[QUOTE="Fred W, post: 1397294, member: 3828"] The only real issue Im aware of on ecoboost engines is not really a Ford problem, but rather a problem that plagues all direct fuel injected engines, and that is the carbon build up on intake valves over time. Since there is no fuel in the intake charge through the intake valves their seats never get cleaned by the fuel additives. The solution is blasting them with crushed walnut shells, which is an expensive labor process to gain access. But like I said, it affects all engines with the injectors going directly into the cylinders, aka direct injection. It is one reason that I specifically sought out an older, naturally aspirated 3.0L I-6 for my wifes BMW 328xi rather than the higher performance twin turbo 3.5L V6. The former has intake port injection and the latter has direct injection. [/QUOTE]
