Of course the weep hole fix won't be Ford sanctioned on Ford letterhead. You are an idiot to not connect the dots there.Please, explain why all F150 sites have an area devoted to the weep hole and how it fixes the misfire.Second, please explain to me how to fix the water buildup in the intercooler.Are you refusing to admit that the intercooler builds water? Did you see that the Federal Government went after Ford for this and thus why you see the myriad of TSBs related to water buildup in the intercooler? This is also why the Gen 2 3.5 ecoboost has active shutters in from of the intercooler. These help, but still not a fix. Heck, even the aftermarket parts people know the engine has problems with this and they built in corrections.It sounds like you never researched any of this and you are closeminded. Seriously, think it through.Does the intercooler build water? Yes.Where does that water go? It gets blen through under boost and blows out spark. Worst case, it has been shown to hydrolock the engine.How to prevent? Vent to air BOV (but you get the awful swoosh sound). Weep hole. This was proven to be a minor enough boost loss to not matter. All 3.5 ecoboost platforms use this method to prevent misfire. Can you find one warranty denied? Can you find it causing problems? Can you find any performance loss with it. Nope. None. Zero. Zilch.Please, do your homework. You sound like a stubborn little kid that can't accept other opinions. I will agree that this fix is completely stupid. No owner should have to do that to make a vehicle perform correctly. This is why I decided not to own an ecoboost. I want a problem free ownership experience and also not have to perform basic maintenance very often. Ford will realize the 3.5 ecoboost mistake soon enough as the Gen 2 ecoboost seems worse than the Gen 1 ecoboost. I can't wait to see what comes next. For now, extremely happy with my non ecoboost family of vehicles<img src="/styles/default/xenforo/smilies/biggrin.gif"  class="smilie" loading="lazy" alt=":biggrin:" title="Biggrin    :biggrin:" data-shortname=":biggrin:" />End of the story on this. You cannot disprove the fact that the intercooler builds water. Further, you have no idea what it affects. Lastly, you have no idea how to fix it. Good luck with it!</blockquote>
