Common in older V-shaped engines, especially around the valve covers, oil pan, or rear main seal.
Cooling system issues
Overheating problems can arise from a faulty thermostat, water pump, or radiator.
Timing chain problems
Can occur in V8 engines if the timing chain stretches or the tensioner fails, leading to poor engine performance.
Fuel system issues
Problems such as clogged fuel injectors or a failing fuel pump can cause rough idling or poor acceleration.
Exhaust manifold leaks
Common in V8 engines, leading to exhaust noise, reduced performance, and potential emissions issues.
Mass air flow sensor failure
Can lead to incorrect air-fuel mixture and poor engine performance.
Throttle body problems
Dirty or malfunctioning throttle body can cause erratic idling and poor acceleration.
Transmission issues
Automatic transmissions in the F-150 can suffer from issues such as slipping, hard shifting, or transmission fluid leaks.
