Make sure you tell your boy you're proud of him once in a while. I'm sure he knows already but he clearly looks up to you and that will mean a lot coming from you. Just thinking like a dad.
8:53 almost looks like that new motor is on ice, reminded me of an operating room when they are doing the organ transplants. Your attention to detail and professionalism is incredible! I am strongly considering driving the 2 hours south from WI to have you replace my turbo cooler lines.
What an involved job this one is. Wanted to say thanks for the driveline work on my 2011, so glad to have it back to driving smoothly. Still watching for the video of the transfer case, really interested to see what went wrong inside of it. Thanks again to both you and Alex, I knew the truck was in great hands.
My 3.5 f1titty platinum has 400 thousand miles...runs like a champ...I've seen them with 700 thousand miles all original....its all about maintenance & knowledge
the newer vehicles can go the distance however at the cost of religious maintenance, the older trucks in the 90s would take a licking and keep on ticking
@@FordTechMakuloco I thought the gen one engine in the video was a GEN one coyote! Then I said to myself, the oil, cap and dipstick is on the wrong side! Then I realized it was a gen one eco-boost you were talking about.. but now I’m excited that you may actually have a GEN one coyote video in the works!! your videos helped me, I replaced my intake valves and installed GT cams and a new timing set on my GEN one coyote. All Ford parts! runs, like butter 💯
Greetings Mr. FTM , Never went in my mind , to remove an engine on a RWD truck or car , you have to drop the whole engine , transmission ,and chassis together. Thank you for the input , very helpful .
@@FordTechMakuloco Ditto. Used POR15 to patch rust spots before a paint job. Today those spots are bubbling up because the POR15 didn’t stay adhered and the rust came back. Never again. I now use Eastwood Rust Encapsulator and that stuff is 1000X better!
Never tried Eastwood product but I personally have had good results with POR. I do grind it down first and maybe that's why my results are better. I will keep Eastwood as a backup
As far as checking the torque converter, you can eye ball across the face of the transmission case or put a straight edge across the bell housing and the torque converter snout should be behind the case. You should normally see half an inch to a inch clearance if you do the torque converter is all way.
Hey brother, I have a 2004 f150 lariat and when I'm getting on the on ramp to the highway around 45-50mph the truck kinda jerks and buck a little and once I'm at about 60 it seems to ride ok until I let off the gas and accelerate again. No check engine light though.
Curious… what will be the approximate total bill for this? Very extensive repair. Kudos to you… Also… what years of F150’s use the different generations of the 3.5 EcoBoost?
I have a 2015 f-150 xlt 3.5 ecoboost 4x4. How feasible is it to swap the oem engine and 6 speed transmission. To a raptor 3.5 ecoboost and 10 speed transmission.
Question on a 1998 ford explorer 4.0 SOHC do you have to drop the transmission to change the turbine input speed sensor and what would a shop change to do the job
@@marceloorantes9821 thanks for the info. I agree rust sets in quick. On the axle it’s mostly surface rust and would take decades to rot out. But then again the way the metals are today one has to wonder…lol
They are mostly identical. Same block/heads/internal strength. Main differences are that the HO is actually lower compression at 10:1 vs the standard 3.5s 10.5:1, the exhaust manifolds are cast stainless vs cast iron, and the turbos use some different materials in the wheels. For the 18-20 trucks the turbos are identical in size, for 2017 the turbos are slightly smaller on the standard trucks. Most of the differences between the engine options aren’t even actually parts of the engine, such as true dual exhaust, higher output fuel pump, tuning, etc. The difference in power between the two is entirely due to the factory calibration of the ECU.
Considering your the only real ford tech on TH-cam. I have a qestion. I have a 2012 mazda 2 with no power steering and ABS and electric power steering codes. Its hard to find a good schematic online. The steering angle sensor dose not respond on scan data when i turn the wheel. What do you think?
I am not sure how their systems work but the Ford EPAS racks have an integral angle sensor that fails quite often and is only serviced with the entire rack.
With the prices for new trucks these days. I can see a lot more people deciding to get engines replaced or transmission. Good mechanics should have all the work they can handle.
Ive watched some many if your videos to help me find a solution for my 2005 f150 5.4 3v i have a very random misfire and cant seem to track it down i have no codes and my misfire data is reading 0 counts please help.
OTC makes a great engine crane that rolls like a dream. Two problems though. The OTC crane isn't free (big $), and it doesn't fit well in the BSG space.
If you had your choice what truck would be better 2015-2018 F150 3.5L ecoboost or the 5.0.? goal is 100000 max mileage. Its for my wife She will mainly be puting around but she wants a mild lift kit with the stupid big wheels. Im leaning more towards the 3.5L ecoboost. Any opinions would be greatly appreciated
Those eco boost years have phaser rattle or chain stretch. The earlier ones have turbo coolant line problems. The 5.0 would be better, but still has some issues with oil consumption after 2016.
5 liter or 2.7 EcoBoost. I have 112k miles on my 2016 f one fitty with the 2.7. No internal issues, good gas mileage. Only issue is stupid plastic oil pan leaks a little. I have a fairly heavy foot and consistently get 21 mpg 😂😂
anyone in the comment section know if the 4wd 6f35 escape transmission is the same as the 2wd 6f35 trans? like same trans just hooked up to a transfer case?
My 2011 3.5 ecoboost has almost 210000 miles. I ride her hard. Just did a timing job on her just because of mileage, not because she was complaining. Not sure why you think they are “garbage”.
me too, people don't understand simplicity is key...these engines have a lot of failure points on them. Neither my 2V v10 or 2V 5.4 have over 250K and haven't had this done. Sure, there are some that can last 200k + but the failure rates of the failure-prone areas are too high for me to ever own one. This era of trucks are getting to be some of the worst quality.
I have have a 3.5 eco boost and have only had to change the turbos because one sprung an oil and coolant leak at 140k miles. Like anything else that is mass produced, they could or could not have issues. I beat the crap out of my truck and keep the fluids changed on schedule. Still running like a powerhouse with almost 200k. So keep yours and I’ll keep mine.
My first truck was a 2001 f150 with the 5.4l 2v. It got 11-13mpg (7-8mpg towing), had 260hp and struggled to pull 5k trailers up grades at the speed limit My current truck is a 2019 f150 with the 3.5 ecoboost. It gets 18-21mpg (8-11mpg towing), has 375hp and pulls a 10k trailer at 70mph on a 7% grade with enough power to go 80+. The difference in power and efficiency is massive. IMO, it's worth the added complexity.
While 200,000 is considered high mileage by many consumers it’s just getting broken in for me. With the amount of driving that I have to do I expect at least 500,000 miles relatively trouble free. Ecoboost technology does not fit my needs . Their reliability and durability has been too poor. A well taken care of 6.2 will easily give 500K miles of hard work without reliability issues. I’d much rather pay the extra price in fuel costs than to have it down and not running.
What gives 6 years old and needs a new motor. Ford is really dropping the ball the 5.0 has a belt driven oil pump that will last the warranty out of that good luck a 8 hour repair on a good day out if your pocket if you did it before failure. Why the 5.0 and 5.4 3v used crank driven oil pumps never a failure why now a tried and true method kicked to the curb crazy. Ford your innovation on this mechanical failure will be the end of you.
Oh the pain of watching you drag that engine crane around with those crappy cheap chinese wheels on it. They are awful. I invested in quality bearing wheels twice the size with rubber coating. What a difference. Makes the crane another inch or so higher, but that is no big deal.
One day maybe, right now it works well and the hydraulic cylinder has been very reliable which others may fail. Part of the problem is the amount of work we are doing so the floors are not as clean as they could be so it drags.
I worked on the development of the ecoboost line of engines and people don't realize how much fuel they actually burn.....the 3.5 EB consumes more fuel than the 5.0 when it's under boost. Too many failure points also...I dont care how fast it is or how much they say it can tow, I'll never own one.
@@PeeterPuncher you are correct sir. There’s still no replacement for displacement if you really work a truck. I suppose if you’re going to the grocery store and Home Depot for a sack of mulch it doesn’t matter as much.

