watch this

[@FordBossMe]

I rebuild these motors constantly, I am one of the most knowledgeable people on the internet on these engines Lack of maintenance is typically what causes this, out of all the engines I have ever done I have only ever seen 2 engines with that tappet worn like that and both sludgy lack of maintenance engines once that cam tappet is worn through that metal is now in the engine and even though you changed the fuel pump tappet that metal is now in the engine oil and circulating through your engine your on borrowed time now I promise you, the metal will get in other areas and plug up oil galleys and get in valve train area those do not ware out because of oil on start up issues, its not being maintenance enough typically or its been maintenanced poorly before you and now you are dealing with someone else's problem One direct reason how I know that it's not been maintenanced enough is that brown darkish ring that's inside that old bucket.....that does not come from a well maintenanced engine, that comes from an engine that's been hot with old oil in it for a long time and it's starting a coke carbon up and stain

[@crazysexycool180]

reply of the year awarded to you Very correct statement, however you must agree these cars are built to fail and cheap so they can get you back and sell you another after the old one breaks. funny older cars are still on the road with no problems like that , but these new cars are designed to be thrown away when they quickly break from some small minor slow death process.

[@FordBossMe]

@@crazysexycool180 I do agree they know what they're doing see my old Panther platform 2006 Lincoln Town Car has 229000 miles on it and still runs like it's brand new from the factory and the reason they quit making those cars is because they can't make money on them they just keep running and running and running because they were very reliable engines that never really had problems and when they did they were super cheap to fix Engines today may make more power and maybe more fuel efficient but they are total trash

[@tiffaneyvarner9605]

Help me!!!! I've done replaced 2 motor mounts, spark plugs, Has always had regular oil n transmission fluid checks and changes. 95,954 miles after hitting water it started vibrating and everything we do that should fix it only makes it vibrate worse. All fluids look normal and there are no choices or warning lights.

Can u help me with my Fushion problem

Both of y’all’s conversation back and forth on this topic helps others like me to understand. Glad y’all were able to see each other viewpoint and build upon it to give us a better understanding!

Thanks for the info but some video we can’t here do to wind.. and it’s actually one of the best parts of the video..level up and thank you too

[@MichaelGamesIn]

Thank you for this info, have you or anyone in the comments drop double mileage for instance after driving 1 mile you drop 2 miles instead, the kicker I’m having is that most of the time it stops after I’m driving for about 5 miles and it goes back to normal, but it happens again after I turn on the car after I put gas at the gas station (most of the time it won’t matter where I turn on the car)?

[@alanmungovan5071]

I just bought the high pressure pump and mine didnt come with the cup you put on that was wore out do you have to buy that separate?

[@matthewstorman4876]

I have a 2020 Ford Fusion 1.5L. I had the same issue with the tappet being worn and broken. I replaced it and it's still making a clicking noise. I disconnected the power to the high pressure fuel pump and the noise went away, connected the power back and the noise came back. Thoughts?

[@dstarok]

2015 fusion- po13A code. Replaced o2 sensor. Checked the wire harness it’s good. Check engine light goes away for a few miles occasionally, but then comes back on. Any ideas? Thanks

[@msschill]

I just bought a wrecked 16 Ford fusion with the 1.5 L EcoBoost engine. Should I remove the high pressure fuel pump to see if it was properly maintained before getting too far into it? And if everything checks out, as in good shape, can I reuse that pump or should I just replace it?

[@steveschilling5966]

yes

[@Sazonman]

1.5 lt is totallll garbageee engine

[@MichaelDabish]

Thank you. Excellent root cause analysis

[@Isreal0595]

Couldn't hear your recommendation. But very helpful.

[@mindbodysoul1019]

Hi, I have a 2016 Ford Fusion 1.5 L EcoBoost- Where can I locate the Schrader valve to check the fuel pressure? *At times the car will make a loud humming noise coming from the fuel tank in the rear of the car. *Every single time I get gas, no matter how much gas is in my gas tank, it fails to start for about 10-15 minutes unless I completely Mat the pedal to the floor and keep the RPM's above 1000 steadily for about a minute, then it will stay in idle without stalling, once I remove my foot from the gas pedal. Although, it does start every time after that point until I refill the tank again.

[@Xploitid]

haha wow. thats exactly what I have to do too. Glad im not the only one.

[@mindbodysoul1019]

@@Xploitid I'm going to check the neck of the fuel tank for any possible leaking. It seems to be more common with these capless gas tanks. ⛽

[@craigwilmorr912]

U need to replace your purge valve

[@mindbodysoul1019]

@@craigwilmorr912 thank you! I did just that, reset the engine light and finally got gas and it turned right over. Amazing!

Did the car crank but didn’t turn in right? How did it do when you try to turn it on?

[@TheBeautifulBriana]

Having some sort of problem with my 2015 ford fusion se 1.5 turbo also. Got the check engine code read and it reflects P0087. Fuel Rail/System Pressure-Too Low. We changed it (Fuel Pressure Sensor) and the light is still on 😢 not sure what the cause is. Any idea or could it be the fuel pump?

What oil did you recommend? The audio was breaking up when you was talking about suggested oil

[@trinabelle]

I couldn't hear what he said either, so I had to put on my caption on in order to know what he said. he said something about oil stabilizer

[@makenzieburnette1582]

Will this cause misfires under a load

[@deletacole5657]

Could not hear what type of lubricant to use to prevent damage. Can you please tell me? Thank you!

