This was not the only instance of FORD corroding away like this. Do you speak from your own experience? What makes you think it wasn't done properly?

I suppose both scenarios are possible. Good luck with the repair!

@@3D4KAUTO Thanks!

I will do a follow up video with a startup next time I see him.

No reprogramming is needed, just install them and go. The vehicle will automatically readapt to new fuel injectors if there are no other issues with it.

He told me that he was using 87 octane fuel all the time, but switched to higher octane already. I could imagine that if he had a lot of ethanol in the tank it could have brought in some water from the atmosphere. Water could ruin injectors over time...

Fuel injectors set came with the fuel line already in the same kit. The whole thing costed $809 plus taxes. Spent about 3.5 hours to do it. Not sure why they included the line with the set. The old one looked exactly like the new one.

Вам мабуть потрібно було ще трішки масла долити, і всі проблеми зникли би самі😅

😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂 At least google what a camshaft is and how much it costs, or did you lose a zero?

The whole problem is that the mechanic couldn't identify the problem and fix the car and then took money for "inspecting the car". The chain was changed 30 thousand kilometers ago and as you may know, the condition of the chain can be found out through a special window in the engine. And miraculously, they managed to fix the car 10 times cheaper in another place with a quality and experienced mechanic. I do not deny that the car is in bad condition, but I know what problems this car had and I know that they wanted to charge us a lot of money for changing the chain, the repair of which would not have affected the solution of the problem.

I was the mechanic who worked on your vehicle, and I want to clarify a few things. The issue I identified was incorrect engine timing, and at that point, I was instructed to stop further investigation. The critical system that needed attention was the engine’s timing, which required additional disassembly that wasn't approved at the time. I did not recommend changing the chain. Instead, I advised that we needed to check the timing. It’s a common misconception that when people hear "timing," they immediately think of the chain or belt, but in this case, it was more about ensuring the timing was properly aligned. I’m glad you found a solution elsewhere and that it worked out for you. However, given the condition of the vehicle, I would still advise keeping an eye on the intermittently flashing "low oil pressure" light, as it could lead to further issues if left unchecked. Best of luck with the car, and I hope it continues to serve you well.

It took most of the day, probably about 7-8 hours.

Apparently a lot of people are having this issue with this model. Could be questionable parts quality.

​@@3D4KAUTO how many kilometers on thet car ?

@@NoWay-ye7yq 110k at the time of repair, but he drove it with this issue for about 15k km, so the problem started at about 95 k or so.

@@3D4KAUTO are you sure the problem was in injectors maybe carbon was built up on the valves ?

@@NoWay-ye7yq It has been over a week he has been driving after the repair. Not a single misfire.

Perhaps, you live in a different climate... Here in Canada vehicle makes other than Ford and GM usually dont have as much corrosion and are much easier to work with in terms of seized parts. I am speaking from my own experience as I have done a fair share of this work. It will take WD40 weeks to penetrate that much corrosion and only if the part is submerged in it completely.

I am glad my suffering and pain was helpful to save some of someone else's suffering.

Noted...

It seems that people just pack it in the bags because they are told to without understanding why they are doing it... And then they just throw it away thinking very good about themselves...

I used DJI Mini 3 Pro. It has awesome picture quality and image stabilization. Also, does 4K60FPS.

@@3D4KAUTO Nice! Yeah the Mini3 is great, I love that the screen is built in, so there is less fussing with a phone trying to get it connected etc, which can take a while sometimes. I think I have to upgrade to that one!

@@stevelowry794 At this point in time it would be better to get the DJI mini 4 pro. They say it has better collision avoidance than the mini 3.

I was motivated by the opportunity to dig it out from the hot oil...

@@Divchyk its also very fast and fun to drive. But, if you ask me, I would rather spend the money on something more practical...

​@@larrykerrigan4546 You are welcome! Thank you for the great show! Your car was one of the best ones out there!

Dealer did not want to change it yet. They wanted this car to drive even more...

The cause was probably the prior hydrolock as the owner was driving with a cracked cylinder head for a while until he decided to repair it. The coolant was leaking into the cylinder. This could cause a minor hydrolock at some point (probably during startup). The hydrolock could have bent the connecting rod slightly. On these engines connecting rods are very tiny, so any deviation from perfect can damage them. Go figure...

Thank you. Hydrolock again. ​@@3D4KAUTO

@@6ixthstage845 Probably about the same difficulty level

The tires in the video were defective from the manufacturer. They were not even driven on the road. You may also have defective tires. Check them on a Road Force Balancer to make sure they are ok.

Some are a bit harder to reach, but most are pretty accessible.

The vehicle was driven in Toronto, Ontario. There is no sea or ocean in Ontario. So, must be the road salt...

As tough as it gets :)
