I've torn down at least one blown up, failed, or core engine on this channel for the last 3+ years! I tear these engines down to try to find out what happened, why it happened and perhaps what can be saved from these catastrophes. Here are a few of my favorites:
GM 6.2L L86 MASSIVE Hole in the block https://youtu.be/qxFFTHbJQ7Y
2021 Police Explorer EXTREME Damage https://youtu.be/FyS6hsqR9qY
Mercedes Bi-Turbo V8 M278 https://youtu.be/ubMyWT49IWs
GM 1.4L Turbo Got HOT https://youtu.be/lSkwCKRwp4w
Ford 1.0L 3Cyl Ecoboost https://youtu.be/0yx1-50iqnA
Today's teardown is a sad one. This is a 2.3L Ecoboost from a 2019 Ford Ranger with ONLY 104K miles. This was a core return at a local salvage yard and REEKS of both improper maintenance and neglect. This type of failure is NOT something I would just these engines by as most engines would wind up with a similar fate.
Why am I doing this? My name is Eric and I own/run a full service auto recycler called Importapart. Part of our model includes buying blown up, core and failed engines to dismantle and salvage good parts from. We do not rebuild or repair engines, merely supply parts to those who do.
I really hope you enjoyed this teardown. As always I love all of the comments, feedback and even the criticism.
Catch you on the next one!
