Hello All, I recently purchased a 1996 E350 Cargo Van with the 7.3L Powerstroke engine with 276,000 miles.

The previous owner said that he never changed the automatic transmission fluid, coolant, or the rear axle fluid. The fuel filter was changed 70K ago.

I assume that for preventative maintenance, that I should have all three of these changed, and a new fuel filter ASAP.

Please let me know if you guys change these fluids yourself and if it's pretty easy.

I am having a difficult time finding a repair book for the 1996 E350 7.3L Powerstroke Van. Can't find one anywhere. Please let me know if you know of a source for a repair manual.
