[QUOTE="thedefboy, post: 1097895, member: 22246"] So after a semi long haul; I finally found out what the problem was with my motor.:mfr_omg: A workmanship issue was the cause, (Thank you Ford of Kenai Alaska & Sound Ford of Renton WA).:shitsweak: The first dealer used the old manifold off the 1st engine that had a rod come apart (thus putting bits and pieces all thru the motor). new motor with old manifold ; that motor lasted less than 2k, New motor same old manifold (mind you they never cleaned out the old manifold). Motor #3 previous owner still having issues , and his local dealership going ti*'s up; has it barged to Seattle and this is where Sound Ford comes in. Rather than cracking the valve covers or even popping a plug or 2 to see inside the cylinders.:slap: One of there managers drive the truck for a few days and reports to the old owner its fine and there is no issues.:flipthebird: Well the same old manifold was on there dropping bits and pieces of the last motors failures and some pieces went thru the motor and some didn't ( Thus my personal dilemma). 4 cylinders affected, a rocker arm was pulled off and setting beside the place where it should be and so on. Now complete new short block , new heads and Yes A New Manifold... :big_banana_Dance: Hopefully it will be done by next week so i can continue planning on my BAJA trip in March :wizcow: [/QUOTE]
