@Christopher Tyacke It's called flood mode and I think most Ford's have it. Whenever it's cold I always do that until the oil pressure rises to prevent cam phaser failure in my 3.5L ecoboost.

Is that True?..I love this channel...learn something new everyday...Thanks guys

I learned an even better tip. Start the engine and depress the brake pedal and gas pedal fully for 11 seconds, preferably in front of a police station.

It's like that on all fords

It will kill your battery

I did misspeak on that.

@@DrivenWildOutdoors not a big deal. Ford should have put the blow off valve just in front of the throttle body, which is a much bigger mistake than you made. ;) At least then the recirculating air would be cooled and balanced between both turbos.

Bingo!

Thank you!

The current 2.7L is a Dual injected unit, and no longer has use of a catch can as the port injectors will clean the intake valves. It is however, more than happy to put a little fuel in the crankcase, so I would concur with the 5,000 mile oci. Letting the engine run before shutting off is for dinosaur oil cooled turbo cars. These are water-cooled. This also has passive coolant flow, which uses convection heat to passively backflow coolant when the engine shuts off. These are amongst the best cooled, and highest temperature rated turbos of any engine, alongside VW's EA888.This is the same motor that is in essentially every work truck F-150. It's a workhorse, not a 90's tuner engine. Treat it alright, and it'll be fine. Don't treat it alright, probably still fine. Neglect it altogether, then you may get some issues.

Catch can is not needed. Show me coated valves from an Ecoboost and I'll give you $1000. It's a myth

@@jacobstrutner8232OK, I have a 2016 F150 /w 3.5EB and never put a catch can (43000 miles), I am putting one on it now, because my '22 2.7EB Wildtrak. I just thought I'd put one on the 2.7 due to ease... I put it on at about 2k miles. I changed the oil at 3k for a cross country trip and at 6k miles I can see oil on the bottom of the catch can dip stick. That oil would have gone back through the intake... Does the catch can help on duel injection?!? I personally don't know, but how can it hurt to remove blowby oil? It's still a closed system.

ah, the old 500-1000 mile oil change fallacy

Thank you!

Thank you for watching.

Thank you Rob for tuning in.

Thank you

Thank you for watching!

Thank you! I try to cram as much info into a 30 minute or less video as possible. Lol

I agree and they are Backing up by using all the plastic and composite parts and snap on hose clamps

Thank you for watching!

Thank you!

I agree, Thanks for checking out the video 👍

Where did you get the Catch can? Easy to install? How much fluid are you collecting?

Thank you for watching. I have an update coming soon on the next 2.7

@@DrivenWildOutdoorswhen?

Awesome. Good to hear.

Dang dude. Save some Fords for the rest of us 😂

@@alwayzAngry I know right, if it’s any consolation my bronco has been on order for a year and a half 😂🤣

Congratulations on getting your Bronco! Good idea on your oil change regiment 👍

waste of oil

Letting it idle after a hard run is extremely important. If towing a heavy load up a long steep grade in the Rocky Mountains (as an example)...it would be best to let the engine idle for 3 to 5 minutes before turning off. Otherwise, I agree not necessary if doing a run for groceries at local corner market.

It is always best when running it under heavy load to allow the engine to idle for a few minutes, this will give the best longevity.

Water pump doesn't run with engine off or oil. You're cooking those turbos

@@jacobstrutner8232 The water doesn't drain from the turbos. It allows it the water to soak the heat from the turbos. Here's an explanation from Garrett: "Water cooling’s main benefit actually occurs after the engine has been shut down. Heat stored in the turbine housing and exhaust manifold “soaks back” into the center section of the turbocharger after shutdown."

Why do you think that because they are water cooled that they slowly cool down? If this coolant is not getting run through the big radiator with fan/s pulling cool air through the radiator that will help cool the coolant, then the coolant left in the lines when you stop the truck, is not going to be cool any longer..

@@frandanco6289 Turbos can take heat, they're designed for that. It's when they cool down rapidly that causes damage. Having that extra volume of water in them allows them to cool down more slowly than the old oil only design. That's why with old turbos you would keep the car running so the oil can circulate in them and cool them down slowly because as soon as you turned the car off the oil stopped circulating and there is not enough volume of oil to cool them down.

