What is with the 3 o rings? What did Ford do? I've only ever had to mess with the oil and spin on filter with my vehicles.
I have the 2.7L Ecoboost, and they went to an internal filter there. I have a similar filter on my 4Runner as well, though it doesn't have the same o-ring design.
Other than that one dang little o-ring, the F-150 is actually one of the easier and quicker oil changes I've done, at least work-wise. It actually takes me an hour, but it's only about 15 minutes of work. The other quirk with the 2.7L, and the newer 3.5L Ecoboosts as well, now that they also have stop/start tech, is that you have to wait 20 minutes after the engine is turned off for the oil to drain out because of the engine design for stop/start.
Takes another 20 minutes for all the oil to get into the pan for an accurate reading after you put the new stuff in, and Ford actually had to put out a TSB about it, because techs were either taking only five minutes to drain the oil, and/or putting new oil in, checking the dipstick right away and not seeing anything, then overfilling. Early on apparently lots of people were driving around with 8-9 quarts in a 6 quart system. I'm betting a lot of people who take their 2.7s to Jiffy Lube are still driving around with a couple of extra quarts.
