If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, generate excess heat, and cause your Crown Victoria’s engine to fail. That’s why you’re better off checking your oil levels and investing in routine lube services.

You’ll have to figure out how to properly dispose of the oil and buy special tools. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Ford exhaust smoke gray or blue? You could have an oil leak and have a case of burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