I agree! And thank you for the compliment! We personally run synthetic in most of our vehicles. The Broncos are still on the blend, however after the oil change and oil samples Im moving to a full synthetic. I want something with the magnesium detergent versus calcium if I can find it. Of course I’m not recommending anyone to do that. That’s just what we’re doing on our Broncos.

When you say "hard throttle", are you talking WOT level, or less than?

Thank you for watching!

Get the tremor package if you can afford it. Well worth the extra $4k.

@@rockymntdan1 Hello. Do you know how much payload and towing is lost from the Tremor package? I do like the tremor package so it might be worth it. Thank you.

I haven’t been able to get a solid answer on this but it seems that if the oil temperature is too high the auto start stop will not turn the engine off, I always disable whenever I power up and I do know that there’s a way to permanently disable it but haven’t yet looked into that. Thanks for watching

Blow-offs (BOV) sound cool, however it depends on how you use your truck. If you are building boost at a high level then having a BOV can protech the compressor from damage, when the throttle plate closes with a high level of boost being created the force of air then backs up through the charge pipes (compressor surge) back to the compressor on the turbo which can cause turbo damage. This is not under normal or even slight performance levels. Bov's also help to prevent turbo lag, because as the charged air cant flow to the intake it backs up and slows the momentum of the turbo causing lag. The 3.0 in the Bronco Raptor has a system that helps to keep the turbo spooled up with short breaks in the throttle position. The factory bypass works great IMO and I do not see a need for me to add a BOV with my driving/use. Consulting with a good turbo shop can give you better advice based on your wants/needs of performance.

@@DrivenWildOutdoors great info on the BOV. What about after market intercooler pipes? Any benefit?

I don’t know if it’s a cost issue, however I personally do not like them because in some vehicles I know for a fact it helps with heat distribution. If you use a bronco the way they built it I’m sure it’ll be a dust and mud collector. Other than that I have no idea

@@DrivenWildOutdoors ... agree with the heat distribution. Also, the covers offer sound insulation from the GDI engines. Since, most GDI engines tend to sound like an older diesel. Thanks for the reply.

Why would you want a cover? Just insulates the engine to hold in the heat when you don't want that and it's ugly

@@jacobstrutner8232 .. an engine cover does not need to be ugly if properly designed. Also, keep in mind that we want an engine to get to normal operating temp quickly, so it goes from "OPEN LOOP" to "closed loop" for emissions. Virtually no side effects of having an engine cover.

We can, thanks for the feedback 👍

Sn plus on the API rating is required. Of course Amsoil is a great product, as long as it’s rated for boosted engines so it has a low vaporization it should work well. What mileage are you changing your oil at?

@@DrivenWildOutdoors was thinking about 5000 miles, but would it be better to do the change earlier to get the break-in oil out?

@@monkeybiznessoffroad I always change my oil at around 2000 miles on a new engine, I guess you could say it’s a personal belief. I will be checking the oil filter as well as sending the oil out for a proper analyzing report. I just want a baseline for the engine so I can keep an eye on it in the future

I don’t know enough about Lucas oil products to give you a good answer. I can definitely look into it

@@DrivenWildOutdoors thanks for the reply I loved the video. It really is a good engine and now I know more about turbos 👍🏻

No it’s too thick and could destroy your engine because the thin oil that it calls for, it needs to get to all of the moving parts and tight places.

In my experience yes the only thing I don’t like is the clicking noises, but that’s all part of the VCT. However, having your dealer listen to it the next time you have an opportunity would probably be best.

I have a 2020 Raptor and would like to hear your question answered as well.

Some would argue it’s not necessary but it can only help, it will not hurt it

Completely unnecessary. Never been proven with a real Ecoboost that valve get coated.

Ford Tuned it, not me. Lol

Yes, it just a few more miles I will be doing an oil change video and we will address where the mystery 1 to 3/4 of a quart of oil is. Thanks for watching!

kzfaq.info/get/bejne/gZedhLKe0L3NnKc.html

@@DrivenWildOutdoors Perhaps it's in the oil cooler ???

Isn't this dual port injection and direct injection? I'm not a ford guy but thought they do both to clean the top end and make catch can unnecessary?

Everyone? Less than 52 out of 50,000 sold and on the road. Exploding? Lol

If you look at how it is formed it’s almost twisting in the direction that the turbo spins. I don’t know this for certain but it appears to me that they’re trying to get the air turning inside of the compressor inlet pipe in the direction that the compressor (turbo charge wheel) is spinning. It seems to me this would cause less cavitation.

