Do you have any experience with the 2017 3.5 motor? Just got a 2017 Raptor and the oil pan is leaking on the passenger side rear. Bunch of guys are reporting the same leak. Is this a big job for the dealer?

FordTechMakuloco sir, how are you? I always watch your videos related to ford. I just wondering have you ever encountered a problem related to a/c that is turning on and off whenever its hot outside. I soon realized that its happening when I turned off my recirculation then the ac intermittently shutting on and off about 4sec intervals. I tried to check the ac pressures and its good. I also did alter my evap sensor. Like what you showed in your video. Even my private Mechanic cannot figured it out, i tried to bring it to the dealer and it did not show any signs of the problem. So I just dunno anymore what to do with the car. Is there any connection with the a/c and the recirculation? Maybe software problems? Thank you so much. My car is a ford escape 2014 2.5L.

I just want to thank you for this video. I picked up a stupid clean 2005 expedition King Ranch they had just had phasers timing chain guides etc. all replaced. It still ran like crap and was having issues but I bought it anyhow. I ended up replacing one of the VCT solenoid's and it started running awesome, and on our maiden voyage into town it lost oil pressure and left me stranded. After watching your video I drop the pan with help from a buddy, and it was completely full of plastic from chunks the size of my thumb or bigger, down to itty bitty flakes. The screen on the pickup tube was packed. I clean the pan out completely with gasoline and then compressed air, installed a new pick up tube and filter/screen, and she runs like a champ! God bless you and thank you for the video

@josephzitz978 Жыл бұрын

A couple of tips for Expedition owners here (6R80) (4x4 Models) The Transmission cooler lines and starter wiring harness will run above the Oil Pan Bolts, making it hard to reach, with out a flex-head wrench, in some places. The Transmission Cooler Lines will also block your way partially of dropping the pan, so the lines have to be unbolted from the bracket up front and the bracket that is attached to the Transmission Bell Housing All 3 Bolts for the Front Differential need to be removed, in order to get it to where the CV touches the Lower Control Arm. Unfortunately, the top bolt ends up running into the steering shaft when trying to slide out, so you'll have to unbolt the steering rack, so it can move and then the bolt can come sliding out. NOTE: Steering Rack Bolts are 26mm and are torqued to 200 LBS-FT.

Excellent as always!!! I just placed my order for the part. Looks easier than my 98 expedition that required removing the engine mounting bolts and jacking up the engine a few inches. That part was easy compared to getting the pan off with the sump suction pipe in a channel molded to the pan. I wrestled with it for a long time, before removing the suction pipe first. Not easy without ob/gyn hands.

@randyragon 7 жыл бұрын

When I did my 05 Expy 4x4, it has no skid plate. But the cross-member had been hit by something with the previous owner, tweaking it and needing a porta-power jack to press it out after a lot of cursing getting the bolts out from that extra pressure on them from the member being bent. I left the sway bar links in and only removed the two main brackets and swung the bar down. I also only removed the one bolt on the outer side of the axle, pried the axle down with a crowbar till it touched the A-arm below it. Measured that space and cut a piece of wood 2x4 to place in there so that constant prying to maintain that space was no longer needed. In the video above the axle doesn't completely touch the A-arm, and that is why the extra room is needed by totally taking out the sway bar. The axle being pressed down as far as it can allows easy slippage past the hanging sway bar. Your choice on which method to use. I'm just saying how I did it since there were no videos available back then for this series Ford with 4x4, only could find some for 2 wheel drive and they weren't the help Brian's video will be to others in the future.

Just finished tonight. I absolutely had to pull all 3 axle bolts out to drop oilpan. Removing the two only gained me an inch+ on the RH side. It physically won't clear. The CV shaft bottomed out and fully compressed on the driver's side, and didn't leave enough room. To pull the difficult one on the front left, below the steering shaft....I had to pull the steering shaft binding bolt and pop the top of the steering shaft off. That's the only way that particular 18mm will come out--and the Ford FSM confirms. Just a heads up for anybody else if you run into a similar instance. No doubt there were minor variances. Mine was on 2010 F150 4x4.

On a 2004 F-150 FX4 Standard Cab been having Oil slightly leaking at rear of Oil pan. Replaced Oil Filter Adapter, still leaking at rear of oil pan. Took off the plate on Bell housing and didn't see oil leaking from rear Main Seal. Removed Oil pan per your video instructions, found a plastic piece about half the size of the Oil Pick up Screen lodged in the Pick up, no other parts in oil pan. Had planned on doing the timing chain kit, phasers, guides, tensioners which I purchased from Gaudin Ford on Amazon for $625.00 Genuine Ford Parts. Have 24 Ford Rocker Followers 3L3Z-6564-A, the updated ones with smaller hole pointing at roller bearing from Wholesale Direct Parts on Amazon $106.00, Plus Melling M340HV oil Pump. Waiting on 24 Ford Valve Lash Adjusters 3L3Z-6500-BA to do timing job. The plastic piece I found in the Oil Pick up screen was from the Drivers Side stationary Guide 2L1Z-6K297-AA, appears to be the upper Corner where the short bolt goes through, wonder if Factory overtightened the Bolt. Truck has run great with 180,000 miles, considering a restricted Oil Pick up tube, as I do change motorcraft oil 5-20w and motorcraft FL-820S filter every 3000 miles. When oil pan came off noticed a lot of Black soot/Carbon on Crankshaft and bearings that would wipe off with finger, is this normal? One of the cross-member bolts was hard to get out because half of the bolt was worn down in thickness, lot of torque on that member. Thank you for All your Work, Sharing and Caring.

