97-01 Mercury Mountaineer/Ford Explorer 5.0 How to change oil, air filter & check fluids walkthrough

In this video I will be showing you how I change my oil, check my other fluids and air filter. This is a how to do it but ALWAYS practice safety first, and I accept no responsibility for mistakes you make. You assume all risks if you do this yourself. Just a heads up, but if any questions feel free to ask.
What you will need:
Oil catch pan, funnel, filter wrench, a Jack, 2 Jack stands, a 1/4" drive ratchet, ratchet extension, 17mm socket, shop towels, oil, filter, possible air filter. Takes roughly 30 minutes to do with all the right tools.

Be honest.. Who else was listening to this in their car and paused the video at 1:37 to see if they needed to pull off to the side of the road or if those sirens in the video?? 🙋 guilty

You are supposed to put a little oil on the gasket not the threads helps it slide around the metal so I doesn't grip and break seal from the oil filter itself helps it come off and not stick to the engine and cause problems that is why you are supposed to always talk to make sure the gas that comes off the engine so you don't put the new one on and have two gaskets on the between the engine and oil filter

[@Liberallez]

Yep!!! the gasket is where you need it!!!

Get rid of that Fram air filter and put a k&n air filter in there

[@jessealdridge9920]

Why

[@verinb9]

Thanks for the video. What about the radiator fluid, where's the proper fill line? 🤔

[@superbeeflyyproductions9948]

Absolutely, and the reservoir which I pointed out for coolant actually is overflow for the radiator, the reservoir should have min and max level line. Never take a radiator cap off when a vehicle is or has been running recently. It will shoot out because of the heat of the fluid like a geyser and burn you, plus it's a lil sticky. Check the cap when the vehicle is cold and if the radiator looks low on coolant and if so top it off with your respective coolant. But keep your reservoir filled closer to the max line.

[@verinb9]

@@superbeeflyyproductions9948 yes sorry about that, that's what I was referring to the overflow reservoir. On my vehicle it's hard to tell where the line is. I have an 02 Ford Explorer. 🤔

[@superbeeflyyproductions9948]

@@verinb9 it might be on the side facing the front of vehicle or side facing the engine. I don't have the vehicle anymore but I'll do some research after work and give u a better answer
