I just bought this truck today 1999 F250 with the v10. Brought it home and changed the oil and filter. Refilled with 6 quarts and back it
off the jack stands. First thing I noticed was there was only 3 quarts of old oil. Checked the oil and it appeared to be over filled. Old
oil was black - but not sludgy. I decided to drain the oil again. Got 5.5 quarts out but it looked as dirty as it would at 3000 miles - it
has only driven 10 feet.
Do you think I have an engine full of sludge?
Truck only has 130K miles on it and looks it. Previous owner claims it had a long block installed at 110K miles.
