Oil Consumption FIX 2019 Ford F150 - MUST HAVE Modification!

Watch as I Install the JLT 3.0 Oil Separator On My 2019 Ford F150 5.0L V8!
I believe this part should be something that comes on the truck from factory.
Having this separator is a great way to prevent dirty, nasty oil from recirculating back into our engines! Especially with the 5.0L already having pesky issues such as oil consumption/engine ticks. I have experienced minor oil consumption so far in my F150 and I am hoping that this part will help reduce that consumption! Go get yours from AmericanTrucks now!!

A Ford Performance Oil Separator is a much cleaner installation but you need to make a bracket to mount it on the side of the battery box. They come for Mustangs but work fine on the pickups. I've had one on since the first week of owning my 2018 bought in Oct of 2017. I check the sump every 3ooo miles and never found over an ounce of oil. Mine has been a part of the excessive oil consumption test twice and just used under a quart in 3000 miles so no engine replacement for me. My installation is also on You Tube. Any oil vapor I can keep out of the intake runners is a plus for me no matter what people say on the net. There are also separators on my wife's 2014 Honda civic and it too has oil in it every time its checked.

[@williamgleaves1954]

THey make an updated dipstick for the 2018 5.0 F-150 so i assume will be for the 2019 5.0. Sounds silly but the new dipstick is for a slighly lower oil level which I assume results in less air in the oil and maybe less crankcase pressure. SO I'd keep running the separator but get the updated dipstick so every little thing can help. hte new dipstick had me adding about 1 pint less on on oil change. I went iwth the Mishimoto separator which didnt include the hose and I had to rob the old fittings from teh factor hose. SO if i did it again, I'd use the JLT system like you did.

[@rshettle123]

The primary cause are the low tension, along with plasma arc coated cylinder walls in place of being sleeved in steel. Not the PCV nor the suspicion of being overfilled and why you're given a longer Dipstick. The longer Dipstick only gives you a large window for loss. The full mark is the same height. The pcm flash is the only thing that may or may not affect a difference. Plasma arc coating is a manufacturer's means of saving costs. It's a huge blunder. Ather makes and modles are experiencing the same problem. Saving gas was the resson for lowering the tension on the rings. Less friction but it made it easier for oil to get sucked into the cylinder to become burned. Thank the EPA and CAFE. They affectly sacrificed the environment for a little gas savings. This is why it's such a blunder by the government and the manufacturer.

[@garrettglauser8824]

josh it’s a defective design from Ford, they haven’t admitted it yet, but they will. They didn’t sleeve the cylinders properly, or used cheap piston rings thus causing oil to burn in them while driving, period. No software update will fix this. I have a 20 year old F150 that doesn’t burn a drop of oil, there is no excuse for this. Ford purposely sold defective transmissions in their sedans for years, until they were sued and had to buy them back, so don’t put this past them either. Ever since they switched to the aluminum bodies, they started making less profit on their trucks due to the cost of aluminum compared to steel. They are trying to cut every corner they can to make more money on their trucks, rather than just switch back to a Steele body like everyone else. I wouldn’t touch a new F-150 with a ten foot pole anymore. The only decent trucks are the F-250s now. My advice to people is to buy them over the F-150, unless they don’t need to tow, then buy the Tundra. Breaks my heart to say it but it’s true

A catch can, although useful on the 3.5 and 2.7 turbocharged engines is pretty useless on a 2018 and up 5.0. It will NOT stop oil consumption. Color of used oil can be dependent on oil brand, condition of engine and the brand and type of fuel you use.

I don’t see how the transmission would affect the engine’s oil consumption, but I am familiar with an “off throttle” rattle the truck makes. Mine does it when cold. Also, occasionally it shifts a little jerky and sometimes rough when first started if I don’t let it warm up.

[@curtis1951]

@@Eliyourcarguy Because the transmission forces the engine to run at too low rpm. Causing low oil flow to areas that rely on oil pressure to operate like the cam phasors. (Cam phasor rattle) also a more serious problem is poor piston sealing caused by bad rings and cylinder bores. Ford changed the cylinder linings for 2018. It's not fixable and Ford has replaced so many 5.0L's that the factory couldn't keep up. They still haven't changed anything on the 2020's.

[@chasefeller1279]

The oil consumption issue issue is due to the way the lined the cylinders. Instead of sleeve liners like the previous 5.0 they used a plasma arc something something method to save money. Problem is the material is breaking down either immediately or will eventually. No catch can is gonna fix then issue because then issue is internal. The piston rings can’t seal properly. Essentially if you are burning a lot of oil, then your engine is shot. Problem is that its brand new. But id say keep taking it to the dealer and eventually they will have to replace the block. Of course the new block will have the same issue too until they redesign the engine. I see a class action lawsuit in the future. Sucks for ppl who are outside their power train warranty because with the 18-20 5.0s its not a matter of if the lining will fail but when. Some have it immediately, others wont have it til a few years down the road. But these engines aren’t gonna make it very long any way you look at it. Shame on ford for not only going cheap and ruining a good design, but for not acknowledging the problem and implementing a fix. (Their fix is to put a longer dipstick in the engine so you end up putting more oil in the engine which is also bad for it.)

