Done and done...

Latest oil change done, no thanks to the engineer at Ford who designed the oiling system on the 6.7 PowerStroke!

Used the new 5w40 full synthetic oil and new upgraded Motorcraft FL2124S filter.
Full synthetic oil is great! Heck, my fuel economy went up by 5 MPG just doing my test drive around the block!

And installed, finally, my new EZ-106 drain valve, bought the doggone thing back in November last year, been sitting on the workbench ever since, now in use.

I'm in a 7.3L, but I've got to get some of that higher MPG oil!

Very similar to the 0W-20 some newer engines use. I always check to see the price of Wesson vegetable oil or Crisco to see which one is on sale. Sometimes, I splurge and get peanut oil.

I run Marvel Mystery Oil in my 6.7, it's great....kind of expensive though. But it does cure everything.

Dealers use an oil extractor through the dipstick.

It still hasn't worked to cure my male pattern baldness. Makes the coffee taste great though. Maybe more seafoam next time?

Add a little Miracle Grow to the mix.
