Come along as we have a look at this 2009 Ford Escape 2.5 that was dropped off with a single cylinder misfire that turned out to be more that the average coil pack.

If it's fogging up the lense does that mean it's still alive ?
…those burnt exhaust valves usually leave the cylinder a little at a time…like slow cutting torch damage…saw quite a few when I was a cylinder head man about 50 years ago…
I've got an 09 with the 3.0 … 241K miles and still going strong. I do my own maintenance.
heh Eric first off love u,, 2018 ford cylinder temp sensor now # 2 cyl misfire and coolant in it can it b saved by head gaket? Thanks Bobcattim in Oh
My 2002, 0356 coil spring was not pushed over spark plug.
Very thorough and knowledgable mechanic๐
There's your problem lady The edge of one of the valves is missing a portion of other sealing Surface yikes ๐ฌ …. See what happens when you do your own Spark plug maintenance ๐คฃ kidding Good catch on the messed up valve Eric O @SouthMainAutoRepairLLC
What kind of lady leaves a rotting plate of food on the floor of her vehicle? Probably someone who has not done regular maintenance on that escape๐คข๐คฎ
Iโve lost my dongle like 3 times customers never bring them back either
Dude I hope that one day I can be this good at fixing cars and this knowledgeable about it. I mean Iโm not stupid but Iโm not anywhere near this guys level! Good stuff sir! Keep up the great work!
I got that same led light, I really like it alot
How did you know it was on the compression stroke and not the exhaust stroke?
Does your scan tool have relative compression function under special functions?
Old school mechanical methodical approach with good use of tech!
Enjoy watching you work.
Do you have a link for the bore scope?
what can you do to prevent this from happening if any/many thing? run cleaners? prevent main everything? dont drive, lol?
Hang on….there's just a plate of food on the floor?
So fn cool video. So glad you did that camera
You are the greatest, really learn alot from your very informative vids thank you
So much better than the car wizard
How does Mrs.O deal with you?
I got a steal on a yukon because wrech after wrench couldn't find a leaking head gasket!!!
"Cold miss" is how the owner described it. It hid except for rusty plugs in 6-8. Torqued the head, added liquid glass.
I'm dealing with a p0301…misfire on number one cylinder, ford's are nortourious with there misfires, but this is a 2017 with less than 30k miles, no way I should be getting this code…changed the plug and coil, no change, engine runs perfect..wtf?
Nice work. I have a Misfire in my Escape. Still occurs after changing plugs and coils. Ses to me if that didnt fix it, whatever is causing it will be very expensive. Ugh
Cool video thanks for sharing
WHO LEAVES AN OPEN PLATE OF FOOD ON THEIR CAR FLOOR WTF
BOOM! You Da Man. I have a 2010 Ford Escape 180K just started to misfire a little. Great research video for me. Thanks
Any people who own a Ford escape with a V6. Mine is acting weird but it's not throwing any check engine codes. When you first put it in drive or in reverse the idle drops low and it runs really rough, makes a weird noise and it feels like it's going to die, until it starts moving then it runs and shifts fine. And only once you come to a full stop and wait at a red light it will feel like it's going to die again. Any ideas?
if you had a camera operator we could see what you were looking at perhaps
Yep. Used the camera. Very useful.
You didn't rotate the engine to the spot where both valves on number 3 should be closed
Can you give hand for me I need help with my car
Great diagnostic! Thanks for taking the time to explain the little things.
Mine has the v6. That looks like a dream to work on
Could a lean injector burn the valve?
Have 07 ford escape 3.0 200k miles now an then back fires thru intake no codes
I have a 2015 Ford Fusion SE 2.5l engine misfires periodic. I replaced all 4 ignition coils, plugs, and now all 4 injectors. Still having the issue when driving. I may have to take it to Ford because it mudt be a short, or PCM issue. I know thid much Ford will never sell me another vehivle after this pos!
I have a P0301 on a 98 Integra Type R, and already went through spark plugs, leads, entire distributor replaced with a known good, fuel injectors to fix a rich condition (replaced all 4), and did compression test (210psi all 4 cylinders) and did a leak down on Cyl 1 for shits and giggles and it's perfectly sealed. Checked Cyl 1 with a boroscope as well, very clean inside, nothing to note, looked at the valves, the piston and cylinder walls. I don't feel any misfire when driving at all, but without fail it sets a code every 10-40 miles, depending on how it's feeling that day I suppose. I'm beginning to suspect a lightweight flywheel to be the cause (9 lbs instead of the stock 16 lbs) but really don't want to go down that road yet, since I believe it would throw random misfire codes or all 4 cylinders, not just Cyl 1. Anyone have any ideas I may not have thought of yet? I should also mention, not burning any oil or coolant, engine was rebuilt about 7 years ago.
Unfortunately for you (and the rest of us who work with our hands) Milwaukee tools are little to no better than the cheap jank you find at Hazard Fart.
Hey I have a Mazda Tribute 2.0L it runs rough at idle and wants to die then it will eventually stall but runs fine on the highway please help
Good thing that valve chip was on the near side to the spark plug hole.
Thx Enjoyed that!
Whats the 2007 Chevy with 53 codes? I hope they scrapped that thing.
plz help me. i Change engine. there is a problem on 1 and 4 cylinder when i run more than 120 km\h. if i run less than 120KMh its all right.
Lol definitely a stoners car, the pipe and random food laying around.
Great video, have a 05 Escape with misfire but no code's, praying it's nothing like that.๐ค๐ป๐ค๐ป
Heโs both but more of a TECHNICIAN. Awesome ๐๐พ
My Wife's car cam belt snapped and took out all 8 exhaust valves they got bent real good needed two valve seats also. Rebuilt myself and she's still good 100kmiles/ 5 years later. Headwork cost ยฃ200 GBP and was well worth it.
with a car that dirty a missfire is the least of her worries
That what they say she was ate before she was 9
