It could happen. Mines a EB. I crack the filter and unscrew until it the oil starts running, it flows to the lowest point on the filter and straight down, although my FX4 is level when I change the oil.

After my third oil change I decided on modifying my skid plates with a ValvoMax M12-1.75 quick change valve and a 4" round cutout for my oil filter.

Hi Trailmaster, The cover came on the skid plate. It's nice because it just unclips and you slide it off.

Here's the ValvoMax for my FX4. I cut the skid plate a little which you can see outlined with white paint.

Thanks for the info. The mount looks robust enough.

Yep, can't use the rear hitch because I tow a 20' Lance travel trailer. The bed is full of wood. The trailer bumper is too weak. Don't care about the cost, just need something that will hold 125 lbs.

Hi, I can't tow my EB but was wondering if anybody used a baseplate as a, lets say removeable bicycle mount?

Hi Max, With the strut bar installed the round black thingy and the flex hose would rattle against the strut bar pulling my 19' Lance travel trailer. I had to also trim the engine cover around the black thingy. Your 2.0 badge is nice! Mike

Hi, do you think it's possible to make the DIY power plugs hot from remote start or possibly trailer power hot? That way I could charge my trailer battery without going outside.

Your right. My grandkid just missed having his head bonked. I got the strut right away after that happened.

If yer talking about the cover, it keeps the dust off the coils and looks cool. My with calls the cover fooferaw!

Mercury 2.0. I made the badge from 1/8 aluminum. The screw to hold it down was from leftover TV wall mount screws with a spacer I made to put under it.. The 2 ball mounts that were on the engine fit perfect. Thats all ya need tp hold it on. I got my cover on ebay from a Ford dealership

The materials were $77. I made the bar for fun but I also have a lathe. Yes it was worth it. The strut bar, Steeda rear sway bar, and Timbren rear springs with a 1/4" preload. The Mav really corners. 35mph corners @ 70, yahoo!

I didn't. What I do know is that pulling or pushing the rod front to back 1/4" causes the strut tower near the top to move inboard .0015. I don't know if thats per side as I can't set up 2 dial indicators at once. I don't have anyway to move the tower without the rod attached.

3/4" aluminum. I hope these pictures help. You have to make a bracket also

Hi, The Mercury 2.0 engine cover. 3/4" aluminum. I hope these pictures help. You have to make a bracket also

Wow, that is neat! Thanks for sharing.

I usually use Motorcraft oil semi-syn in the Fords, but the Pennzoil is about the same price, so why not.

Thats good to know. I've only changed the oil once but I'd like to go 7500, at least.

Also the oil life went down 5% in 200 miles which is about 4000 miles between oil changes.
