Oil Change Q&A for Your 1996 Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil runs low, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.
  • Can I change my Ford oil on my own? First off, changing your own oil isn’t as easy as you’d think. You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle 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. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who does Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What does it mean if my Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon oil light comes on? Your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon oil change reminder light may come on if you're overdue for an oil change. The oil pressure light will typically come on if the oil level in the engine is too low, the oil pump is failing, you have a clogged oil filter, or there's a faulty oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to change my E-150 Econoline Club Wagon's oil filter when I get an oil change? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Ford E-150 Econoline Club Wagon every time you change the oil. After all, what’s the point of changing our oil if you’re just going to send fresh, clean engine oil through an already dirty filter?
