1996 Ford E-350 Econoline Scheduled Maintenance

Take care of your Ford E-350 Econoline and it'll take care of you. With proactive maintenance, you could hit 200,000 miles (or beyond!) in your E-350 Econoline. Not an expert in what services your car needs and when? No problem. Instead of waiting for an issue to arise with your E-350 Econoline, you can stay ahead of problems before they even begin. Just follow your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline maintenance schedule!

The recommended maintenance schedule is put together by Ford, your vehicle manufacturer. Depending on driving conditions and climate in your area (as well as other contributing factors, like your personal travel habits), your car’s scheduled maintenance needs may vary; in most cases, though, recommended maintenance will consist of services like tire rotations, vital fluid checks/exchanges, filter changes, brake pad replacement, and oil changes. Keeping up with routine service appointments is a great way to keep your E-350 Econoline running for longer, decrease your risk of dangerous malfunctions on the road, and maybe even save you the headache of dealing with common 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline problems in the future.

Come to Firestone Complete Auto Care for manufacturer-recommended routine maintenance on your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline and our technicians will jump right in with a Courtesy Check. The Courtesy Check helps us see what we’re working with under the hood, and allows us to alert you to any potential problems before they worsen. Every Courtesy Check will include a visual inspection of your E-350 Econoline. We’ll check your head and tail lights, fluid levels, filters, tires (and their alignment!), and windshield wiper blades. We’ll also perform a free battery check to determine your battery’s charge level.

Could your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline be ready for a new battery? Batteries generally need to be replaced every 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. Short trips and extreme temperatures can shorten the overall life expectancy of your Ford E-350 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, your battery could die unexpectedly, leaving you and your E-350 Econoline stranded. Your Ford E-350 Econoline could quickly go from being a trusty ride to a source of stress in a matter of minutes.

In addition to maintaining a strong battery, investing in regular oil changes can prevent premature wear on your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline engine. To learn how often Ford recommends you have the oil changed in your 1996 E-350 Econoline, check out the information table at the beginning of this page. Don’t forget, though, that weather conditions in your area or your personal driving habits can affect this interval. A Firestone Complete Auto Care technician will be happy to help you determine the best oil change frequency for your car’s needs. We'll also help you understand what type of oil to use for your 1996 Ford E-350 Econoline.
