Summary

Some 2016-2017 F-150 vehicles equipped with a 2.7L EcoBoost engine and built on 1-Apr-2016 and through 1-Jan-2017 may exhibit a rough idle in neutral or park at normal operating temperature with oil consumption greater than 1 liter (1 quart) in less than 4,800 km (3,000 miles).

Service Procedure

  1. Does the vehicle exhibit blue smoke from the exhaust only after a cold soak with no additional symptoms such as excessive oil consumption and/or runs rough?

(1). Yes – this article does not apply. Refer to other applicable articles or the Powertrain Control/Emissions Diagnosis (PC/ED) Manual for normal diagnostics.

(2). No – proceed to Step 2.

  1. Replace both left and right cylinder heads. Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 303-01.

(1). NOTE: During service and repair, achieving proper torque of the crankshaft pulley bolt is critical. Incorrect torque may allow the bolt to loosen resulting in the timing gear breaking and engine damage. Replacement of the bolt is also critical to the repair. The bolt requires a 4 stage torque procedure:

  • Hold the pulley using a universal holding tool OTC 4754 or equivalent.
  • Stage 1: 225 Nm (166 lb.ft)
  • Stage 2: Loosen 360°
  • Stage 3: 35 Nm (26 lb.ft)
  • Stage 4: Tighten 270°

(2). Refer to WSM, Section 303-01. The bolt torque procedure can be found in the crankshaft front seal removal and installation procedure or in the engine assembly procedure.
