Many articles on carbonization of intake values due to 2.3L made in Mexico direct injection ego boosts.
Well to meet EPA standands FORD engineers added a Oil separation unit going from exhausted PCV back into intake air supply.This was the old PCV breath system for re-burning oil blowby.
When turbo adds boosts , the oil mist goes from engine blow-by into exhaust, past turbo exhaust impeller into rear exhaust.
On the air intake side of turbo boost , its impeller draws air also, from the PVC oil mist tubes, past the oil separator unit, back through intake tube then enters the intake side of the turbo to boost the intake manifold, or something like this.
My Porsche turbo V8 did not require an oil separator unit, but had oil collecting more on right bank intake tube, then left. That high pressure mist of oil would go into a fluid stage and settle at the bottom of those air intake tubes after the air cleaners. That V8 4.5 was 450 hp, now a 4.8L up to 600 hp!
No reports of carbonization of intake values, like the pre 2024 2-.3L Ego Boost.
No look at the 2.3 L 2024 Mustang ego boost engine. It now has a throttle body low pressure injector added to prevent intake values carbon issues. That adds gasoline to clean the intake values to combat carbonization!
Will Ford be made to retro fit all non dual fuel engines? The engine module needs to be change to dual fuel low pressure injector , new intake manifolds and maybe do away with oil separator unit necessary to past EPA tests.
At 100,000 miles or sooner, our 2.3L Ego Boost intake valves not cleaned by the newer dual low throttle body injectors will need serious cleaning, or they may not meet certain states emission standards.
Retrofitting thousands of 2.3L to meet EPA standards will cost millions, but the warrantee does not cover it. So save now or sell your Bronco before it fails certain state emission inspections and your out hundred of dollars. Remember F(ix) O(r) R(epair) D(aily)!
Read your warrantee! See my 2022 attached. What's not covered starts on page 24 or so.
