Yeah I’m just looking to see if the motor is healthy or do I have a problem.I’m older now and have time to do my own oil changes and actually look at what is in the oil.I used to just drain it and change filter and put oil in it lol.The car runs perfect no problems and love it.I probably had...

I used a magnet and none of the particles you see will stick to it there was just a couple of small pieces that did but that was it.

It just seems weird that none of that was caught in the filter.There is a thread on the 6g forum from awhile ago on a gt 350 that had quite a bit more and I think it turned out to be some kind of additive that was added that gets suspended in the oil.Hopefully that is the case here but probably...

Just went and took some pics of the drain pan what left after I drained the oil back into the containers and also a pic of the filter cut open.

Had to buy a plumbers wrench to get the catch can undone.Catch can is about 1/4 full maybe 3 or 4 ounces not seeing anything particles in the oil in it.Also looked down in the oil fill with a light not that it means anything but the part of the chains I can see look like new and clean no sludge...

No service records ought from a used car dealer.Records on carfax when I bought it showed roughly 5k oil changes.I might have to try and look the car fax backup but the last oil change was done at a performance shop instead of a ford dealer or an oil change place.Not sure why they would of taken...

Thanks for all the info I appreciate it.If I get a chance today I’ll add picks of my drain pan pretty much looks like about the same amount of material as in your pic of your drain pan.

Thanks everyone for the replies.I have blackstone sending me a kit.Since I have already changed the oil how many miles should I put on the new oil before I send it in?Blacktone says to take the sample roughly about half way thru the drain and not to start the car before I take the sample.Also I...

I was just reading a thread on a gt350 that had a lot more glitter then mine.He dropped the oil pan and rod caps and everything and turns out it was an oil additive that was added that had a lot of zinc in it.Wondering if that is the case with mine.Ill have to send a sample to blackstone and...

I bought a used 2024 with 40k on it about 6 months ago.When I got it I checked everything I could think of and of course oil looked brand new.So I have put about 3k on it and did my own oil change and after looking in the drain pans I had 2 of them looks like I was panning for gold.There were...

New here and saw your post after I made a new thread.I was going to order a new one in February but a base gt with auto and 3.55 rear no other options but if it is 8 months I might decide to order earlier I would like it by August.

Hello everyone I am going to order a new gt for an early retirement present and was wondering what the average wait time is on a new gt?I know with the uaw striking at different places and everything is going to change that probably but I was thinking of ordering it in around February.So...
