Long run yes. Right now they sell for more on autotrader.

For one reason if the gen 1 was replaced with gen 2 the value of the pre-2019 are higher. Can’t imagine a numbers matching car would matter this few number of years since the end of production…maybe different for the more limited run of R cars.

Good to know. My replacement was built dec 21 or Jan 22 (can’t remember)decoded from the engine plate so hopefully I’m done with replacements. I did note they didn’t change the original builder’s names on the engine when itwas replaced. They just used the 2017 stamped plate that was on the...

Is it true that you can no longer get a Gen 2 replacement long block from Ford? My understanding from the dealer is that they aren’t manufacturing these any longer so they just rebuild the failed Gen 1 or 2 engines. Seems wrong since the last model year was only 2020.

Thank you. I think it’s more coming from around somewhere behind the engine.

Yes they did check those. Perhaps the lugging is normal.

If I force the car into a stall backing up or going forward it sounds like something is loose or vibrating until the car gets under way or stalls out. I’ve had the exhaust and heat shields checked and they are all secured. Same for the belly pans at the front and back. Did I read long ago...

No idea what the former owner did or did not do. I’ve owned the car for a handful of weeks now.

Thanks all. Dropped into ford and they confirmed the play in it.

The black hose is tight on the blue piece. It’s the blue piece that is loose that goes inside the cover. Are you saying the loose piece is fine?

I was going to install a catch can and notice that the blue fitting going into the cover floats around an bit and isn’t tight. Is this ok?

back again guys unfortunately. Purge valve, plugs, changed. Tried different fuel. No codes. Doesn’t seem to be misfiring as much but occasionally at a stop, clutch in, engine warm the idle drops momentarily Out there question but is there any way it could be the aluminum flywheel and...

Brass wool on the stripes? That seems like it would scratch them. They seem pretty unforgiving

Thank you all. Tips are looking great. Still struggling with bringing the stripes back.

Seems the plugs weren’t gapped properly or had changed overtime. All new plugs so peace of mind and hopefully the idle will be stable. thank you for everyone’s help.

No thank goodness.

No its stock and no tune.

Thank you. I think it shows up in the same 3 cylinders. I’ll change the fuel if we start hitting a dead end.

At idle after warm up the idle stumbles and recovers. Went for a drive and Ford tech was able to see the misfires on a graph on his laptop. The purge valve was not functioning so that was replaced previously. interesting. I’ve been running chevron 94. I can’t believe it would create...

It was a long block warranty replacement at a different dealer. Not all on the same bank. I was thinking switching the coils around. I’ll mention about the cam timing thank you.
