Engine misfire DOES affect 17+ ecoboost... ALL PLATFORMS. seriously? You are a member here and you don't read the engine misfire posts? Really Smurf... You have some problems. Nobody is backing you up or defending you. Know why? Ecoboost weep hole is an acceptable fix to get the crap out of the intercooler.

how quaint. Not the truth is no longer true in your preferred reality?

You JUST admitted pages back that this does not affect the 2017-2018 trucks, now you are just posting because you are obsessed with me.

Everyone with a 2017-2018 Raptor who has drilled a hole in their CAC to fix the so called misfire condition, raise your hands - raise ‘em high so sasquatch77 can see you.

Again, you are not addressing any of the points and you need to because you are peddling a “so called” fix that voids the warranty! Amazing that you continue to troll here

Wow.

This fix you are prescribing is meaningless to 2017+ Raptor owners because they do not suffer from the misfire condition.

it is high time you admit this.
also, thanks for the admission that you are sasquatch77.

now, let’s get back to it, shall we?

So, why do you continue to troll the Gen 2 subforums with what seems to be a pretty blatant attempt to convince someone to lose the warranty on their new trucks? BTW - you have yet to address this point.

1: Gen 2 owners do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines. Read it again. Now, read it again. Repeat as needed until you actually understand.

2) The 2017-2018 trucks are not suffering from this affliction, whether you want to admit it or not. No amount of trolling is going to work.

3) Your preferred narrative will not prevail. Read this again.

4) Gen 2 owners do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines.

5) You have gone back on your statements no less than half a dozen times in this thread. I’ve done my best to illustrate them, because I know you’re suffering from multiple personality disorder and affects not only how you type, but what you type. But I want to be sure that I am on the correct side of this
- you saying I am a smart guy actually hurts my FRF cred. So, I need you to be clear that I am dumb as a box of rocks, narrow and closed minded, unwilling to accept your ... opinions and so on. so please clarify what your opinion of my level of intelligence is.

6) if your argument / opinion had merit, you would see people jumping up and down on your side and blasting away at me. Your argument lacks merit - see points 1-5. If your argument, point - what is your point by the way? Nevermind - if it had any merit whatsoever, the opinion would stand by itself.

here are some examples
Raptor 3.5TT is more powerful than the previous 6.2L V8. This fact stands on its own.

Raptor 3.5TT is more powerful than standard F150 3.5TT. This fact stands on its own merit as well.

6.2L Raptor makes a great audio soundtrack. Not as good as the GT350, but pretty good. This fact stands on its own merit ( sure some will take offense at a Mustang sounding better but, if you heard them at Raptor Assault, you would agree ).

The F150 Raptor is the preeminent COTS, production off road vehicle. Ford sells every one of them and then some. The demand for the Raptor is as never before, as with every previous year of Raptor. Again, this stands on its own


In stark contrast to the aforementioned facts that stand on their own merit, your assertion that owners of Gen 2 Raptors should drill a hole in the charge air cooler to “fix” a “problem” that doesn’t exist in the truck, is argumentum ad absurdum.

7) We just do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines.

8) Updatded: Sasquatch77 now finally admits the 2017-18 Raptor does not need a weep hole.

9) You are arguing solely for the purpose of arguing and even if I and all the other posters in here acquiesced to your absurd recommendations, you would find something to argue about or nit pick about the Raptor, which you hate.

10) I think we can now safely dispense with the charade. You are sasquatch77, mcnawsty, mgd. and sasquatch78. It’s ok to admit it now, I am not bothered by this, neither are the admins or moderators. Last time they messaged me they made it clear that you would not be banned for duplicate registrations. At least do us the courtesy of acknowledging this. I have dealt with you fairly, and addressed your points. I have treated you with respect, and still you argue this pointless jihad. admit you are sasquatch77 and all the rest of your aliases here.

11) Did I forget to mention that Gen 2 owners do not care about your opinion on drilling the charge air cooler on ecoboost engines? I think I did.

12) I am puzzled why you want me to interrogate my mechanic at the Ford dealer who does my Raptor service on drilled CAC issues. Why would I do this, I asked, he answered. End of story on this ( probably not the best choice of phrases, but it is ) What about this do you find hard to understand.

13) H#ll, you won’t read past 1.

Ecoboost misfires still occur today... Even in 17+. It's a problem. You will resort to drilling the intercooler once you get frustrated with the lack of a Ford fix. What's funny is that even the Taurus SHO community drills their intercooler!

Smurf, research is your friend. Do it.

Ok, so now you’re saying go look at the SHO stuff on the internet.

That would be like saying go look at the Ford GT stuff on the internet in comparison to the Raptor.

Nice try turning the “nobody is supporting you” thing around. How many Raptor owners agree with you? where are all your adoring fans?

See point 11.

Yes - 3.5 ecoboost across generations and platforms suffers from engine misfires. Owners drill the weep hole to fix. Sorry you can't grasp this.

just so you understand the context of this whole thread at this point...


Everyone support smurfslayer's side of this "debate".

No one really cares enough to feed your trolling appetite.

you've rattled on so long, that most have now chosen to ignore this thread.

You've been annoying me long enough that I'm choosing to put you on my ignore list now.

no one supports your flimsy research or debate points.

To be 100% clear:

not one person agrees with you. not one person values your opinion. not one person is "backing" you.

you should, in all reality, find a new hobby or a new message board to troll. My recommendation would be to turn off your computer and find something productive to do.

The entire FRF community has come to the conclusion that you are not worth paying attention to.

Is that clear enough?

All of the known Raptor cases of misfires were resolved, plugs or tuned trucks with plugs and a smaller gap. Other Raptor owners have seen stuttering acceleration --NOT-- traced to a misfire, which you are refusing to acknowledge.

You’re simply trolling to troll here and repeating the same things, over and over again. it’s long past time for you to get another ban.

BTW, what do you do in the 2.5 minutes between being banned at FRF and reregistering? It must be traumatic for you.

Definitely not flimsy research. The denial runs deep here about what the purpose of the weep hole is, and what it fixes. None of you have researched it. You reatbe ecoboost has a long history, and it's problems from Ford continue to plague it. Engineering has not made it any better. Your intercooler will still make water. Only a matter of time before it bites each of you.

If it's not a problem, then why are there ecoboost weep hole "stickies" on every f150 forum? Why do Ford techs have videos explaining the various TSBs? Lastly, why do you think that "your" truck will never be affected? That is some real arrogance there!... And stupidity.

The arrogance and ignorance is showing once again in @MGD/@Sasquatch77’s posts. We’re right back to where it’s trolling began, again. You have zero evidence to support this affecting ’17 and ’18 Raptors. This has been covered already. You need to move on from your circular arguing and see the points below.

1 at a time. Do you want me to make separate posts for you? I can use smaller words so you can better understand if you need.

Again, you are not addressing any of the points and you need to because you are peddling a “so called” fix that voids the warranty! Amazing that you continue to troll here
