After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Ford recommends having your 1991 Ford E-150 Econoline’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. No matter the mileage, your E-150 Econoline 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 see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Ford recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty areas, enjoy off-roading, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Ford E-150 Econoline. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.

Oil Change Q&A for Your 1991 Ford E-150 Econoline

  • What can low oil do to my Ford E-150 Econoline engine? Engine oil lubricates moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Ford E-150 Econoline engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Ford E-150 Econoline oil at home? Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might 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 E-150 Econoline exhaust smoke grayish or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, fried piston rings, or damaged cylinder walls.
  • Who offers Ford E-150 Econoline oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Ford E-150 Econoline 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 oil light comes on? Your Ford E-150 Econoline 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.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Ford E-150 Econoline? It’s highly advised you replace the oil filter in your Ford E-150 Econoline every time you change the oil.