[@christopherrichards1025]

Longer dipstick means you put in less oil, not more. FORD realized the dipsticks were to short to begin with and the techs were overfilling the crankcase.

Plasma arc has been around for years. It is nothing new. Some are saying most are just breaking in at 50k and the issue is resolving itself. Time will tell. The 2018 is five years old now where are the blown engines. So far all the oil consumption has been under 50k where are the motors with 75k and 100k on them I want to hear from those guys.

[@racekar80]

Aluminum blocks are not the problem, most import cars have had aluminum blocks for decades without cylinder liners. Porsche engines are all aluminum blocks without liners. The issue is a mismatch between the plasma liner and the piston rings during break in. Some engines will seat the rings properly and the oil consumption will stop. Others may not, unknown right now what really causes the issue. I for one think they need to be run hard for the rings to seat initially.

[@BlueOvals24]

@@garrettglauser8824 Honestly I feel like Ford's QC is on par with Toyota's, especially given how much more expensive Toyota's are.

[@garrettglauser8824]

Neutrally Neutral Toyota trucks are actually cheaper than ford. Base model tundra is about 31K, with a 5.7 engine, and they hold their value better, you’re looking at almost 40k for a F150 with similar features. You simply don’t see modern ford trucks with 300k miles on them like the old ones. I have a 2000 F150 4.6 that still runs great. I assure you you will not see 2020 F150s on the road in 2040.

[@BlueOvals24]

@@garrettglauser8824 Base model Tundra is actually 33k and base F150 is 28k. And you have got to be completely ignorant if you don't think Ford's can make it past 300k miles. I've already seen some 2011 5.0 trucks past 250k and still running smooth. I've even seen some 5.4 trucks make it close to 300k and those were notoriously bad engines. I'm fully confident that the 2011-2017 5.0 and the 2013+ Ecoboost engines will make it well past 300k miles. Another thing to note is that the vast majority of people don't even keep their vehicles beyond 100k these days, sometimes even less. Sitting inside both trucks, the Toyota doesn't feel like it has much higher quality materials than Ford. Then they also have these very tacky and cheap feeling knobs for the radio and climate controls. Where as even in the Ford's most basic interior, those knobs feel a little more premium than the Toyota's. If we were talking about early 2000's trucks, I would agree completely that Toyota built the better truck. But today and even for the last 10 years, I couldn't recommend a Toyota over a Ford, not even for the resale value.

[@garrettglauser8824]

Neutrally Neutral I agree about the older fords. I’m talking about the last three years. Some genius at Ford decided to build an aluminum engine block on the 5.0, and people with literally 500 miles on their trucks are burning a quart of oil. The new ten speed transmission is also already in a class action suit, and is notorious for issues. I would buy an older used Ford but until Ford pulls their head out of their butts I would never buy a new one. Fords base is 28k, but that’s for a single cab with a v6. The base tundra comes with a fairy roomy crew can and v8 standard. I agree the interior is cheap, but the tundra has been ranked the most reliable truck for the last ten years for a reason. Mechanically it is just more reliable.

[@Mr.Beastforpresident]

You do realize if Fords Engineers are smart enough to engineer an engine that they’re completely capable of engineering an oil catch can? There’s a reason why these aren’t factory. But then that brings us back to Ford making a better truck than competition.

[@UANL07]

Is sad to see that ford wait that the people spend our own money to fix they engineers errors , they need recall It

[@Eliyourcarguy]

Very true!

[@dalemessenger3406]

Why would anyone use Penzoil of any kind in any Engine Period!

[@accessvikas]

It won't help as engine is burning oil through piston rings. It's aluminium block to blame. Just advise of anyone os buying F150 buy the 3.0 diesal it's has a iron block and there is not much flex in it. Rest all are shit to be honest. If push them too hard they will start consuming oil.

[@Brian_195]

The 2.7 EcoBoost has an iron block.

[@markasher1920]

Its not the fix for the oil consumption . Wish people would stop broadcasting this

[@mjuberian]

5.0's are now junk.. sad...

[@Rev.DavidJTowns]

my 2017 is fantastic -- not a single issue with 105 000 kms on it -- i almost bought the 2020 yesterday but after learning about the oil issues i decided not too.

[@milesmayhem5440]

The Truth I was looking at the 18’s and 19’s, but now looking at the the 17’s due to what you’re talking about. How is it off road? Forest roads and logging roads. I’m looking to get on for everyday driving and work.

I got a 2018 not one issue have over 50 k on it now

This is the Ford "TSB" Technical Service Bulletin: static.nhtsa.gov/odi/tsbs/2019/MC-10169811-0001.pdf . I bought my 2020 in 2021 and just found out about this oil consumption issue which also I have. Thank you for your video!

[@Dave-tw9ib]

good bye warranty

[@josephvellan6094]

All this big money for these trucks. And you have to spend more money just to make it reliable like a 20 year old truck. I have a 2001 f150 286,000 miles and never had to do any of this pathetic bullshit to it. Just change the oil put gas in it and regular maintenance thats it. Sometimes new technology. Is not that much better.
