1995 4.9l upkeep.

Hi, new to the site. I have a 1995 F150 w/4.9l six cyl. 5 speed. I hear these engines run for a LONG time with good upkeep. Could someone tell me if these engines have any problem areas to look for? Mine has 106,000 miles and is in really nice shape, like to keep it that way. Any info would be welcomed, thanks!!

Welcome MadGool
Congratulations on your truck and joining the site! I have a '94 4.9 4x4 F-150, Motorcraft oil filters and high quality everything else and you'll be fine.
There's a sub forum for us six bangers and these cats KNOW their chit.
hope you'll enjoy your 4.9 as much as I'm enjoying mine.

I used to have one too, ran strong forever with good regular maintenance. I just got tired of shifting gears, but with gas today I wish I still had it.
