ive got a 5.4 and when it sits on a incline it leaks oil out , i beleive its comin out around the filter but ive replace it twice and now its leaking antifreeze but cannot tell were from any ideas in whats wrong
is there a diagram or pik or what it looks like on that motor ?
I don't have my DVD with me right now,but I can tell you it's behind the PS pump,and has 4-10mm headed bolts that secure it to the block.You'll need to pull the oil filter and drain the coolant to swap the gasket,and depending on how much room is available-you might need to pull the PS pump loose from the block to get it out to clean the gasket surface. It's a Nitrile rubber bead type gasket,so there's no need for RTV,and that makes for an easy repair-the worst part is getting to it.I'd suggest that you go ahead and swap the lower radiator hose while you're in there-you'll already have the lower hose attachement point off and the coolant will be drained too.

yeah but ive never paid 89$ for a hose and i was told dealer item only thank god im a car wholesaler and have a account at ford here
The lower radiator hose is not a dealer only item. And I can bet you that the dealer you got it from hung it to you.You'd be suprised at how much they mark up the parts even to "wholesale" accounts.

well thats what i thought I called napa and they said nope then oreillys and said nope and i know its crazy the stealerships will put it to ya
Autozone...in stock and only $44.00,and that's just one example.I regularly argue with the idiots at parts stores over parts that I know they have on the shelf.
