Thank you so much for doing this video!! Soooo helpful!! Going to try & change the oil in our 1996 Motorhome myself. Keep ya posted!! 🤪
No problem! Glad to help.
I'm doing it in my '95 motorhome. This video definitely helps
great video. thank you!
No problem! Thanks for watching
I have a question. I've purchased a '95 Ford E350 motorhome. From what I've been told, it hasn't been safetied since 2019. I don't know if it got regular starts or not but would you recommend a full flush of everything (oil, coollant, etc.)? It has just over 140,000 kms, or about 87,000 miles, on it. I was told that it needs new rear lines and a battery but otherwise, I was told that it was good, as far as the seller knows. The seller was selling it for his parents, so he may only know so much. I do plan on living in it and moving further North, where they get really cold winters and more snow then my current location (Toronto). I'm not exactly mechanically inclined but I do have interest and looking to save as much money as possible by doing some things myself, like oil changes
I had a question. If i have a 96 e350 and i need to change the solenoid sensor in the transmission - do you think it could be a bad idea to change that bc of that "change vs do not change" transmission fluid debate
If you have a. bad solenoid, you don't really have a choice.
it depends on how bad the fluid is. if its completely black and never serviced I would be worried about the transmission just in general. if it's red and serviced regularly should be no problem. I would always avoid flushes on older transmissions, but just drain and fill the pan. you could also just put the old fluid back in if you really wanted too. I also like Lucas transmission fix additive. If the old nasty fluid is keeping the transmission still working than that stuff will definitely work if you want to change the fluid. My 4runner trans fluid was a bit neglected but I changed it a few times, ever since I had that vehicle I would get some hard shifts. not crazy bad but not the best, no slipping or anything. I used that in the trans with a fluid change a year or 2 ago, shifts way smoother, no issues. I'm going to use it in my van as well when I change the fluid but the fluid in the van is nice and red, it was always serviced, just get a hard shift once in a while. I would also change your filter either way while you in there.
Wait youve had a 7.0? I thought you had a 5.8
I have a 7.5 L actually. pretty rare in these vans it seems I never find the 7.5 in the junk yard only 5.8L usually
