  2. 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!
  3. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    Hello everyone, I have a 2013 F150 Lariat SuperCrew with a 3.5 EcoBoost, RWD with 148500 miles. Asss month or two ago I had the timing chain replaced as well as my passenger side turbo.

  4. 2nd Gen F150 Ecoboost
    I have a 2018 XLT 3.5 super crew. Whenever I start my truck, 9/10 in the morning, I smell a slight burning plastic smell for about a minute or so before it goes away. I quickly looked at the manifolds and the hot side of the turbos, and I don’t see anything that could be causing it. I’ve smelled...

    My AC/Heater is turned off and yet I still get air coming through my cabin vents? My recirculation button ( part of my climate control) is turned off as well, and I checked the radiator cooling fan, it's not running in the background, nor is my coolant system overheating, all gauges read...
  6. 2nd Gen F150 Ecoboost
    I’m fairly new here, I’ve been on other forums, but there’s a lot going on here that I need to unpack, so please bear with me. In September, I purchased a USED 2018 F-150 3.5 XLT 4x4, and it was great for about 2 weeks. My truck is still under the factory 5/60 warranty (currently 57k miles). I...
  7. 2nd Gen F150 Ecoboost
    I was looking through old pictures from last year and came across some I took of the 3.5: one is a date sticker placed on top of the engine (first picture), one is a date and time stamped into the block (second picture), and the other is a date stamped behind the tailgate (third picture)...
  8. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    It all started about a week ago. Drove to work just fine, as I was leaving I got all the symptoms of P0087. Shudders, loss of power, eventual stalling, etc.. Went to tow it home that night and it fired right up with no problems. Haven't seen the code or any symptoms since. Fast forward a few...
  9. F150 Ecoboost Problems
    So before my dad bought his current 2018 F-150 (shown in the profile picture) this February, earlier that month I went with him to our Ford dealer and looked at another 2018 Lariat with the 3.5L he thought about buying (with 35K miles, build date March 2018). Immediately after the salesman...

  12. F150 Ecoboost Maintenance
    I am working through removing my 3.5L from my 2011 F150 4X4 XLT XTR which has a hole in the side of the block. I am starting to look for a replacement engine now. Is it only 2011-2014 that are compatible? I heard 2011 and 2012 are more prone to failure, should I really aim for finding a 2013...

    Hey everyone! Looking forward to sifting through the crazy amount of knowledge and experience here. I'm excited about my new truck and I was wondering if anyone has found any issues with their ecoboosts? I have seen a little bit about people adding catch cans and other things to prevent long...
  14. Ford Expedition Ecoboost
    I purchased a 2016 Expedition & overall I'm very pleased. It'll avg between 20-21 mpg on the highway but falls to 17-18 around town. I've had good luck in the past with tuners/programmers increasing mpg, I'm not looking to gain big hp I just want to see better fuel economy. I've been looking at...
