Misfires

This engine configuration can face issues with ignition coil packs and spark plugs, leading to engine misfires and rough idling.

Fuel injector problems

V8 engines can experience clogged or faulty fuel injectors, causing poor fuel economy and performance issues.

Valve cover gasket failure

The V-shaped design can lead to valve cover gasket failures, resulting in oil leaks and potential engine damage if not repaired.

Crankshaft position sensor failure
