I spent wayyyy to much time under mine because that damn wheel was very obstructive

And most of it that would have hit the subframe was on the shop towel (which would be much more important than a funnel that didn't seem to catch much oil anyways)

thanks for watching and the support.

Thanks for watching!

Your 18 has a cartridge, like the video.

Where did u buy the oil

be careful and watch my recently oil change from hell video so you do not run into a jam

Yes the package with the filter includes them.

dipstick tube is wayyy to small to fit any of my attachments. also with the filter being on the bottom, there's no point in sucking it from the top.

I will have a new oil change video live tomorrow on the channel showing the newer style cartridge filter on my 2019 GT350R

yeah my idea worked great and taking the drivers wheel off having the entire car raised is the way to do this with zero mess.

On my 2011 mustang, I had someone do a oil change for me, they didn't use any cardboard, to keep the oil from going every where. Oil got onto the connectors for the electric power steering. About 20 mile later, every dash light lit up, lost my power steering, and a few other accessories. We tried cleaning the connectors, but it would still intermittently go nuts on me. Finally had to replace the whole lower wiring harness. So no matter what you do make sure you at least use cardboard to keep oil away from the connectors on the steering rack

yes soon I am waiting to get more miles then full oil change and oil analysis video coming on the 350R

@@autofanaticcars I am sure you are doing it after the initial 1k miles. I waited until 2.2k miles, and I wish I had done my first oil change at 1k or a little less. I saw a lot of metal particles stuck on the oil filter element.

on these cars i do my first at around 500 then 1500 and then 3000 increments. the first one is the most important since the factor fill is garbage and there will be particles in the oil that sheer off during break in.I am sending the oil to Blackstone that gets removed from the car, if the weather permits might be next week il have a video on this.

you can convert over to the new filter for about $450

the Shelby is super easy to drain out but on my Alfa Romeo QV i extract from the top it really depends on the car but i use both methods.

much easier to use the gallon containers trust me on that the smaller ones tip over to easily.

yeah you would think they would make life easier for us or dealer techs.

Thanks for sharing your knowledge and keep up the great videos

😂😂

Read your manual!

il be doing one soon once the damn weather gives me a break it just too cold still,

yes Amsoil is the best, no consumption issues since i switched.

175-205

yes do not use the motorcraft oil it sucks

ha ha ha your not the only one, thanks for watching

I have them. They block rocks. They are virtually invisible when installed.

F355bob it might, the Shelby is bad at oil consumption. What year is your 355 im dying to buy one but so afraid of the upkeep on those cars. Looking for a Berlineta with 6 speed which is hard to find as most cars are convertibles on the market.

95 with a lot of suspension and engine mods. Fantastic cars but maintenance is high.

new car i do 3 changes within the first 1500 miles go watch my new video of the first oil change of my GT350R from a few days ago

i think when the Ford GT and GT350 came out

They've been making 5w50 for at least 3years.

To be clear, still not too bad of a job without the panel... but I see how it could be easier.

take the wheel off as i show here forget the access panel below

Right on man. That was what I did. Thanks for the quick reply! Love the videos.

Not a drop in 2000 miles on my 19.

was not avail time this video was shot

Mercedes, BMW, Subaru.... I don't know why all manufacturers don't have top access oil filters. I guess they figure most people are paying to get it done, so why make it easier for the DIYer. At the same time, since most people are getting it done at a Ford dealer, and the Ford dealer is going to charge the same for an oil change either way, why not reduce your labor hours by 10 minutes. 10 minutes times millions of oil changes is a lot of money.

Toyota does that on some vehicles, too.

Paul Baker Better seal with the piston rings.

Jonathan G, piston ring seal doesn’t give better oil pressure..

Amsoil it is on the work bench

As long as it doesn't turn, you aren't over-torquing

i do not think so but do your research the Amsoil is really the top

Thank you.

5w-50 i believe

they do not make it for this car i was told

@@autofanaticcarsI currently use royal purple in my car, but just heard about all the benefits AMSOIL has. Is it as good as they say?

yes its the best oil, all the engineers told me about RP issues and i stopped using it years ago it is too slick and thin with not enough shock dampening for moving parts especially gears etc. After using Amsoil since 2011 on every car they all stopped burning oil, quieter valvetrain, better milage and better oil PSI, look into trying it i think you wont look back once you do

@@autofanaticcarsI currently use royal purple in my car, but just heard about all the benefits AMSOIL has. Is it as good as they say?

@@autofanaticcars will do, next oil change. Thanks

yeah the location of this filter is so stupid on this car, very hard not to make a mess but my funnel and removing the wheel truly saves the day.

I recycle always in the containers I show and drop off at the shop or Nappa, im sure getting caught is not fun

Back in the day, the old timers dumped both oil and anti-freeze in the storm drains.

its carbon composite all new cars are switching to this technology even the high end exotics, saves weight and easier to manufacture with high volume repeatability.

Wow this is a very uneducated comment....

All oil filters either a spin on or cartridge style has paper.

I prefer the metal clad ones. Putting a 24mm socket to a plastic oil filter housing gives me the chills.
