Engine Oiling System: Notes

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 7 other vehicles, including the 1995 Ford RV Cutaway, 1995 Ford Pickup, 1995 Ford Econoline, 1995 Ford Cutaway, and 1995 Ford Club Wagon. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

Engine lubrication system is a force-feed type. Oil is supplied under full pressure to crankshaft, connecting rods, camshaft bearing and valve lifters. A controlled volume of oil is supplied to rocker arms and push rods. All other moving parts are lubricated by splash or gravity flow. Oil flows through oil filter before entering main oil gallery. See Fig 1.
