Ford V10 Engine Replacement [Labor & Parts]

Ford V10 engines are high-performance engines that you may at some point need to replace due to faulty parts or malfunctions.

While V10 engines are supposed to be high quality and last around 200,000 miles, if you need to replace them, you should be aware of the associated costs. 

On average, the cost of replacing a Ford V10 engine is about $4,760. The cost of labor is an average of about $1,260, while the cost of parts averages out to about $3,500.

This means that a DIY engine replacement will cost closer to $3,500, whereas going to an auto body shop will cost closer to $4,760. 

In this cost guide, we’ll explore the costs associated with replacing this engine in Ford vehicles by comparing different factors. 

Cost Breakdown for a Ford V10 Engine Replacement

The costs of replacing a Ford V10 engine will differ based on whether or not you pay for professional labor. Some individuals may find that their knowledge of auto labor is sufficient enough to do a DIY engine replacement. 

In this case, you will pay less overall, given that you aren’t paying an hourly auto labor rate or extra fees. Otherwise, you can pay for both parts and labor. 

Below, we’ll break down the costs associated with both DIY and professional labor for this replacement job. We’ll also cover discrepancies in the cost of V10 engines among different retailers.

And we’ll look at factors that affect the cost of this auto replacement job, such as auto labor rates in different locations, costs for different Ford vehicles, and more. 

Ford V10 Engine Replacement – DIY

You may feel that your knowledge of mechanics is good enough to replace your vehicle’s engine on your own. If this is the case, you could save a lot of money on labor costs.

Given the fact that the average cost of Ford V10 engines (this is parts alone) is around $3,500, a DIY installation will cost you around $3,500. 

Ford V10 Engine Price Quotes

To get a better idea of the price of replacement parts, take a look at these price quotes for new Ford V10 engines for sale at online retailers.

Note that if you purchase parts online, prices will vary depending on taxes, shipping costs, and whether or not you’re purchasing the engine at its MSRP or not.

ATK Engines Remanufactured Crate Engine 6.8L V10 ($4,816)

This V10 engine is fit for 2005-2009 Ford F-Series trucks. It’s a remanufactured crate engine designed to weed out any engine malfunctions or issues. Adding the core charge costs an extra $960. 

High Performer Ford 6.8 Engine 415 V10 New Reman ($5,030)

This V10 engine is fit for 2002-2005 Ford F250, F350, F450, and F550 Super Duty vehicle models. A core deposit costs an extra $800 for this particular engine.

Engine and Transmission Center Ford 6.8 415 Engine V10 OEM Replacement ($3,253)

Fit for 2000-2001 Ford Excursion, F250, F350, F450, and F550 vehicle models, this V10 6.8L engine is ready for installation. You’ll have to part with an extra $800 for the core deposit.

Ford V10 6.8L Master Engine Rebuild Kit ($1,849)

The last price quote we’ll share is this one found on eBay, which is actually for an engine rebuild kit, including all parts necessary. You may save some money by purchasing an engine rebuild kit, as opposed to a new engine that is already built. 

This V10 engine kit works for Ford models between 1997-2005, complete with rings, rod bearings, a gasket set, pistons, main bearing, an oil pump, pin bushings, a camshaft, lifters, and a timing kit.

Ford V10 Engine Replacement – Professional Labor ($1,260)

Unfortunately, not everyone has the skill, time, or knowledge to do auto labor at home. It can be arduous work, and replacing an engine isn’t exactly something to do without serious planning or on a whim with a YouTube tutorial. 

If you can’t DIY this replacement job, then you’ll need to turn to an auto body shop and pay for professional labor.

On average the cost of professional auto labor across the US is about $105 per hour. However, it could range anywhere from $80-$130 per hour depending on your location and other factors. 

On average, it takes an auto body shop around 12 hours of labor to remove and replace a vehicle’s engine. Obviously, this estimate could be slightly faster or slower, depending on what type of vehicle you have.

However, it’s safe to estimate that, given the time frame and average hourly rate of labor, you’ll pay around $1,260 for professional labor when replacing an engine.

