how do you change the engine oil and oil filter on a 96 ford aspire
If you have a Ford Aspire with no oil in it, that doesn't use oil, you're in trouble...
With engine oil filter change ( 3.6 quarts ) according to the Owner Guide
According to the 1997 Ford Aspire Owner Guide : With engine oil filter change ; The 1.3 liter / 81 cubic inch four cylinder engine takes : ( 3.6 U.S. quarts / 3.4 liters of PREFERRABLY 5W-30 )
3.6 quarts ( 3.4 liters ) with engine oil filter change , according to the 1996 Ford Aspire Owner Guide for your 1.3 liter engine
The 1997 Ford Aspire owners manual ( view on-line at www . motorcraft service . com - no spaces - click on Owner Guides ) shows Motorcraft MERCON for the automatic and manual transaxles . Approximate capacity for the manual transaxle is ( 5.2 quarts / 4.9 liters )
The ( 1996 ) Ford Aspire Owner Guide shows ( 5W-30 ) as the PREFERRED oil viscosity
With engine oil filter change , the ( 1996 Ford Aspire ) takes ( 3.6 quarts )
Use 5W30 and if you want to know what brand I would suggest valvoline brand.
The easiest way to fix a low growling noise in a 1997 Ford Aspire might be to add Lucus oil stabilizer to the oil. This will depend greatly on where the low growling noise is coming from and it might be even easier to first have a mechanic pinpoint the noise.
I believe that is 3.4 to 3.6 quarts , with engine oil filter change
