Love your videos. I changed careers from a certified diesel mechanic to police officer 20 years ago. I’ve second guessed my decision many times. I live vicariously through your videos. Thanks!!!!
Man not emptying that AC machine is pretty bad. Good on you for leaving everything better than you find. Wholeheartedly love the engine swap you do. Even the GF said...I love that music lol
Great detailed videos. How long did it take you to drop the subframe and get the engine off? I just bought a 2013 3.7 and need to pull it. But have to pull it and re-install the subframe until I either rebuild or replace the engine.
Is that thing you had to do the same thing as a crank/cam relearn process? My tuner device for the car has the relearn program on it, do you think that will work fine to get everything set right?
Lol, I always enjoyed working on and test driving police cars. I'd pull up behind a car going down the road, and it was obvious the driver was freaking out
flmmaz which bike? The one in the pic is my 2014 Suzuki GSXR 600. I also have a 2005 yamaha r6 track bike and a 2017 Suzuki gsxr 1000 track bike(road course racing) u ride? By the way i live outside fayetteville. East side of 95 toward hwy 13. Your not to far from me
Very nice, I am a canyon carver. I sold my last bike to move to NC. I am a Suzuki guy and my last bike was a 2004 GSXR 600. I would love to get a gixxer 750.
I would have really been messing with that car that wouldn't pass you. They would have been shaking for real. Hope you open the vehicle up to see how fast it can go. Lol that would be nice
Can you share a little bit more about how lousy the warranty times are on these jobs? Warranty work always sucks, but Ford has a reputation for being the worst and the cheapest right now on their times. You may be able to "break even" on these jobs because you've done so many of them, but the pubic should know that you could have made 2 or 3 times as much that day doing "Wallet Flush" maintenance work or brake jobs or "Customer Pay" work in general. I was a flat rate dealer tech in the 80s and 90s and I got out when everything started to go to shit and I changed my occupation in life.
scdevon you were smart. These newer direct injection engines are crap. Ford and other car makers didn’t have the foresight to see what direct injection would do to the intake valves. Quite often they will build up a crust or coking because with direct injection the valves aren’t being washed as the gas enters the cylinder. Fords fix was to add sequential port injection in addition to the direct injection to take care of the valve coking problem. The water pump was the other screw up Ford made. Putting it on the timing chain and sitting just above the oil pan when it failed it leaked antifreeze into the oil pan and most times destroyed the engine (rarely caught in time to save the engine)

A pleasure to watch a competent professional !!
Thanks!
Appreciate it.

Real modular and easy to come out. Those engineers were looking out for you when you have to change the water pump 😂
Very nice work. Appreciate the explanation about seating the rings. Thanks!

I see everyone is on their best behavior

Did you respond to the cat call? lol...
Love watching your 6.7 Diesel vids...very methodical.
LOL, makes me glad I'm not a public servant!!!!
I just wasn't sure. I just remembered that most engines had to have that to be broken in

Don't give me a cop car and no supervision
Could you test out the lights and siren; just to make sure its all working of course.
That's totally illegal
Not illegal on private property.
Don’t forget to drill the intercooler and put a catch can in. I’m sure law enforcement uses the turbo quite often.
Willie Gillie They don’t have turbos.
Wow how did they blow the motor in the 1st place @ 9K miles? Did you see the smoke @ 7:50 in the video?
That's catastrophe oil burning off the exhaust.
Officer flmmaz.....traffic enforcer....lol! Now Its obvious its an interceptor with the column shifter and "certified calibration" on the speedo.
It will be back in the shop in a month for a new engine🤥🤥🤥
Are you in Kinston NC? I live in NC
Yessir
What kind of bike do you ride?
flmmaz which bike? The one in the pic is my 2014 Suzuki GSXR 600. I also have a 2005 yamaha r6 track bike and a 2017 Suzuki gsxr 1000 track bike(road course racing) u ride? By the way i live outside fayetteville. East side of 95 toward hwy 13. Your not to far from me

flmmaz 750 is nice!
Do you still have to run at 3000 rpm for 15mins?
No.
I would have really been messing with that car that wouldn't pass you. They would have been shaking for real. Hope you open the vehicle up to see how fast it can go. Lol that would be nice
3:30 does it smell like bacon in there