Long-Term Costs of Ford V10 Engine Replacement

While many people make sure to know the one-time costs of replacing certain vehicle parts, you should also know about the long-term costs. Some parts will need to be replaced more than once, such as parts that are known to be faulty.

Common issues with Ford V10 engines, in particular, include failing spark plugs, failing engines, rough running vehicles, stalling, and warped pistons. 

Since these issues tend to be common with this type of engine, let’s look at how often you might need to replace your Ford’s V10 engine. 

Ford V10 engines are built to last up to 300,000 miles in some cases. However, it’s more likely that you’ll get about 200,000 miles maximum out of a V10 6.8L engine during its lifetime.

And, if you tend to use your Ford for high-performance jobs or use your Ford frequently, which most drivers do if they own Fords that use the V10 (Super Duty models), your engine could fail before then. 

This means that it’s likely you’ll have to replace your Ford’s V10 engine twice at most, but more probably once. Therefore, the long-term costs of replacing a V10 engine are about $4,760-$9,520 .

Factors Affecting the Cost of a Ford V10 Engine Replacement

There are several things that may cause fluctuations in the overall price of an engine replacement. We already considered the possibility of replacing your Ford V10 engine at home to save money.

But aside from that, you may find that costs vary depending on the type of Ford vehicle you own, how old your vehicle is, where you live, and whether or not you have to get associated repairs. 

Ford Vehicle Models

There are several Ford models that are known for using the V10 engine. These include the Ford Excursion, E250-E450, and F250-F550 models. 

If you have an E250-E450 model, especially from the earlier model years, it’s likely that you’ll have to pay more to replace the V10 engine since the engines have faced lots of changes over the years.

On the other hand, owners of Ford Excursions may face less significant issues with their model since its main issue tends to be failing spark plugs. Due to this, you’ll likely spend less on a V10 engine replacement if you have a Ford Excursion. 

Your location also greatly affects the cost of repairs and replacements when it comes to your Ford vehicle. Across the US, auto labor costs and rates vary.

Individuals in places like California will pay much more than individuals in places like Ohio, for example. 

In fact, CarMD estimates that the average cost of vehicle engine-related repairs varied in 2020 from state to state

California – $410.73 Virginia – $387.76 Louisiana – $380.02 Rhode Island – $371.33 Nevada – $364.59 Ohio – $341.83

Associated Repairs

When you get your engine replaced, there are a few standard extra costs you may have to pay that aren’t included in the cost of engine replacement.

For example, any engine needs good oil, so you may have to get an oil change for your new engine. Further, you’ll want to get coolant for your new engine. 

Below, we’ll look at the average cost of this extra auto work for different Ford V10 models. Note that these figures represent averages over different model years and different labor rates across the United States.

As you can see in the compared costs in the above table, costs for associated auto labor, such as an oil change, will vary depending on which Ford V10 model you own.

It tends to cost more for oil for the Excursion, F250 Super Duty, and F350 Super Duty models than it costs for the E-series models.

And when it comes to coolant flushes, you’ll pay around $85-$200 depending on your V10 vehicle. Costs vary, so keep this in mind and consider flushing the coolant yourself if you’re able to. 

On average, replacing a Ford V10 engine costs around $4,760. Of this estimated total, you’ll pay around $1,260 for labor and around $3,500 for parts alone.

Depending on which Ford V10 model you have, costs will vary, and you’ll also see cost fluctuations based on where you live. 

Keep in mind that an engine replacement is not a frequent part of vehicle maintenance, so long-term costs shouldn’t exceed these estimates by too much.

Engine Swap for a v10 Excursion?

