Oil Change Q&A for Your 1989 Ford LTD Crown Victoria

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Ford LTD Crown Victoria? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, these parts can grind together, overheat, and eventually lead to Ford LTD Crown Victoria engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Ford oil on my own? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Getting a professional oil change reduces the risk of something going wrong during the service, but it’ll also help your car perform smoothly down the road.
  • Why is my Ford LTD Crown Victoria exhaust smoke grayish or blue? There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. It may be time for a pro to take a look. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, fried piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Who does Ford LTD Crown Victoria oil changes? You can count on Firestone Complete Auto Care for your Ford LTD Crown Victoria oil change, oil filter replacement, oil leak diagnostics, and more! Our expert technicians will even advise the right oil for your vehicle.
  • What does it mean if my Ford LTD Crown Victoria oil light comes on? The oil change light in your Ford LTD Crown Victoria could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.
  • Do I need to replace my LTD Crown Victoria’s oil filter when changing my oil? Every time you change the oil in your Ford LTD Crown Victoria, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
