Summary
SSM 47922 – Various Vehicles – 2.7L/3.0L EcoBoost Engine – Oil Filter Service Tip
When servicing the oil filter on vehicles equipped with a 2.7L or 3.0L EcoBoost engine it is critical to inspect the oil filter housing center stem to verify is not separated or damaged. If the center stem is damaged or separated from the housing this will result in oil flow through the reservoir drain port causing low engine oil pressure and internal engine damage. If the filter housing stem is damaged or separated, the oil filter housing must be replaced. If the center stem is not damaged or separated, the O-ring seals on the stem and housing must be replaced each time the filter is serviced.