What happened with the truck that had the aftermarket exhaust manifolds and turbo leaking oil from silicone? Keep up the excellent videos.
Another terrific educational video on how to get her done
As far as checking the torque converter, you can eye ball across the face of the transmission case or put a straight edge across the bell housing and the torque converter snout should be behind the case.

Did you use aftermarket manifolds that use all the exhaust bolt holes?
Thank you
Great job guys😎

What’s better a rebuilt or new engine and a ballpark price to swap out the engine?
New is best

Question on a 1998 ford explorer 4.0 SOHC do you have to drop the transmission to change the turbine input speed sensor and what would a shop change to do the job
Are the 2023 F150 any good? What problems are they having?
Is the new 2.0 turbo Ford engine reliable? I am going to buy Corsair but a lot of people have to replace their engine at 100k miles.😢
Is there a way combat the oxidation that takes place on these aluminum blocks?
I think most anything like woolowax etc would melt over time due to the engine temps, honestly nothing is needed it will never be a problem.
I'm wondering what a new crate motor like this one or the 2.7 cost from Ford or whomever?
Thanks
10k all in I suspect
Mine was closer to 11k
Is it worth it?
I had a question. How do you guys get your new engines? Ford sends them to you guys?
Yup
Do you guys have special connections, or how does one buy a new engine from ford?
I'd have you work on mine in a new york minute..
How many miles on pull? I have a 2011 155m had to change timing chain at 150m. Runs like a new motor now.
Brian…Quick question on the wool wax… I have a 2023 F350… I just want to make sure that it wouldn’t soften a factory coating on the frame
No it does not. I would do it asap. Fords tens to rust really fast. Specifically driveshaft, axle
@@marceloorantes9821 thanks for the info. I agree rust sets in quick. On the axle it’s mostly surface rust and would take decades to rot out. But then again the way the metals are today one has to wonder…lol
My truck developed a knock recently, what at 5.0 f150 rebuild swaps going for these days?
Any idea would be helpful.
What is the difference between that 3.5 and a raptor 3.5
My understanding is the 3.5 Raptor motor is a high-output engine with more horsepower I think its built stronger also like a racing engine.
They are mostly identical. Same block/heads/internal strength. Main differences are that the HO is actually lower compression at 10:1 vs the standard 3.5s 10.5:1, the exhaust manifolds are cast stainless vs cast iron, and the turbos use some different materials in the wheels.

I am not sure how their systems work but the Ford EPAS racks have an integral angle sensor that fails quite often and is only serviced with the entire rack.
@FordTechMakuloco this looks to be separate but it's none responsive on the scan tool. Dose steering angle trigger power steering?
It is the primary input required for EPAS to be allowed. The sensor looks separate but the sensor is inside.
@FordTechMakuloco thankyou very much
