2012 Ford F-150 3.5L V6 EcoBoost COLOSSAL ENGINE DAMAGE Full Teardown

Another weekly dose of your catastrophic engine forensics! Every week you can find a new teardown of some abused, misused and/or poorly designed engine. I've got over 150 videos of failed engine teardowns on this channel. This weeks engine is a 3.5L Ecoboost V6 from a 2012 Ford F150 courtesy of Greg Merrill in Holland MI. This 200K example was an auction purchase which was thought to have another problem. After some work, it decided to fix itself and although this engine is completely destroyed, IT STILL RAN! This engine while having a VERY apparent failure doesn't give a ton of clues as to why it failed. What do you think caused this failure? My name is Eric and I own and run a full service auto salvage business called Importapart, located in the Saint Louis area. Part of our model includes dismantling blown up and core engines to salvage and resell the good, usable parts from them. We do not rebuild engines, merely supply parts to those that do! If you'd like to buy parts from this engine or anything else I've torn down you can email us at [email protected] or go to www.Importapart.com and peruse our latest inventory. I really hope you enjoyed this video, as always I love all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism. Catch you on the next one! -Eric
