Check the oil level first thing with the engine level, if it's above full I would suspect it to be making oil which could be an issue, If not and with lower hrs it should be fine.

Used one on my 2016 FX-20 and I would do it again, easy to install and very heavy duty.

Update #3
So I just got a message from HB @8:00 PM est and the guy I had talked to originally called and left a message on my voicemail.
