    Would it be possible to also do the oil pan gasket during this job or does the engine have to be removed? 1995 EB 351w

    Yes, it would be best to reconnect the transmission to the block and secure with bolts, then lift engine off the motor mounts, stick wooden blocks between the engine and motor mounts. With everything else out of the way the oil pan will slide out. I regretted not doing so, but had to complete the video. For the 351 you will have to remove the upper intake plenum to lift engine high enough.

    @@TheFixTechAlso, if I’m not mistaking; You need to remove the transmission shift linkage and even jack the transmission up slightly. The shroud will get removed as well. You have to be very careful when lifting the motor and keep good attention on the transmission cooler lines that you don’t over flex them or interfere. Once the bolts are off the pan you can slide it out only so much. Most people typically have to remove the oil pump that way the pan can slide out. It really is a disaster of a job and design. Great videos, keep up the good work.

    And yes, as you said with the 351 most people have no hope debolting exhaust. What many people have to unfortunately do is cut out the exhaust that runs under the pan and then either flange/clamp it back together. Or if you’re a good welder by all means lol! Some people take the whole manifold off… good luck with that out east.. I don’t even want to imagine how many bolts would just snap.

I've made the mistake myself of getting caught up in the process of fixing a driveshaft and forgetting this important step. Having a vehicle roll with you under it is no fun. Your videos have been very helpful and well done.

    Awesome video and very well detailed. Personally I would stay AWAY from the Teflon Seals and use a Rubber Seal with a Repair Sleeve. Teflon seals are notorious for cracking and degrading fast due to them being a much harder/stiffer material and they also like to gouge the crank shaft over time which is why 90% of the time you need a repair sleeve is due to the teflon seals eating into the crank.

  • @pauljanssen7594
    @pauljanssen75943 ай бұрын

    Ford notoriously for main seal leaks one has to do with excess main bearing clearance and the seals getting hard.

    Can you do a video of deleting all of the emissions canisters/ system? I have a 91 and want to remove all of that. But curious to see how you bypass the electronics and hardliners into the back of the engine. Also would help to clear out space in the engine bay of unnecessary parts.

  • @TheFixTech

    @TheFixTech

    4 ай бұрын

    My choice of preference to delete those hard liners is to upgrade the heads to ones that do not have those ports, otherwise you can simply plug the holes with a thermactor plug. If the stock engine is to be used then I do recommend keep the original emissions system for best MPGs and stock performance. Otherwise the best way to delete any emissions is to remove the components and tune the ecm.

    Is dropping the trans easier than lifting out the engine? The 5.8 in my 96 Bronco has good compression but has some pretty bad oil and coolant leaks. I have worked through several vacuum leaks (P1071/1074) but it still has a misfire in cyl 4, so I pulled both manifolds and having the injectors cleaned as we discussed. When it runs right, I was considering pulling the engine to replace the rear main, oil pan gasket, freeze plugs, exh manifolds, and hoses. Thanks

  • @TheFixTech

    @TheFixTech

    6 ай бұрын

    I would pull the engine out if you need to seal engine/coolant leaks as there are some freeze plugs that can be hard to reach. The trans does come out very smoothly if you are using a decent trans jack (like the one shown in the video). Make sure you have the correct ignition module for your truck.

    It’s a press on fit, must be tapped into place and does form a solid seal. I have used these a few times with no issues. The Teflon seal is a good choice as well.

    Is it an automatic or manual? If manual it is usually the throw out bearing. If an auto, remove the flexplate/torque converter cover, if the squeak is more prominent then torque converter would be a suspect. Check trans fluid for any burnt smell or shavings.
