I trick I use when removing the oil filter is use a zip lock baggie. Cover the filter inside the baggie so when you remove it the oil drips inside it.

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

That's a good idea!

@1991pony Месяц назад

What a good idea, I never would have thought of that. I'll try that on my next oil change. Thanks!

@mchristr Месяц назад

After 50 years of tinkering with cars (25 years in the car business) my friends assume I'm some sort of petroleum expert. When asked what oil I use the answer is always "whatever is on sale at the local auto parts store." I spend the money on a quality filter.

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

LOL me too!

My first 5.0 oil change, I did not drain the front sump (didn’t even notice it), and wondered why I was showing full at 1 quart left over. As an aside, it showed over full from the previous owner/shop. Now I know better. My preference, is to do a “clear flood mode” before actually starting the engine. (Works for most of my vehicles), it builds pressure faster and safer imo.

That's where the extra bracing was placed on vert. OCD tip: pre-fill/partial-fill the filter to get pressure quicker. PS- recommend Lucas power steering fluid first for any steering noise/issue.

@CollideFan1 Месяц назад

I worked in the oil change business for 12 years, so I know a bit about it. 😉 Use Valvoline synthetic oils and fluids in all of my vehicles. Mustang gets changed once a year, lucky if I put 4,000 miles on it. Living in the rust belt of the USA that car is parked in the winter. The truck gets changed once a year, put 4-5000 a year. I don't have the luxury of a lift so I have to jack the Mustang up to do anything underneath it.

Thanks for sharing!

@chantalbanon7185 Месяц назад

Helpful hint about the drain plugs. In 91, they changed. So the drain plugs in early 91 are different than the plugs in later 91's. I found out the hard way.😂 life is funny that way.

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

Thanks for the info!

@HicksHouseVideos Месяц назад

My first rebuilt engine, I doubled o-ringed on the first oil change 🤦. Five quarts on the floor with in seconds.

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

LOL!!! I've only ever done it once too!!

@CalypsoCoyote Месяц назад

Learned how to change my oil from a guy who was a shop manager but also handy. He recommended when the oil was drained to start the car and turn it off immediately to get any last oil out.

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

Oh wow really?

@jesseworkman4418 Месяц назад

I always partially fill my filter with some oil so it builds pressure faster. You obviously cannot fill it all the way or it spillls out when installing but you get oil pressure faster.

Great video Brother! 👊🏾

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

Thx buddy!

Yup!

@survivethrive2468 Месяц назад

Hey Gary thanks for continuing putting out great fox videos! Awesome 👌 👏 👍 🍺. Are u still running the stock steel drive shaft on your 91 vert? Or u running a aluminum one? I'm having issues with rubbing and clearance issues with a aftermarket aluminum one. Not sure if it's my old square boxy Flowmaster muffs or parking brake cables above or the flanges where the h pipe and muffs connect? U had any experience with this. Thanks again buddy! Your vert looks great 👍 man! #vertgang 😎

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

Thanks buddy! I am still running the stock drive shaft in both cars. You might have the main cable from the brake handle that T's off to each side rubbing on the drive shaft. I just had to trim one up the other day on the Average fox as it was rubbing on the driveshaft

@ChuckG92 Месяц назад

I always prefill my filters

@nunya2814 Месяц назад

Customer of mine has a nearly identical vert, same exterior color same interior colors, only differences are its an 87(43k original miles)and the top is white. Crazy to see one in as good of condition and nearly identical to one thousands of miles away lol

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

Thats awesome!

@chrislowe8085 Месяц назад

used to do my ownoil changed on the fox but it was always with 1979-1995 MUSTANG 5.0 MOTORCRAFT OIL FILTER FL 1A love too see that oil filter on the car. guess your using the same 1 without watching the rest. so your fox is it wild stawberry? i used to fill the oil filter with oil too is that better?

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

Yes wild strawberry. I don't fill the filter because I don't like spilling. If it was a vertical mount then I probably would

@shafferjoe1962 Месяц назад

I am wanting to install a remote oil filter. Would you suggest this? If yes, any brand that you like and location that works best?

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

Sorry, I've never looked into them

@marshalldouglas3743 Месяц назад

Gary : why not fill the oil filter with fresh oil , before installation ?

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

The only vehicles I ever do that on are ones that have a vertically mounted oil filter. Its very hard to do that and not spill oil all over the place on a SBF

@sstjacques Месяц назад

How about doing this like we all do it.. on harbor freight ramps and tips with keeping them from sliding out when doing a rear wheel drive Mustang. 😆

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

LOL!!! Been there done that bud! The hoist definitely makes filming a lot easier...

@haroldcollier7650 Месяц назад

What are the small cross members??

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

They came on the convertibles

@John.Flower.Productions Месяц назад

I did not see you remove the magnet from the old filter and place it on the new filter. Why?

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

There is no magnet...

@1991pony Месяц назад

I noticed you said "My '91 convertible", not "My Mom's '91 convertible." Hmm. Also, you didn't really mention anything about oil change intervals. I do mine every 5,000 on the 5,000. 50,000, 55,000, 60,000 and so on. It's a summer time toy so cold weather driving doesn't enter into it. What are your thoughts?

@KASLCustoms Месяц назад

LOL!!! I'll never live that one down. It is still the plan to get it to her 😉
