  1. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    When I drive to work (15 min) I get out and my truck smells like it's overheating but the Guage isn't anywhere above normal. I pulled the dipstick and there was some steam coming from the dipstick hole. Coolant level is still good, any ideas?
  2. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    Alright I've been trying to find this info for about a week now. 2019 F-150 3.5L EB There's a connector on the timing chain cover that's leaking oil. Everything I've found thus far indicates it goes to the Oil Pressure Control Solenoid. I know how to replace it but the problem is I can't find...
  3. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    I have a 2013 FX2 3.5L and it has this hose zip tied into the side of another hose. I can’t seem to find a good diagram, so I was curious what I am looking at here. It looks like it was JB welded before, but when I had to remove all the hoses to replace the water pump & thermostat housing it...
  4. 2nd Gen F150 Ecoboost
    So I've had a good amount of white smoke on cold start for a couple years but assumed it was condensations/typical EB stuff and forgot about it. Also, lived in the PNW so moisture was off the charts. Moved to a drier area and the issues has only gotten worse. Coolant is going at a quicker pace...
  5. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    I have a 2011 ford f150 3.5 Ecoboost. P0016 and p0299 codes. I ran live data and intake cam is running +13 degrees At idle. No chain rattle at startup or idle. I unplugged intake vvt solenoid and it levels out to around 2 degrees. Would this mean clogged vvt solenoid? I ran 12v to the intake vvt...
  6. 2021+ Ford F150 Ecoboost
    The more I drive my truck the more I fall in love with it, except the sound. I actually like the sound of a couple of exhausts such as the AWE 0fg with res delete or borla s, however everytime I ask someone what they think they say it sounds terrible. Am I just wrong? Any thoughts would be...

    I have a 2012 f150 3.5 ecoboost with 145,000 miles on it. Was having slight issue with the occasional misfire around 135,000 miles. And changed the spark plugs. Didn’t change but wasn’t having the issue unless under load and rare at that. Past week noticed what I think is an exhaust leak and...

  11. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    So I got a new truck, was very excited and happy. Not even 24 hours later I wanted to see what she could do so I sent it off the intersection. It'll misfire at high rpms and load, as if I was passing someone maybe, it misfires, shakes for a min or even a few seconds, and then the shake goes away...

  14. F150 Ecoboost Performance
    Hello, I'm in the process of building a 2015 3.5 Ecoboost. I was wondering if anyone knows the stock head gasket thickness. I'm looking at some .040" Cometic gaskets, but don't want to lose compression or run into interference issues. Thanks in Advance!
  15. AWE
    In case anyone is interested. I wanted to share a few clips of my new AWE full exhaust with the non resonated mid pipe.

  20. 2nd Gen F150 Ecoboost
    I have a 2015 3.5 ecoboost and have had clouds of white smoke- no black. I have no noticeable oil loss or coolant loss over the last 15k miles. The mechanic did not look at it but said that it is normal (condensation). My concern is that it does not really go away after warming up and I use top...
