I just bought a 2002 F150 5.4l V8 Supercrew. With 86000 miles on it. Dealership did oil change and not much else. Im going to do a transmission flush, spark plugs and boots. I want to know what else I should look to service or any advice on what hoses to check or anything else to look out for. Thanks.

 

Make sure you use Motorcraft spark plugs and torque them to 28 ft/lb.

 

Flush and replace coolant.

 

Replace the rubber brake hoses and flush the brake fluid.

Of course, make sure to check the pad and lining thicknesses.

 

I just did.

 

How do I replace the hoses. I have never done that. I have bled the brake fluid though is it the same process.

 

Your truck should be like new at 86k.
Mine just tuned over 300k and expect it to go another 50k before forced retirement.
Engine runs like new.
The secret is oil and filter change every 5 to7k miles, and used MC 5w20 Blend oil with the 820S filters.
The rest is my ability to service issues as they occur..
I just don't want to give it up as it runs so well.
Good luck with your find.

 

It is like new everything is super clean and runs great. Just wanted to know what to look oit for now and at 100000 miles.

 

I would wait on the rubber brake hoses and brake fluid flush until it's time to replace the pads. Do it all at once.

Bleeding brakes with ABS can be tricky.