Well, you made it look easy, but we could make it even easier. I just went through this with a older, much older ... 351M. Take two "same thread as pan bolts" hardware bolts, cut the heads off, even saw a slot for a screw driver, now you have two "studs" with screw driver slots. Pick two opposing side pan bolt holes, thread the studs in a few turns, then when you put the pan up to the block, no sliding around while trying to start bolts with a third hand. I pick two near the rear that are easier to access to remove when all the others are started. Replace those two "studs" with bolts. Really will help when lying on your back reaching up. My '07 has 77K miles, engine is grave yard quiet at idle, but I might pull the pan next oil change just to look? This video is great.

Sure enough 1 in. piece of the chain guide down in there. I am watching your series on doing a timing kit now. Let me know of any latest tricks of the trade. Love your videos! Ken B.

I also removed two large bolts and moved rack and pinion to more easily get to back 4 pan bolts . seemed to help. it only moved about 2 inches but was just enough.

I have a 2007 f150 5.4L and I made it to the part where you show the axle joint dropping down to the swing arm, but the joint only dropped 1 inch from the bracket hole, am I doing it wrong or what the deal? It's just not droopy the rest of the way down after removing the two bracket bolt and the rear bolt.

I just replaced my oil filter gasket and seem to have two small collected drips of oil on the two inner bolts on the oil pan gasket closest to the bell housing. Would this be a rear main seal leak or oil pan gasket? There are no signs of oil anywhere else.

I have a 2004 Ford 150 I did all timing work and oil pan with the help of your videos. Very helpful. Mr problem is with oil pan gasket second one on an it still keeps leaking from right from corner. Any info what thanks Martin. And I did use silicone on 4 corners.

I removed the engine oil pan and replaced the gasket yesterday. Thanks very much for these tips. Not sure if it's only certain models, but the starter cables run directly under the RH side oil pan bolts on my 2009 Platinum and it makes for a huge pain to get at a few of the bolts! I have a question, if I decide to replace the oil pan in the next few days, could I still use the same gasket? I haven't put oil in the truck yet, it's just sitting in a garage. Or should I replace the gasket again if I install a new pan? Thanks!

Brian do you have any videos on replacing the oil pan gasket on the 4.6L motor on the Explorer/Mustang/Crown Victoria? Or the gasket that goes on the oil filter housiing?

Thank you for all of your videos. What I didn't see in this one, was how to get the pan bolts above the steering rack on a 2007. I had already removed the sway, and dropped the front axle, but still can't get the front pan bolts above the rack

Another great video just when I needed it. Although in my case my 2010 F150 has a leaking oil pan from rust through. Looks like the previous owner buried the truck in mud at some time and damaged the oil pan (no skid plate). A couple of points on my experience: 1. There was no way I could remove the pan without loosening the third bolt holding the front axle. you know, the one that's impossible to get at! You don't have to remove it but it has to be partially extracted to loosen the mount enough to get the axle to drop far enough. 2. You have to remove a couple of bolts to get the trans coolant lines and starter wire loom out of the way. 3. Be careful removing the pan bolts under the steering rack. You can easily gall the threads in the aluminum timing cover which can lead to cross threading on reinstall. 4. This job is a major pain on jack stands. I used big 5 ton ones raised high and it was still quite frustrating. It really needs to be done on a lift!

Great video, thank you. I have a 2007 FX4 F150, 5.4L 3V that needs a new oil pan gasket. 2 things I noticed different from your video. 1. It does not look like I have to remove the stabilizer bar, it is not in the way of lowering the pan. 2. Question...in your video it looks like you are lowering the drivers side axle, but on my truck it looks like I have to lower the passengers side axle. Does that make sense? Thx Much

@theezeelife292 3 жыл бұрын

That was the passenger side he lowered. On our trucks, the t-case is on the driver side which means the long shaft is on the passenger side.

Hey bro, What's up? I was hoping you could tell me if a 5.4l 3V or a 5.4l 4V mount up on a automatic transmission 5.4l 2V. mine blew a piston #8 and flaked out piston #4. I removed the oil pan and to my surprise I found pieces of #8 in side the oil pan. I was installing the timing chains when I encountered this broken piece. Can you please help me, I feel like I'm in a rut. Thanks bro!

On a 2007 Ford Exhibition, I followed your video (which is great of course) but had an issue with the just not quite eneough clearance to remove the oil pan. I ended up loosening the two motor mount bolts on the passenger side. Then using a block of wood and floor jack was able to raise the motor up about another inch and the pan came right off. Whew!

@taniaewing8513 3 жыл бұрын

I have done this twice, first for the timing components and second for an oil leak. I followed the instructions to a T, torqued per the instructions, but I continue to have a leak, all the 13mm bolts are dripping oil. The first time I used no sealant except for the T-Joints and the second time I used a light coating with the gasket. Other than the pan might be bent, unlikely, I would like to know what else I am missing.

@gdpgdp5902 Жыл бұрын

the last 4 bolts to the oil pan towards the front of the motor, above the front axle, how did you get those off? I can't imagine using anything but a wrench and doing 1/4 turns at a time. Just wondering if you used a different tool to take them out easier than by wrench.

@billybm0 Жыл бұрын

Only thing I’m missing is how much gasket sealant is really needed to seal those 4 corners. I’m a bit worried about it pushing out the sides and some getting into the oil then clogging the oil pickup screen. Will just a dap work or should it be like a complete line going across the seams?

@sabertachet 3 жыл бұрын

Is the electrical connector on the oil pan a squeeze the tab type, or a lift up the tab type. Mine is stuck and I don't want to be doing the wrong action.
