1990 Ford E-150 Econoline Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Ford E-150 Econoline and it'll take care of you. With the right maintenance at the right time, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your E-150 Econoline. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. There's no need to guess when it's time to get E-150 Econoline maintenance, and no need to wait until something goes wrong. It’s as easy as following the recommended maintenance schedule that’s been written specifically for your 1990 Ford E-150 Econoline!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Ford, your vehicle manufacturer. Scheduled maintenance services can vary depending on driving conditions, climate, and other factors; however, recommended maintenance usually includes services like oil changes, tire rotations, brake pad replacement, filter changes, and fluid checks and exchanges. Scheduling routine service appointments is one of the best ways to help extend your E-150 Econoline's life, increase your vehicle safety, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1990 Ford E-150 Econoline problems in the future.

Bring your 1990 Ford E-150 Econoline to Firestone Complete Auto Care for factory-recommended maintenance services and an expert technician will begin by performing a Courtesy Check. This Courtesy Check can establish a baseline of what may need to be addressed during your service appointment. During a Courtesy Check, we’ll always check your battery, then we’ll move on to inspect your E-150 Econoline’s head and tail lights, tires, fluid levels, alignment, and windshield wipers.

Think you could be due for a new battery in your 1990 Ford E-150 Econoline? In general, car batteries only last three to five years. There’s a chance you’ll need a replacement sooner, but it depends on the climate in your area as well as your driving habits. Taking short trips or exposing your car to extreme temperatures (like in the dead of winter or heat of summer) could reduce the life expectancy of your Ford E-150 Econoline battery. Sure, you could wait until your battery is completely dead, but it’s a much wiser decision to replace it before you need to. Otherwise, you may find yourself (and your trusty E-150 Econoline) stuck in the middle of nowhere. Your Ford E-150 Econoline won’t even be able to start with a weak battery, much less get you where you need to go.

Ensuring you always have a well-charged battery can help your car’s overall performance, and regularly scheduled oil changes can help your 1990 Ford E-150 Econoline's engine run smoother.
