RE: Oil Change: For those who want to do it themselves, but are a little unsure...
why do you want to put 5w30 in when it takes 5w20 is my first question...
not sure where you are getting those numbers but the FL-820-S is the one to use
the FL1A is 2.3L OHC Ranger/Mustang(94),4.9L F-Series/E-Series, 5.0L F-Series/E-Series/Bronco(96), etc
and the FL300 is for 5.0L Mustang Cobra
Are you sure you want to do this yourself or just take it to a dealer...

Well finally got all the info to do first oilchange!(Thanks to TacoBill and all who had something constructive to say)
Just ordered a Motorcraft fl-820S / got the Rhino ramps etc. and since she only has 5k on her I'm going to hold off on the 5W30
Wish me luck!
