STEVE -Your thinking of the Powerstroke 7.3L Fuel filter in the valley aren't you, not the BIG lube oil filter on the back end of the oil cooler on left rear of the engine? Done something over 110 oil changes to my 7.3L. SON's got it now. He gets compliments on what a great looking '96 F250 he has, and people reach for their checkbook to buy it when he says it has a 5 speed, not the E4OD. But nobody says anything to him when he pulls into a gas station with his 2018 Mustang GT with Performance Pkg #2, that's the Torsen diff, electronic shocks, front air splitter, push-button exhaust tone control, and 6 spd manual trans. Wife wanted to take her 2015 Ford Edge back to the dealer so That's what we do. I started doing the first oil change in my 2018 Ram 1500 with 5.7L Hemi, barely had room in the shop, was a warm drizzly day, garage floor started flooding, new truck was much lower than the F250, wet floor, so I stopped working on it. I had the new oil & filter I wanted to use. Called a small car/truck repair shop with good reviews, told the guy I had my own oil and filter but he didn't say anything. He charged me more than full price that we pay for the wife's car. He did let me walk around inspecting my new truck while it was on the lift. He did NOT have the oil or filter I wanted to use. I was all O-K with being over-charged, him chasing me back out of the shop, but then I asked if He'd install a block heater if I bought the factory heater. Then he ran off the rails and hollered at me, "I'll install ANY heater that YOU don't Buy", I have to sell parts or I go broke." I explained the dealer quoted me over $500 to install the oem heater that I can buy for $135 on-line. Dealer says 2 hours labor, And asked what his hourly rate was. "I won't work on your truck!" Anyhow, I hope he starves to death. I feel sorry for his help. I have cramps, I'll buy my oil and filter myself at Farm & Fleet when it needs changing again. My old F250 I drove 30,000+ miles a year, it got oil/filter change every 4-5 weeks. My new truck gets changed once a year, about every 3000 miles.

Today's Featured Article - New Hitches For Your Old Tractor - by Chris Pratt. For this article, we are going to make the irrational and unlikely assumption that you purchased an older tractor that is in tip top shape and needs no immediate repairs other than an oil change and a good bath. To the newcomer planning to restore the machine, this means you have everything you need for the moment (something to sit in the shop and just look at for awhile while you read the books). To the newcomer that wants to get out and use the machine for field work, you may have already hit a major roadblock. That is the dreaded "proprietary hitch". With the exception of the
