Very helpful! I bought the stuff from LMR and did it myself. Thank you for the help! Customer for life!!!

[@Ricky_Rocha]

Those long in depth videos are great to watch. Keep ‘em coming. Very educational and fun to watch. Even though most of us here already know how to change our own oil….still great to watch.

[@latemodelrestoration]

Thanks for the feedback, Ricardo. -Landan

Just did my GT500 oil change today. These cars require a bit more attention during this procedure. Well done.

[@Josh_GT500]

Thanks for this video! Will be giving my 2022 its first oil change myself near the end of this month.

[@DownShifting76]

Great video and beautiful GT500!

[@77teahupoo]

Great video now I need to do mine oil on my 2021 gt500

[@nitrokyosho]

Very nice video my friend

[@mikebrown2425]

That’s more involved than the GT or Ecoboost but not too bad. My 1999 F350 with the 7.3 diesel takes 15 quarts and then about a half quart for the HPOP. Siphoning the old oil out of the HPOP is the tedious part. Good video 👍

[@patmilton258]

Thanks for schooling me up - this was an excellent video demonstration

[@latemodelrestoration]

Thanks for watching and for the sincere feedback! We appreciate it! -Landan

You change the oil exactly the same way I do. 😀👍

[@latemodelrestoration]

Slow and meticulous! It’s the only way to do it! 👍🏻 -Landan

[@MindyLou]

My car looks like it’s Alittle over the oil line, is that bad?

[@jacoborodriguezcouto1270]

What oil recomended for Mustang Mach1 2022? Amsoil 5w30 signature?

[@latemodelrestoration]

A lot of folks like Amsoil oil and like it. I've never used it so I can't give my experience. All these years, I've had great luck with either Mobil 1 full synthetic or Motorcraft with good oil analysis. 5w-30 is the correct viscosity for a 2021-2023 Mach 1. -Landan

[@joziksk4323]

Why 5w50 when its on oil cap 5w20?

[@latemodelrestoration]

The cap doesn't say 5w20, it says 5w50. -Landan

[@TierOperator]

11:00 That's just extra man. You don't have to do that.

[@dnlescalante73]

They take that much!? Wow!

Said the Same about yo mom

And to think Ford could have put the filter canister under the hood like the last two GM vehicles of mine have had.

[@I-di-nt-do-nuff-in-]

Why doesn’t the GT 500 get the plastic oil pan

[@latemodelrestoration]

I'm sure Ford found some stuff during their research and development that made them decide on an aluminum oil pan. There isn't much info available as to why. The marketing material simply states, "A high-capacity, 11-quart oil pan mounts to the engine and dual-clutch transmission for added strength and reduced vibration. Its patented active baffling channels oil to the center sump during extreme acceleration, braking and cornering, keeping oil where it’s needed."

Oil pan on the Predator is 'structural'
