Oill Filter Housing Gasket install: Fix oil leak & coolant leak Ford Mustang, F150 4.6L crown Vic 

My car has been leaking oil for over a year and I couldn't figure out from where with it being so dirty and grimey around that same exact area so now I think I know what it can be thanks for the video!

Glad to have you in the 2v Ford RU-vid world!! Definitely helping me save money and do lots of upgrades to my Mustang and Crown Vic. Thanks buddy 🫡

DUDE I LOVE THE "NEW EDGE" COMMUNITY!! I looked up oil leak and this is the first vid I watched and was exactly where my leak was coming from👍🏾thx a lot bro

Since you had to disconnect that lower hose and let some coolant drain out to remove the housing, that would be a great time to replace the hose itself. Also, these 4.6L engines really like that Motorcraft "Gold" coolant. The older green coolant will work, but the gold stuff is better for those aluminum heads and can go for a longer period between changes. Good video!

I checked the oil level in my L-TC engine this morning and man! The dipstick came out clean! I don't know how the engine's been running that long without enough oil but it was all caused by leak from the filter adapter. Do not ignore those oil spots under you car.

Messy business that! You got it done and made a video too. Nice job, informative video. I'll bet my sister wishes she had a brother like you.

Very good and detailed video. Perfect camera angles. 👌🏻

Very Helpful. Doing g this job Tomorrow morning on my 92 Lincoln town car.

Very informative. I thought this was a difficult task. Thanks😊

Awsome video thank's, love how you make it sound so easy and it was pretty simple 😊 thanks again 🙏

You haven't seen the leak in my Grand Marquis 😂

“Full blast heat”. “Drive with the heat on”. That should be fun today! 😂

Great mechanic work!!

Best DIY on gasket R&R. Thorough. Thx

Great vid got yourself another sub.

Great video, Same thing my 01 GT is doing.

Good video!! Going to do mine Monday.

2010 police interceptor is way harder. It's a nightmare. Have to remove the power steering as well , and manifold

Very nice presentation and helpful. Thanks for posting.

Exactly what I needed

Great video! Thank you for sharing!

Good pictures thanks for the video

The one on my 01 cobra was a pain i had to move the powersteering to get to the bolts

I got a 2003 f150 4.6 trying to put a gas on on the app on the oil filter housing how to do it I got a F-150 2003 4.6 I got leakage around the oil filter after I put a gasket on it how I go 🔙

Great job

Engine calls for 5w20 but you put 5w30. I do the same with my town car and grand marquis because I heard they were designed for 5w30 but later changed to get like 1/16th of a mile more per gallon.

gracias por compartir este buen video; para el reemplazo y correcta instalación del empaque de base filtro de oil; bendiciones

Just to let you all know if you have the 5.4 3v engine with f150 you really don't need to do the fill the coolent like he did because it will work the air bubbles out in the coolent jug and also keep the unit pressurized at the same time. If it is totally full like that you may get it to full then that would be bad as well i would think. If you did not drive it to long you could turky baster it out down to the line on the coolent jug then put your cap on but check it later when it is cool to see if you need to take out more. My f150 is notorious for this gasket to fail, so i just had to replace mine and this was a buger from hell to get to those 10mm bolts, i had to use extensions and elbow joint sockets to get to them. My old gasket looked like his as well, so it needed it, also if your car over heats or a hose bust or you been leaking coolent and or the coolent jug over flows then replace the radiator cap because the cap is set to release pressurized air at 16psi and that is just my psi, yours could be diffrent. Thanks for the great video, you did great with the footage so that we all got a good look at where them bolts were at, it is a really tough job so your sister better has made you a good sammich lol!

Good video and easy

Great video preciate it bro

Great video

So failure of this seal can result in both oil and coolant leaks. .... I've been sure that I've been seeing oil leaking,, but.... I've also been sure than I'm seeing dirty water leaking as well.

Is this a known problem with the 99-04 mustang 3.8L too?

Where are you located. Taking any side jobs 😁. My 99 cobra looks like that gt from oil leaking

Maybe draining the coolant at the radiator drain plug would have been a decent idea

Thanks for the vid

Was this a voice over? I didn't hear you yell or cuss one time. It is truly a frustrating job. Not too bad with a battery powered 3/8 ratchet and some super long extensions though. I had to use a flex ujoint impact 13mm like they sell in several different sizes from harbor freight. Good tip on the gasket maker.

Will doing this on a 2009 Mercury Grand Marquis be any different?

Any ideas on why oil is getting in my coolant reservoir but not in oil pan?

I swapped that housing into my terminator when the oil cooler started leaking.

My 2V looks nearly as bad, time for a new gasket, hopefully it isn't as pitted

I need to do this on my Crown Vic and was hoping to find a way to avoid some of the mess. I guess not... 'F^*('.

Yeah 2003 f150 4.6 I got a leak around the oil filter I'll take the oil filter housing off 📴

I need help! Plz! I just did this on my 1998 mustang GT. It has the oil cooler. I took the oil cooler off first and then the adapter plate and replaced the gasket. When I went and started my car, EVERY BIT of oil that I had just put in the car and was in the oil pan started pouring out from underneath the car around the area I was working. And I mean POURING out. Like all 6 quarts

so my mustang is the same as yours it has leak like inside near close the engine oil it leaks just the antifreeze how do i fix that problem do i weld it? or what i have no idea what to do

My oil has been looking a little muddy lately, I was told coolant was leaking somewhere and making my oil muddy.. Should this be the fix for My problem?

Where you having any oil in the overflow tank

Hey Danny, awesome video, like always. Just wondering why you use 5w-30 oil instead of the recommended 5w-20? Thanks.

How much coliant did you add at the end? I did this and can only fit 2gallons back in. I did everything you did. I was expecting to add about double that when refilling. I'm not sure how much came out....now that I think about it probably was 4gal? Thanks!

How did you realize it was that seal and not head gasket?

Danny I have a 2001 cobra that needs that oil filter adapter changed is it basically done the same way as the 2 vavle

2006. 4:6 motor

This is so good. How do You get So good at editing? See ya bud xd

Would this just cause straight oil leak, oil leaking into coolant, coolant leaking into oil or any of above-mentioned

My little Allen head screw that faces down has been seeping. I put some thread tape around it and it pissed five quarts in mere minutes. What is it sealed in there with? Looks like a red goopy thread locker?

I’m not sure if you did but did you drain any coolant? I know i should expect a oil change but as far as the coolant you just add some after it’s all put together?

What happens when this seal goes bad?

Oh man I'm an idiot. I did this before watching and I'm going to have to redo the whole thing. I take it that it's super important to clean the mating surfaces extremely well before putting on new gasket? I scraped the block with razor and that was it... and now it's leaking coolant. Are there any torque specs for the 4 bolts?

Do 3.9 v6 have oil cooler or is this just the v8s?

Great job! Do you happen to have the part number for the gasket you used?

Is this the same gasket for the Mach 1?

Did you torque the bolts down or just hand tight?

Did that caused the timing chain rattling

I think I have the same problem with my 2001 Bullitt. How much in parts and labor do think this will cost today?

Could this cause oil getting into overflow reservoir?

Couldn’t I just drain the oil and coolant to avoid them mixing together?

damn that was leaking a good amount of oil
