Thank you so much for this upload! I am a die hard excursion fan for no particular reason lol and nobody uploads very many videos of this car anymore! Believe me although this truck has been gone since 05 I think it's still very relevant! Please make more videos of it if you can I love watching them haha! Take care! (And thanks for the oil change tips!) :)

I have the exact same car same model year same engine and 4x4 and have always wonder if the DIY oil change is difficult, now that after watching your video I have confidence that I can do the oil change myself. Thank you so much for the video. Our family loves the Ford Excursion, we took it to the mountain and snow country and it has never failed us.

Try tapping or drilling a hole in the bottom of the oil filter to drain it before you take it off.

I really wish Ford would bring back the excursions ,I own two since one was not enough ,I seen a few 6 door excursions ,so if Ford decides to start making them again hope they make them in the 6 door versions instead of the 4 door
@mercedesbenzs600bash3 жыл бұрын
6 doors are pretty much custom so I doubt if Ford would do that,I do feel Ford will make Excursions again,one day...Don't really know why they stop making them in the first place🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔🤔

What about the oil pan gasket is it true you have to pull out entire motor to change the oil pan gasket
@stlswagger Жыл бұрын
I know this is old but oil extraction was available then just like now. Much easier to pump it out the dip stick tube. I have never had to change the oil from under any car over the last 10 years so comment is relevant....

Ford Excursion is my favorite vehicle. Excursion is the best full-size SUV. It has bigger interior, larger cargo space & way better towing capability, than any SUVs have. Just compare, even new Suburban, Yukon XL, Escalade ESV, Navigator L or Expedition MAX. No competition. Excursion is the King & only new Excursion will be better. Ford must start producing new Excursions - the largest & the strongest SUV of all time. Just imagine, new Excursion body-on-frame heavy-duty largest & heaviest SUV with much more powerful new (gasoline & diesel) engines & transmission (from new Super Duty). More powerful, more fuel efficient, more durable, more comfortable & faster. New Excursion with all new exterior look & with way more quality new interior. Ford must do it. Before this, my choice is used Excursion.

Does anyone know why my V10 Excursion uses a qt of oil every 900 miles when I use the recommended 5-30 oil, but it only uses a qt of oil every 2000 miles when I use 10-30?

Not for a 99 V10, owner’s manual and oil cap say 5-30. My Excursion was built in September 99.

@@TJ-qz6hr The production date (build year) is different than the model year. In your case, its production date is 1999, but its model year is 2000. I own a 2001 model year Excursion, but its production date is August 11, 2000. Refer to your vehicle certification (VC) label on the lower doorpost (a.k.a. B-post), behind the driver's door; or check the VIN plate that's located on the instrument panel, top-upper left of the dash. The 8th VIN position is the engine displacement and number of cylinders...an "S" code indicates that the engine is a 6.8L, SOHC, EFI, V10, Gas. These are modular designed engines. Their oil specs. require 6-quarts of Super Premium SAE 5w-20 Engine oil to meet Ford Specification WSS-M2C153-H (5-quarts if you are not replacing the oil filter). There was a technical service bulletin issued from Ford requiring a change in oil viscosity for those engines installed in the 2000 model year from 5w-30 to 5w-20. The publication date: 01-14-2002, article #2-1-9

5.7L V8 hemi uses 6 quarts too. Used in chargers, ram 1500 and 2500s. So 6 quarts is very standard for a big gasser.

After replacing oil with 6 quarts, the level is showing very high. After reading the manual for my 2001 v10 I found that it calls for only 4 quarts. Any thoughts??

That's wierd. 4qts doesn't sound like enough. I would just add oil until the level on the dipstick was acceptable.

Must have an expedition or an explorer for whatever reason some people mix that up a lot the excursion is the super duty lineup I’m not sure what the oil quantity is for the explore or the expedition but the excursion is it’s own thing by itself so maybe that’s where he messed up and in that case he totally overfilled it LOL that’s a big oof
