@15:07 Back in the day (Decades Ago) when I did oil changes, when the filter was removed, I would clean the mounting base with a rag and then apply new clean oil to the gasket ring. Also I remember the day when on a Chevy, you had to loosen the bolt and the steel can came down with the filter inside it. Then you had to remove the two bolts holding the filter base plate so you could remove the sealing ring. Then you went over to the parts washer and cleaned everything, put the new sealing gasket ring on the filter base, bolted that piece back in, put the new filter cartridge in the steel can and bolted that assembly back on to the engine block. Hundreds of times. @30:52 When is a hood not a hood? When the dashboard says it is "A Jar"!!🤣🤣🤣

I know you are right. 50 years ago I was working at a cab company changing oil and I forgot oil on one checker cab with 250 straight 6 chevy engine a put it in the lot for pick up and then I realized it had no oil, so I filled it and it was in the fleet for 200,000 miles. so oil does cling and interference like oil cap off and dipstick out is a good idea.

People have been dry installing oil filters since they began putting them on engines. When you drain your oil you're not draining every drop of oil out of your engine. Your bearings and everything else still has oil on it. Generally you warm the engine up at least some and get oil pumped through the engine which also helps with getting sludge and debris out of the pan. Even if you don't warm up the engine/oil there is oil on the internal moving parts at least enough to protect the parts from damage for the one or two seconds it takes to fill the filter. Many older engines had filters that mounted horizontally or at an angle which prevented being able to put oil in the filter without losing all or most of it during install. Some engines like BMW have top up side down filters so there is no way to prefill them. A lot of filters today are next to impossible to even get to without having to tip, twist and turn them and have three opposing. You'd be wearing most of the prefill oil.

@SeanBZA 19 күн бұрын

Plus any long standing the oil will empty from the galleries, and at start up the top will be dry, and even filters with inlet and outlet anti drain valves will not help, though they at least do minimise the volume of drained oil to that in the galleries alone, as the filter stays full.

@riaanlouw1874 19 күн бұрын

And a few cars have the filters mounted upside down, near the top of the engine. Try pre-filling them.

@legionofanon 19 күн бұрын

Remote oil filter kit enters the chat

@MattExzy 19 күн бұрын

I just prefill my filter for convenience sake - I find I can hit the F mark on the stick first go, start the engine and it's still at that point without needing to top off - because that volume of empty filter is taken up by the prefill. But that's also because it's a vertical upward facing filter, I imagine it'd be impossible on any other orientation. Anywho, that's the only reason I prefill - inherent laziness.

@johnb1658 Күн бұрын

I guess you never heard cam gears grinding and timing chains rattling like crazy at startup from an empty filter when it starts! There is a bmw engine that the engineers claim the bearing failure was caused by dry start condition after oil changes. It’s worth filling the filter when it’s possible.

@jdesaavedra0432 19 күн бұрын

I've only filled filters on hydrostatic systems because not doing so introduces excessive air into the system. No engine runs without oil when installing a new filter. The new filter fills in a small fraction of a second and it is not on the suction side. Go ahead and knock yourself out pre-filling inverted, horizontal, and cartridge filters. Also all euro style filters, including Chrysler, drain each time the engine stops. Geesh--I've only been doing this since the 1960s.

@jimmyaber5920 19 күн бұрын

I have never seen an engine have a problem from dry installed filter. Years back as a Buick mechanic, guys that filled filters would have a Buick V8 not build oil pressure and rattle. The simple fix was to remove filter, add an extra quart of oil to make pump lift be 1/2 inch or less and crank engine over until oil pushed out at filter base. Install filter and it would be fine again.

If they can get processed down and put high quality materials into one, I'd consider it. But if I were going to use it in any real capacity, I'm going for an older Ford. The first truck I ever drove was a 1948 F1. Dad sold it to a collector because it was in solid condition, and the vacuum wipers and old tube radio still worked. Only 100hp but it was built to last. We have had Ford trucks in my family from the 1948, to as new as 1999. In contrast we had 2 gm trucks. A 64 Chevy half ton, 4 speed with a 283, and an old grain truck. A 1 ton dually gmc with a 5 speed and a 305 v6. Gas hog from hell, but it was more reliable than the sunrise. Sold the gmc to an old farmer and he did a frame off restoration and its a beautiful candy red with oak planks and side boards on the bed. Super single rear tires and all LED lights, inside and out. Air conditioning from vintage air. This is the truck that runs in the local parades and his tailgating truck. He also bought my old hodaka combat wombat and 2 triumph motorcycle engines. I love it when I see a vehicle my family sold to someone with the resources to save those classics. If we could only convince the general population to do the same, but scrap steel is going for big money and probably going to China. Not enough people care enough to check on that. Makes me kinda sad.

I was hoping that you do the customer a favor and add some grease or never sneeze to the belly ban bolts. Other than that, as usual a great job Ray!

quick comment on skid shield bolts in the salt tundra. Always dip in grease before reattaching to frame. they won't rust in.

If the oil you sell is so dang superior, why is the extra additives used? Or needed?

@bcyoung88 19 күн бұрын

It looks like there is an access door in the center of the skidplate for oil change access? Always better to remove it and inspect, but might be good for quicker services. You should have antisiezed the skid plate hardware since you know it's going back north...

It’s like an aircraft mechanic. They have labels or flags to remind them that something needs to be done beforehand. So pulling the dipstick and putting the oil cap over the hood latch is awesome. 👍

While I don't really have a preference of prefilling vs not prefilling an oil filter, I find the argument about contaminants a bit skewed by the fact that a lot of oil filters come without a plastic wrap. Just a cardboard box that isn't sealed, rattling around, collecting dust, possible bits of cardboard, and anything else that might have slipped inside.

Here's another thing to think about. When your car sits overnight (or for more than one day, if it's not your daily driver) the oil settles down into the pan, well a good portion of it, some is still held up in the valve cover area around the rockers, etc. so since some of the oil doesn't into the pan, there's always some oil in the system to prevent dry starts after settling overnight, or even multiple days. The oil pump is mechanical, not electronic like a fuel pump... if the couple of seconds was a critical thing, then you'd need to pre-oil your engine prior to starting, which people don't do. The only way I'd see it as an issue is if you removed the engine, took the oil pan off and drained it, then the valve covers, etc. and flipped the engine over and drained it that way ... then you'd want to pour some oil in to lube it prior to re-firing the engine.

As a ford tech the belly pan/ skid plate on the Mavrick is split so u dont have to remove the front part from the front facia. There are two bolts forward of the seam, the lower/rearward part of the belly pan is slotted just loosen and slide back exposes drain plug and filter.

My father had a garage in Central Africa. He had a customer who would send his Citroen 900 miles, on the back of a heavy duty truck, for every service. Truck needed because the roads in the wet season (half the year) were impassable for any passenger vehicle, even the Deux Cheval, with it's impressive off road handling. You are not going to drive when the mud is deeper than the height of the vehicle, and going off road involved a few axes to remove the trees, and possibly blasting as well, for the more obstinate ironwood and other hard wood trees. Dry season you has dry rutted road, which is why so much went via rail. Freight in very cheap, deadheading on the cars coming in to load up on copper anodes for export. Now they go via truck, and come down to South Africa to get to port.

I do this too and i only change the oil in my own cars leave something unhooked etc as a reminder that it's no oil in it despite the fact i don't do anything else but sit around and wait till its drained then refill it. But i do like the redundancy for the just in case one time i somehow end up being taken away from the current task then come back to it and forget it.
