    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    It's running great. I think i might have a cop intermittently dropping once in a while as a get a slight quiver at idle. They are the original coils to swapped to the new engine so doesnt suprise me, I have yet to look into it. I pulled the console apart as I acquired a ford bidirectional remote...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    It is yet to be a daily driver so I'm not too worried about brake life at this point, more or less make it safe. It needs a left rear caliper too. The piston is retracted too far. the super duty pads were about $29. Probably cheaper than my cost at work for the standard motorcrafts. I'll worry...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    The harness connects at the back side of the sensor. The sensor is located in the rear left side of the engine (front bank in a transverse mounted engine) behind a rubber grommet, behind a heat shield where the engine meets the trans about 4 inches above the oil pan. The sensor is only about 4...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    That's probably the most difficult way on one of these. The ckp is behind the bank 2 turbo/catalyst, behind a heat shield, inside the front of the bellhousing . But yes that would work too. Sent from my SAMSUNG-SM-N910A using Tapatalk

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    What SilverSH0 describes is true. That is called wide open throttle fuel cut off. The reason I did not do that was to prevent possible firing by the pcm not seeing a full wot signal. The injector connectors are easily accessed on the top of the intake manifold. Either way works but if you don't...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    Radiator, cac condensor and fan back in. Both widebands changed. Cleaned and swapped the heated pcv valve and intake fitting so no possible mil. Ol Smoky is alive. Filled and purged the oil filter, then cranked 6 times with injector harness unplugged to build oil pressure. Fired right up...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    The old flex plate looked fine, the converter didn't look like it got overheated, I used the heated flusher at work just because. Didn't have any signs of contamination. The old flex plate and tone ring swapped over no issue. Just make sure to torque the bolts to the crankshaft. Sent from my...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    Just a small update, got all my sensors and coils swapped over, the crankshaft trigger wheel does need to match the sensor it is designed for. The 2010 engine trigger wheel has less teeth, more spaces than the 2016 wheel. Got the converter seal and left axle seal changed. Got the engine and...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    I know this is someone else's thread so I don't want to take it over. I recently posted to Facebook and had a few requests in regards to the engine replacement from 2010 to later years and whether or not the cam sensors or crank sensors will simply just swap over. I have read the other posts of...

    Just got home with the new engine. Drove 400 miles round trip to Wisconsin from Manteno, IL. looked it over pretty well. Its pretty much complete minus accessories. Turbos are clean and no wear. Spark plugs are original and with no wear. Inside the valve cover is spotless. The aluminum on the...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    I will let you know if I find anything else out or run in to anything else. I just put a deposit on a 2016 explorer interceptor 3.5 eb with 4200 miles that includes turbos. Their asking total will be around 1700 all said and done. I checked the ptu fluid in mine and it looks like metallic and...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    Meant to say sa me part number short blocks not long blocks the new long blocks use a different number for each year. I'm only assuming that's to designate year in the part listing but unsure. They don't give us all the info on changes from model year to year. If they did it would make this...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    Yeah I was able to determine that the rwd use a different bellhousing bolt pattern vs. The fwd version among the other differences. The explorers list a different part number for 2013 - 2014. The 2010-2011 sho list the same au7z-6006-arm. There seem to be more used explorer engines available vs...

    2011 SHO Engine Replace

    So far looking in the workshop manual the engines seem the same for a 2010 sho vs 2013 explorer Sport. Intake vct only on both engines. I think later ones got ti-vct. Gonna run Part numbers for the explorer Tomorrow. The repl engine for the sho reman is au7z-6006-arm.
