How should I maintain my Ford Ranger's engine?

I recently bought a Ford Ranger and I want to make sure I properly maintain its engine. What are some tips and advice on keeping the engine in top shape?

Regular oil changes are key in maintaining your engine's health. Opt for high-quality oil and follow the manufacturer's recommended schedule.

Keep an eye on your engine's temperature and make sure it doesn't overheat. If it does, get it checked by a professional immediately.

Check your engine's air filter regularly and replace it when it gets dirty. This will help your engine run more efficiently.
