hell of a mess that first time!

That is great advice for people who use ramps! I'll pin this to the top so others know:)

Had mine on ramps and it hit that sway bar and sprayed the whole garage floor. Never seen something like that before haha.

Glad you found the video useful. Thanks for the comment.

Thanks for the demo. I have a 2020 Ford Edge ST 2.7. My oil change date is coming up.

just bought mine. Thank you for this very useful video

definitely recommend the ronin drain plug makes oil changes on any ford engine with the plastic drain plug a breeze and no mess

Awesome video! Saved to my watch later for my first oil change in my 2021 F-150.

Do you have a 2.7 as well? I just got one and noticed I hear the turbos blowing air. Do you hear the turbos spooling in yours or maybe I have a loose hose connection. I hear the blow off when I let go of the gas too.

Very useful for me, great job!

Great video. I just changed the oil for the first time and it helped so much.. Thanks for making it!

Great video! I see she ran oil life all the way down to 0% id recommended only using 50-60% of the “oil life” turbos cook oil, and I personally wouldn’t go over 5000-6000 miles, even with full synthetic on an ecoboost engine. Change earlier, or run something like Mobil Extended or Castrol Edge Extended if you’re going to go all 10k miles. Thanks for the video!

Happy to help. Thanks for the comment.

fantastic video, real helpful.. just one thing i noticed was the damn engine light stayed on.. tried to reset it a few different ways.. but after about a 5 mile drive it did reset itself..

Do not use the trucks oil change intervals I change mine when it's at 30% and it's around 5,000 miles give or take oil is dark at that pointuse ronin factory oil drain plug attached a airline hose works great no mess🙂

Thanks that helpful

Jimmy2tech, Excellent work.

Great video. Changed the oil in my truck after watching your video. Subscribed also.

Quick tip. Before you try to install the small O-ring, slide it over a needle nose pliers. you can then pre stretch it. makes install easier. Also, for me it was a good idea to install the new filter in the housing before struggling with the small O-ring. I didn't my first oil change and inadvertently put side pressure on the shaft and snapped it clean off. This resulted in a day of driving all over Minnesota to find a dealership with a new 2.7 ecoboost oil filter housing in stock. I guess with age and heat they can get brittle. Great video!

Just did my first change on my 2.7l, had about 6K miles oil meter was at 35%. Need to find a better way to catch the oil from the drain plug maybe a kiddie pool would be best. I tried to use an old 1 gallon washer fluid bottle, cutting off one side so the oil would be directed down into my catch pan and not back toward the rear, it helped but not enough room will try something else next.

Looking at getting an f-150 2.7 or a 2.7 Silverado. After watching this: Removing the plastic shroud, and the o-rings on the filter, are big points against for me 🤔. You having to cut the camera to put on the tiny o-ring got me worried haha! thanks for the Vid! 👍

Make sure you drain every bit of oil in the crankcase,otherwise 6qts will overfill it

Is this the same for the 2020 f150 3.5? By same I mean the oil filter is in the same location and same plug? I’m afraid to change my own oil but this video helped a ton!

Good video , unless that smaller o ring is damaged id just leave it on there no sense replacing it every time .

Since it comes with the kit, we figured why not just replace it. It just takes a moment, unless your hands are oily haha.

Fk I was looking oil filter all over place 😅 I’ll just KZread it thanks

Any chance you could drop a link for the O ring on the oil plug?

Hello David, Ford does not carry just the O-ring from what they told me. For 14 bucks you can get 3 new drain plugs on Amazon amzn.to/3lCeCan Or if you want a Ford original part you can get one from a place like Varsity Ford online tinyurl.com/ydoujp6d. Hope this helps.

Get a set of ramps

Yes need tools for removing the oil filter 😀😀

Good video y’all but very disappointing design very cheaply made 👎
