Bucking and snorting on acceleration

[Jimbo]

So, the HUGE ELEPHANT IN THE ROOM is this:

Ford's isn't deaf, dumb, and blind.
Ford didn't build these Raptors in a vacuum.
Ford ran the living sh*t out of a bunch of test vehicles.
This isn't their first Ecoboost.
This isn't the only Turbocharged engine a vehicle.

YET, we are all expected to believe that this problem JUST occurred after these Raptors hit the streets and Ford has NEVER known about this, or had this happen to them?

AND, if they did, and it's as simple as a 1/16" hole...THEN WHY THE H3LL WOULDN'T THEY HAVE ENGINEERED THAT FROM THE FACTORY?

Sorry, I'm just not buying it.

I'm still open-minded to other stranger anomalies, i.e. Knock adjustments, even a transmission lockup issue.

Mine did it, others (family) have felt it, so I know I'm not dreaming.

But, now after two resets and almost 3,000 miles and hot weather, my truck is running strong and smooth. For now.

I'm a deep skeptic and don't believe in things "fixing themselves"...except in this case in which the ADM may, in fact, be doing what a few Ford Reps (and many others on FRF) claim; and that is "let the computer systems build up some history and adapt to the optimize performance for your given conditions. Until then, it ain't gonna run the best."

Yet Ford still uses the ****** vacuum actuated IWE's.

 

[GizmoVance]

Ok. So. Let me get this straight. Pardon me for being overly simple and getting to the point...

"Ford has many TSBs about condensate"?
"The weep hole does not void the warranty"?
"The weephole WILL fix the problem"?

Then why the H3LL wouldn't Ford perform this incredibly easy and FAST fix to ANY and EVERY owner of their flagship vehicle?

Sorry, I'm calling "bullsh*t"!

When are you guys going to realize.

Sasquatch does NOT own a Raptor.

Sasquatch is NOT here to help anyone.

He is a Ford hating troll.

My guess is he a Dodge truck salesman with too much time on his hands.

Who you guys give TONS of attention. If this is indeed the case, (I have no idea either way) then IGNORE HIM. We are only feeding the cat. If you want the cat to quit coming around, starve it out!

Pretty sure he owns a gen 1

Just wait, @Ironhorse07 has zero ***** to give. If his starts acting up, I know he'll drill right away.

**** yeah! First invisible mechanical misfire and I'm getting out the hole saw. Should add 50 - 60 horse.

Another drive today. About 160 miles since i drilled it and its running solid! Issue is sorted (so far). No loss in power. It feels stronger because its running clean now. Such a stupid fix but it seems to be working. I've had a few intercoolers with pinholes from the factory. Maybe for the same issue. Back in the day i fit an intercooler from a tractor trailer on my DSM! That one had a hole in it too. I'm not seeing any drops in boost and it sure feels better to me. I hate going to the dealer so i figured why not try it and i am happy i did.

This has been a problem since 2011... it is not new. They have tried MANY fixes and nothing has worked. They cannot do the weep hole in the design because the fluids released do contain some amount of oil. The EPA would never allow that from the factory.

Everyone can ask NASSTY.... he will help you understand why this was not a Ford solution/design fix.

But it's okay for you to advise everyone to pollute the environment?

If you're so concerned about the environment you could run the weep hole through a catch can and just dump it from time to time.
Then i suppose you could see how much is collected... So it's not so voodoo