@@DrivenWildOutdoors That makes sense. Thanks btw, your videos are great.

@@antonisekowski8606 thank you!

Nervous??

What engine?

I did one on the overall engine. Check out our play list. Let me know if it doesn’t answer all of your questions

They do, however lowering the temp after hard driving is recommended

That is a great point. The Broncos computer is supposed to keep it running until temperatures become stable.

I haven't got my Bronco yet I had to reorder for a 22my I'd be curious to know if that's what you're finding with yours? Have you got it hot and stopped on the trail or at a stop light or sign After passing or really working the engine? If so did it shut right off? After the information you gave us regardless I think I'll definitely be looking for a way to shut the start stop off.... I can never remember to hit the button in my wife's car until I start cussing about it..lol also thanks for the video. If and when I ever get my bronco the information is very appreciated I've never had a turbo motor before. Thank you

So is turning off the stop/start potentially better for engine long term? Or is the computer doing something that ultimately is healthiest for engine?

@@DrivenWildOutdoors I own a Subaru with the turbo and auto start/stop so things might be a little different, but it states in the owner manual that the auto start/stop will only function under certain parameters including the engine being sufficiently warmed up/cooled down etc. Just a guess but it might be similar with the Bronco.

Yeah the engine has a little bit of noise due to the wastegate being open so we can fire off the cats and get them up to temperature also the cam phasers have a little bit of noise coming from them and if you notice when the RPMs dropped from 800 to 600 most of that noise goes away because the gates are closed

@@DrivenWildOutdoors Thanks for the reply!

What do you think can be done to make them last longer? More frequent oil changes?

@@DrivenWildOutdoors running top synthetic oil no more then 5k intervals and praying why auto manufacturers did this I don't know gm did it on the baby 2.8 duramax in the Colorado and have had issues with it steel chain would have been better tried and true.

Looks like just about any new engine compartment to me. I agree there is a lot of stuff there 👍

Here is a video that we took of my Becky adding one to her Bronco. If you look at the videos on our channel there are a few of them. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/Z9mVdtN9rq7Qiqs.html

Not a bad idea, but also not mandatory... The engine is dual injected, so you won't get the carbon buildup requiring a manual cleaning unlike older GDI engines.

@@volvo09 The port injection is only at low speed rpm/torque not under boost or higher rpm’s. A first GEN 2.7 will start to build carbon significant enough to cause rough idle somewhere around 100,000 miles., a Gen 2- 2.7 at 100,000 miles does have less carbon buildup however based on the appearance somewhere between 160 and 200 is where cleaning would be needed. But remember before it gets bad enough to clean, you could potentially lose horsepower and efficiency in the process. of course driving habits dictate a lot. thank you for the comment and we appreciate you watching our channel 👍

I like them on both on the 2.7, and the 2.3. I have asked the local Ford service rep if it will void my warranty if I install one and I’m waiting on that answer. If there’s no warranty issues then yes I will be installing one

​@@DrivenWildOutdoors I'm looking to get one for my 2021 F-150. I've wondered why Ford doesn't install them and all I can think of is that the blowby is so insignificant that it's not worth adding one. Once you get an answer back from Ford, it'll make another great video for the channel. Thanks!

I agree

It was 100.00 add on so I figured why not. I don’t need it where I live but just in case I travel somewhere that I do I figured I couldn’t go wrong. Good Eye 👍

No it was a new wireless mic that I used that did not perform so well. My apologies for the horrible sound

Apparently, it's this video. I had sound only on the left when watching this, but immediately after, I watched a different video, and had sound on both sides.

Its your end..

There are oil lines feeding the bearing assembly.

Thanks.

I am considering it.

Pointless waste of money.

That’s probably the cam, phasers timing and waste gates open, typically when idling around 800 RPMs, and once it drops to 600 the gates close, and it should quiet and down

I am an ase tech, I always change the factory oil and filter on my own NEW vehicles at 500 to 1000 miles.I would change it asap!

1000 miles ago it should have been changed

BMW changes ALL the fluids on their M Cars at 1,200 miles, on their dime... They also have an oil temperature sensor that will not allow you to rev their M engines until the oil temperature reaches the level they want it at.. I would have already dumped the oil and filter in your Bronco and added full synthetic oil and a new filter..

Since both engines are very close in design the same basic info applies in my opinion
