    Some 2018-2019 Lincoln Continental and 2018 MKS vehicles built on or before Aug. 1, 2019, and equipped with a 2.7L EcoBoost or 3.0L EcoBoost engine may exhibit an engine oil leak from the engine oil pan RTV seal.

    Remove and discard the oil pan and oil pump seal. Clean surfaces and install the new oil pump seal. Apply an 18mm (0.708-inch) bead of Motorcraft High-Performance Engine RTV Silicone to the front cover-to-cylinder block joint areas on the oil pan.

    The new oil pan includes a pre-installed seal and does not require the use of RTV in any other location. Use oil pump seal FT4Z-6626-A and new oil pan KT4Z-6675-D.
