Ford recommends having your 1987 Ford Bronco II’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Bronco II in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Bronco II may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knock knock knock coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Ford recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Ford Bronco II. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

1987 Ford Bronco II Oil Change Questions

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Ford Bronco II? Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Ford Bronco II engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Ford Bronco II oil at home? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Ford exhaust smoke gray or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, damaged piston rings, or old cylinder walls.
  • Who can change the oil on my Ford Bronco II? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Ford Bronco II oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.
  • What can cause the oil light on my Ford Bronco II to illuminate? If you’re overdue for an oil change, it might trigger your Ford Bronco II oil change reminder light. If the oil pressure light is illuminated, it could be due to low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor, or a clogged oil filter.
  • Do I need to replace my Bronco II’s oil filter when changing my oil? Every time you change the oil in your Ford Bronco II, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
