Service Procedure
NOTE: There are internal positive crankcase ventilation (PCV) system check valves built into some oil pans and valve covers. Follow the Service Procedure to make sure replacement parts are properly chosen to maintain an operable PCV system.
1. Inspect the valve cover design around the ignition coils. Does the coil location have the extended plastic protective ribbing as shown in red? (Figure 1)
Figure 1
(1). Yes – proceed to Step 3.
(2). No – proceed to Step 2.
2. Replace the valve covers. Refer to the procedures in the 2015-2017 F150 Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-01A, Removal and Installation > Valve Cover LH and Valve Cover RH.
3. Replace the oil pan. Refer to the various WSM years as required.
(1). 2015-2017 F-150 WSM, Section 303-01A, Removal and Installation > Oil Pan, Removal, Steps 1-32.
(2). 2018 F-150 WSM, Section 303-01A, Removal and Installation > Oil Pan, Removal, Steps 31 and 32.
