    Leave the fill cap on and the dip stick in until after taking the drain bolt out. Less mess.

    Oil change at 3500 miles with a synthetic blend seems soon; however, he still had 42 percent remaining. Full synthetic is good for 5,000 miles. If you follow the trucks oil life monitoring it can be longer, however I follow old customs and don't exceed 5k miles regardless of oil type and brand recommendations. Thanks for the bolt sizes, saved my big a$$ from an extra trip under the truck.

      3500 isn’t too soon getting oil change done this coming up week with 2200 miles on it thr blend one it’s dark brown color time and to change . I’m switching to full synthetic and I’m doing every 6 months or 4 k whatever comes first

    Please be aware that the motorcraft synthetic blend oil is the minimum requirement from Ford on these engines. The reason Ford recommends synthetic blend is because it is the lowest cost oil for that engine so that people don't complain of a higher price oil for the oil change. You certainly can upgrade to a full synthetic oil and still be within the Ford recommended specs but understand that it will cost more.

    You may not know it but "Synthetic Blend" oil is conventional mineral oil with some synthetic added. There is no criteria for the amount of synthetic required to be a "blend". Therefore it could be just a drop per barrel.
