Ford F - Series The Ford F-Series lineup offers a plethora of models for every occasion or occupation, starting below $20,000 and climbing beyond double that. The F-Series line offers something on the order of 75 permutations, more than some car companies' entire lineups. All are capable of work or play, even those models with luxurious interiors, and all have four doors.

You will need some sort of crankcase evacutation system. The PCV system keeps blowby from entering your engine oil and contaminating it and they system also keeps excess pressure from building in the crankcase which will ruin your rear main seal and possibly blow the dipstick tube out of the block. I would invest in a $2 PCV valve, $1 worth of new vacuum line, and a $5 breather. If that doesn't fix your problems you may check to see if the baffle fell of the valve cover.
