Question 1

How to service and repair the oil pan on Mercury Cougar?

Accepted Answer

As a first step to service and repair the oil pan one should disconnect the battery ground cable and remove the heat shield. First reverse the upper bolt/nut followed by removing the coolant hose bracket and the engine lifting eye. Then extract the engine oil dipstick tube from its position. The next step involves taking out both the bracket and lower bolts next to the tube/hose (AX). To remove the TWC from the exhaust manifold service technicians should detach the TWC while raising and supporting their vehicle, after that divest the Heated Oxygen Sensor connection and drain the engine oil before reinstalling and tightening the drain plug. You should remove the oil pan bolts before using a sharp spatula to gently separate the lower crankcase from the oil pan by tapping the drain plug with a rubber hammer. During this process ensure that the mating faces remain undamaged. The first step for installation requires clear faces from old scaler free of oil and gasket residue so you can screw in two M6 x 20 studs to guide the oil pan. Place 3 mm of silicone gasket and sealant on the oil pan mating face before fitting the oil pan using new drain plug with oil seal. Use the specified sequence to apply torque to the bolts by performing the first stage to 6 Nm then the second stage to 10 Nm. Begin by inserting the TWC onto the exhaust manifold studs while also connecting it to the bracket then plugging in the H02S electrical connector and hooking it into the rubber mounting before securing it against the exhaust manifold. Fasten the TWC retaining clip before putting the bolt and lowering the vehicle. The TWC installation process requires mounting it on the exhaust manifold followed by heat shield addition while inserting the oil level indicator tube into the cylinder block and placing the coolant hose bracket along with the engine lifting eye for mounting. The installation process requires first combining the upper bolt with the nut while installing lower bolts before attaching the bracket to Air Conditioning (A/C) line. Place engine oil inside the reservoir before reaching the specified levels based on design guidelines. The vehicle requires 16 km (10 miles) of driving or more to adapt its strategy after battery reconnection because various abnormal drive symptoms may appear during the relearning process. At the end of the work phase you should verify all fluid levels while making necessary adjustments and ensure vacuum hose and wiring connections are properly secured with cable ties.

Question 2

How to service and repair the oil pan on Mercury Mariner?

Accepted Answer

Service and repair of an oil pan begins with positioning a vehicle on a hoist with it set to neutral. Detach the Air Cleaner (ACL) outlet pipe before you loosen the 2 bellhousing-to-engine bolts by 5 mm (0.19 in) which must not exceed this distance to protect the transmission. When working on AWD vehicles you should loosen the 2 RH engine-to-bellhousing bolts together with the 2 RH engine bracket-to-Power Transfer Unit (PTU) bolts to the same amount. After removing the 7 retainers along with the LH splash shield the technician should loosen the 2 LH bellhousing-to-engine bolts. Front Wheel Drive (FWD) drivers should loosen between 1 manual transaxle or 2 automatic transaxle RH engine-to-bellhousing bolts by 5 mm (0.19 in). Drain the engine oil while removing both bellhousing-to-oil pan bolts together with the two oil pan-to-bellhousing bolts because this action allows you to move the transaxle backward by 5 mm (0.19 in). Reinstall the drain plug before tightening it to 28 Nm (21 lb-ft). Disconnect the combination of 4 bolts joining the engine front cover to the oil pan while also removing the 13 bolts holding the oil pan. A plastic scraping tool should replace metal scrapers for cleaning all sealing surfaces during installation. Any delay in securing the oil pan after sealant treatment requires cleaning of the sealing area and waiting for it to dry. The installation process requires a 2.5 mm (0.09 in) strand of silicone gasket and sealant placed between the engine block and oil pan as well as the front cover of the oil pan. Mount the oil pan onto the engine block while keeping the bolts loose at first. Tighten the 4 engine front cover to oil pan bolts to 10 Nm (89 lb-in) before progressing with the oil pan bolt tightening at 25 Nm (18 lb-ft) using the specified bolt order. The tightening sequence for FWD vehicles includes alternately tightening 1 LH bellhousing-to-engine and 1 RH engine-to-bellhousing bolts to slide transaxle and engine together until they reach 48 Nm (35 lb-ft). Within the AWD configuration alternate tightening the 1 RH engine-to-PTU bracket bolt with the 1 LH bellhousing-to-engine bolt then torque the PTU bracket bolt to 45 Nm (33 lb-ft) and the LH bellhousing bolt to 48 Nm (35 lb-ft). Install the two bellhousing-to-oil pan bolts as well as the two oil pan-to-bellhousing bolts while torquing them to 48 Nm (35 lb-ft). Reinstall the LH splash shield by securing seven retainers to 9 Nm (80 lb-in) and fasten the 2 RH engine-to-bellhousing bolts to 48 Nm (35 lb-ft) in addition to tightening the 2 upper bellhousing-to-engine bolts to 48 Nm (35 lb-ft). For the completion install the ACL outlet pipe and then add clean engine oil into the engine.