[@crazysexycool180]

try oil stabilizer

[@jeromehunter8680]

what was the size of the camshaft follower? having trouble finding replacement..

[@HouseCallAutoRepair]

If your cam got scored AT ALL, the csm is now junk. NOT replacing the cam will chew up the new cap. The metal flake floating around the engine will destroy the engine. Short cuts will burn you.

[@crazysexycool180]

this was explained to the client several times but due to financial restraints they choose this way to get the car running, funny part i haVE MEDE SO MUCH MORE MONEY BY THEM CHOOSING THIS OPTION . at this point they come by every 30 to 45 days for a new cap but still will not fork over the money to fix it correctly, oh well its like a monthly bonus now. lol

[@iraqihawk805]

I had the same problem , but the mechanic said i have to change the camshaft also is that correct sir????

[@crazysexycool180]

yes

[@evb2065]

I have a 2.0 and I smell gas whenever I have the a/c on while driving could I be experiencing the same issue ? I get my oil changes when recommended

Thank you I am going to try this now!!! 😅😅😅❤❤❤

[@randyu8688]

Will it make noise when u accelerate? Almost like a knocking sound

[@fitmatt6622]

Question. If the fuel tappet is actually the issue causing the fuel pressure to be off wouldn’t just replacing the tappet itself correct the issue instead of the entire high pressure fuel pump? Just curious.

[@crazysexycool180]

replace both

[@hakimwhite1999]

Hey I need some help I did everything correct but when I try to put the steelbar back on for the fuel the bolts won’t fit or if I get the bolts on the fuel bar won’t go in the socket and my part fits my car what’s going on?

Hi King! Here is a ? I have a 2000 f150 that I bought just because. It rattles when I am in 3 gear. Engine and Trans has been rebuilt. What could that be?

5w 20 is a standard oil that's been used from the beginning of time and it's not really that thin of an oil, its standard

[@crazysexycool180]

for this set up its too thin

[@FordBossMe]

@@crazysexycool180 I completely disagree with you it's more than sufficient you just can't wait five to six thousand miles to do oil changes, I do this every day as I said and you can look at my Channel with probably several thousand videos between the two channels I have I do this everyday I'm not just some run-of-the-mill mechanic I profess in this that's what I do I'm currently pulling apart another one right now I know these things inside and out and your opinion or mine on whether or not something is thin or too thick is irrelevant because it comes down to rod and Main clearances so what either one of us think doesn't matter it's what's designed to be in that motor You take Rod Journal bore X .001 or main bearing bore X .001 Then you figure out exactly what range that vehicle needs to run at operating temperature You'll find most of these engines are at a 5w 20 or less with these tight tolerances you go to a thicker oil and you won't be able to remove heat as fast as you will with a thinner oil, but what I can tell you is he's Motors today are trash it's not oil if the manufacturer of the motor

[@Slammed46]

i had one with this exact failure. i replaced the camshaft, fuel pump, and follower. engine lasted about a week and it locked up. you think that metal from the cam trashed rod/main bearings?

[@crazysexycool180]

yep, or clogged the oil screen

[@lorenzodelacruz9571]

I replaced that pump and the problem didnt go away i just saw your video and i saw that the bottom cup is broken on my car

where did you buy the camshaft follower. ford or aftermarket?

Where do i find that bottom cup??

[@StupidStuff62]

The 2015 Ford Fusion that we have is sputtering every 45 seconds or so after running fine for 1 minute. Any diagnosis? We’ve replaced all spark plugs, replaced a possible bad coil. I’m suspecting it’s this is because of the sputtering and exhaust cuts out completely when sputtering. Someone please get back to me.

[@jacobcarroll9519]

I actually had this issue. The Bi-metal plate that grounds the engine to the fuse box warps. Causing an arc in the electronics which forces it to fail. Check the bi-metal plate. You can get them from a junkyard for free, they just let ya walk out with them.

[@StupidStuff62]

[@rickchambers73]

But the reason for that light metal that is worn out. Because the most common problem is people run there engine low on oil. That is most likely that damage is caused from. Low on oil and lack of oil changes. The reason the light is a buffer. Better to wear out light metal cause Driveabilty problem before more damage to the cam lobe. That metal gets wipe out before the cam and cause fuel delivery problem. Good engineer. Professional Retired Professional

Also nice video and helpful. Just trying to make you look at the situation why it's made to do that. Saves Camshaft replacement.

How do you get that cap to stay on when you install?

[@fullmelt93u63]

right imagine that falling off

[@casheighty8]

It isn’t supposed to. Turn the engine so the camshaft is at “bottom dead center” and drop it in. If not you’ll be fighting the spring tension on the hpfp to tighten the bolts.

Does the bucket come with the fuel pump? Thanks!

Your "solution" to the lubricant starvation is unintelligible.

[@crazysexycool180]

this is a fuel and lubrication issue these carts have so what is your question? furthermore this repair is very expensive and the owner chose the cheap repair instead of the expense . everyone cant afford to spend big like you so open your mind and learn something instead of trying to be condescending

​@@crazysexycool180Hey butthead.... none of your BS applies. I was just saying that I could not HEAR what he said as his lubrication issue solution. Please try not to act like an asshole. Thanks!
