Another reason for using the same or similar large CLEAN funnel to pour oil into the engine, is to leave the bottle for a few minutes longer (as he did in the video) so the bottle empties completely. If you have time constraints, choose one and place the other bottle on top to drip dry into it, 30 minutes each. Amazing how much is still left in the supposedly empty bottle.😊

My 24 had it right off the rip I've had alot of coyotes, every generation to be exact. The only coyote variant I've owned that didn't was my GT350. It is a normal characteristic of the coyote engine, and he's right some don't develop it for whatever reason. I will say this ceratec does work, infact in my gen 2 coyote had it, I used one bottle of ceratec and it went away instantly. And the best part I changed the oil after didn't use ceratec and it was still gone. So the point of this long winded comment is this is that noise detrimental on the engine no, is that noise annoying yes, is ceratec magic no, does it work yes.

@homesaverchimney 6 ай бұрын

Will be changing the oil in my 17 soon for the first time since getting it 4 months ago. No tick now and plan to keep it that way so I already have the Ceratec to go with the new oil. Pretty sure the previous owner used it as well. Soon be at 54k miles.

@coastalparasail 6 ай бұрын

Ceratec definitely works but just a heads up if you’re going to use it , you’re supposed to put two full bottles in , one bottle for every 5 quarts of oil. I use it in my GEN 3 coyote Mach 1 and I have never heard the tick come back since I’ve started using it. 🇺🇸💪🏼🐎

Ford Mustang GT came out in Australia around in 2015. Some of the Coyote Engines run on 5W-20 and 5W-30 Engine oils. If the Mustang Made the " Typewriter Click " some of the owners would drain out the Oil and Filter and put in 9.5 Litres of 0W-40 Engine Oil . There is also a bigger oil filter called Ford Racing that fits in Coyote Engines 2015 - Present.

Had the tick when I switched from synthetic blend to full synthetic on my 2015 GT, immediately went back to the shop and they drained it and put back synthetic blend and the noise went away and never came back. Sticking to synthetic blend on my 2024 GT as well.

5W-50 also solves the problem. That’s all ford performance uses in the track attack cars and they all run super quiet. I have a 21 Mach 1 and when I attended the track attack I said what’s in these for oil? They’re so quiet. He said you noticed we use 5W-50 only. I switched to Amsoil 5W-50 problem solved.

I've never changed the oil in my car, always took it in, but I'm about to buy one of these and it'll be my first new car that I purchase (parents handed down the one I have now) and I want to care for it myself. Something I'm trying to figure out is I assume some oil will be left over after draining it, would it make sense to put a little less than the 10 quarts in the engine because of that? I just don't want to end up over or under filling the engine.

Good question. I wouldn't overthink it. I've never overfilled an engine by using the manufacturers recommended capacity. As we show in the video, when you're finished, check the dipstick for reassurance. -Landan

@shawnsanders9450 4 ай бұрын

HIGHLY recommend a better oil than a blend. Even the Motorcraft one. A good FULL synthetic oil like Mobil 1, Amsoil, Quaker State, Valvoline, Castrol ect. will have much better sheer resistance than that blend. Especially a high performance engine like the Coyote with direct injection could really use a full synthetic oil so it doesn't break down as easy. The fuel from the direct injection WILL contaminate the oil and break it down. If you use E10 to E85 fuel the issue is even more dire.

I've always prefilled my new oil filters (if they installed vertically) and put a light coating of oil on the new filter's gasket. Also, I never torqued an oil filter! Just run them up until the gasket touches, then hand tighten them 3/4 of turn.... done! Never had a gasket stick to the block when removing the old oil filter.

The reason to pre-fill the oil filter is simple. It takes a few seconds for the oil pump to fill the new oil filter.. Guess what’s not getting oil pressure for those few seconds?

Looks like Ford learned their lesson with the plastic oil pan and drain plug. Also, i recommend to use full synthetic oil and change it twice as often as Ford says. Direct injection and Ethanol fuel really wreak havcoc on oil. Ford only has to warranty for 60k miles and hopes something happens after that so you buy a new car from them. Also, that skid plate is horrible Ford. Thats as bad as a German car. It needs smaller panels for the oil filter and drain plug that can be taken off with one screw. For instance my gen 3 Coyote has a flap in the skid plate that comes down with one screw while the oil drain is open for access.

Why I can buy ford oil at Walmart cheaper. 77 dollars plus shipping. I go to Walmart 25x2 for the oil 8 for the filter 64 buck out the door. As opposed to 87. Unless they send LMR secret oil that turns every car into a factory freak. Please these guys send over original Ford parts to automotive manufacturers in China. They order a product run and sell these inferior Knock offs for huge profit margins. The car reproduction/restoration parts market is a huge ripoff to consumers. They lack the quality and design of original parts while devaluing your car.

Thanks for the comment. It's definitely difficult to compete with big box retailers when it comes to certain items. Simply put, they buy more, so they get a better price. We do our best to offer value to our customer's in the form of customer service, articles, videos, and other forms of content. While some folks find it beneficial, others don't. It's simple perception. We all think differently. With that being said, I'll definitely forward this over to our pricing team for them to review. We always appreciate everyone's feedback; good, bad, or indifferent. To address your mention about the "knock-off" parts. We're all entitled to an opinion. The sole purpose of offering aftermarket reproduction or factory-style parts is for owners to have options. Old OEM parts get harder and harder to find everyday. A lot of people find it easier to just buy new and not worry about the hassle of chasing down like-new or decently used take-off parts. Go look at any other retailer that sells restoration parts. I'm not talking about just Mustang either. Camaro, Chevelle, Pontiac, Dodge, Chrysler. The list goes on. In closing, thanks for providing feedback. Regardless if it's positive or negative, I think it goes to show that we'll listen to what people have to say and forward the suggestions to the right channels for review. Have a great day! -Landan
