Technical Advantages

2‑5 Day Turnaround

Streamlined machining, real‑time parts tracking, and parallel QC stages mean most EcoBoost units are completed within one work‑week.*

IMI‑Certified Engineers

Our team rebuilds hundreds of three‑cylinder EcoBoost engines every year, following Ford's published tolerances and our own tighter internal limits.

Long‑Term Protection

Upgrades and revised parts address wet‑belt wear, coolant‑intrusion porosity, and turbo oil‑feed restrictions before they cause repeat failure.

Industry‑Leading Warranty

12 months / 12,000 miles* comprehensive cover

Ford 1.0 L EcoBoost — Common Engine Problems & Solutions

Below are the four failures we encounter most often, along with the engineering steps we take to prevent their return.

1Wet‑Belt Degradation (Timing Belt‑in‑Oil)

Over time the belt's rubber absorbs oil, sheds fibres, and can block the oil pick‑up, causing a sudden drop in pressure—typically between 60 k and 80 k miles.

Our Fix:

  • Replace belt & tensioner with latest OEM specification
  • Chemical flush and clean sump pick‑up
  • Inspect and, if required, renew oil pump and relief valve

2Coolant Intrusion (Head/Gasket Porosity)

Early heads suffer from casting porosity that allows coolant into one or more cylinders, leading to misfire (P0300‑P0304) and potential hydrolock.

Our Fix:

  • Pressure‑test head, dye‑check for cracks
  • Replace with revised casting and MLS gasket
  • Full coolant flush and system bleed

3Turbocharger Oil Starvation (Bearing Collapse)

Sludge in the oil feed restricts flow to the turbo's centre housing, accelerating bearing wear and causing blue smoke and loss of boost.

Our Fix:

  • Strip, balance, and rebuild turbo with 360° thrust bearing
  • Install new oil feed and return lines
  • Clean sump and pick‑up; fit high‑flow mesh

4Intake‑Valve Carbon Build‑Up (Rough Idle)

Direct injection means the back of the intake valves never see fuel, allowing hard carbon deposits that cause cold‑start misfires and reduced MPG.

Our Fix:

  • Walnut‑shell blast intake valves
  • Install catch‑can to reduce oil vapour deposits
  • ECU update to optimise blow‑by control
