If you are installing a replacement long block engine into a 2010-2012 Taurus, MKS, MKT or Flex vehicle equipped with a 3.5L GTDI engine, the components listed above must be swapped over from the original engine to the replacement long block before the engine is installed into the vehicle.
Failing to swap the cam sensors, crank sensor, crankshaft tone wheel and coolant inlet tube before the engine is installed will require the engine to be removed again to complete the repair.