• Add to quote

Not sure it's appropriate to post this here but I feel this is my best location to get food accurate info. I recently purchased a 2005 Eddie Bauer Excursion. Interior is great, body is an 8 out of 10. No frame rot anywhere. Well maintained with all new suspension ect. The V10 is pushing 200k miles and I paid very little for the truck. I rather put a couple grand into this truck then spend 60k on a new f series that has the same towing specs ect. Would ok he better off rebuilding the existing v10 when the time comes? How difficult would it be to do a navigator 5.4 swap. The early 5.4 navis seem yo run for hundreds of thousands of miles and I am thinking might get better gas mileage then the v10. Most important thing is that is reliable as it will see cross country use. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk  

Honestly, if it comes to it you're better off just rebuilding the V10. The amount of wiring harness work, money, and tuning you'd need to get a 5.4L DOHC to run would be better spent just dropping in a 6.2L SOHC or other more modern engine into it. While you're rebuilding the V10 you could have the heads ported, exhaust and intake manifolds extrude honed, and a true dual exhaust system put in. This will make more power which should help your fuel economy. I've been eyeballing some Excursions myself. Ideally I'd like a 7.3L PowerStroke, but they are hard to find in good shape.

A well maintained V10 will last 200-300K miles. The fastest, simplest, cheapest, easiest path of least resistance is to swap a reman V10 in and roll with it. It is very hard to beat factory reliability. Once you start modifying it, you open several doors to possible failure. I see threads like this all the time. Swapping is NEVER cheaper than R&R what was there to begin with. And you won't have the same reliability. Your 1500 miles from home (and your tools and local shop) in a 15 year old, way not stock, modified truck and you're broke down on the side of the road. Who's going to fix it? How many days will you loose to getting back on the road? Now you have a totally stock same truck. You're broke down. You pay the local Ford dealer to fix it and be on your way. If you swap you will spend thousands getting it swapped, running right and tuned. That's on top of a ton of little details to resolve (nickle and dime you). You won't save much this way over all. Swapping to save gas is always a funny idea to me. The thousands you spend to swap and get it running could more easily just be used for fuel. Say you spend an extra $100/trip on fuel running the V10. And say you spend $10,000 to swap and be all up and running (you will likely spend more than that). That's 100 trips. How many trips a year do you take? How many years to break even on the money spent to swap? How much does the truck cost to own and operate and insure above and beyond the swap? Rebuild or get a reman long block and swap them.  

I don't need anymore convincing. Your making too much sense. Thanks for talking me off the ledge lol. Seriously. Now I need to figure out how to get better fuel economy out of it. I get 10mpg per tank of fuel, city and highway and I get 6mpg towing a 7k lb Camper. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk  

I've got 204l on the clock. I just drove round trip from New York to Wyoming 4400 mile round trip towing a 3k lb trailer and it ram like a champ.Doesnt burn oil. Maybe I can get another 100l out if it the way it is. Sent from my SM-G920V using Tapatalk  

5 star tuning can get you a little better fuel milage and power . You have an automatic transmission, so better than 10 mpg is going to be difficult. I believe 5 star tunes , also consist of some trans shift point changes , that may help . I have a 4x4 super cab short bed f250 on 35's , with a manual trans . Across the scales , I am close to 7k lbs . I get 14 on the hiway , and what little I town driving I do , it drops to about 10 . I am right close to 270k miles now , does use a little oil , but is rock solid reliable .  

12-valve Cummins...would be the perfect large SUV.  

Extrudehone is hellaexpensive for the gain.  

Start with the basics, like a good tune-up (plugs, coils, O2 sensors). I would think your mileage should be better. My father had an 08 F-250 w/ the 5.4. That was way anemic, and would struggle to get 12 mpg empty, never mind hauling anything. I would tend to think the V10 though bigger, wouldn't need as much input with the right foot like a 5.4 would. If you want to mod for mileage, your best bet would be make the truck easier to move. If you have upgraded wheels, get a set that just barely fits over the brakes. Something like 16" aluminum wheels, if it'll clear. Also, keep the tire width small, to run as small of a tire as possible. For comparison, the OBS trucks had 215X85R15 tires, or something skinny along those lines. You can also swap cams to a more truck friendly grind. Anything you can do to make torque lower, to keep the rpms lower, will help mileage. Make sure also that you don't leave the front hubs locked, as that will suck down gas. You can even take the front driveshaft off during the warmer months to save some weight. You can take it further if you don't plan on using the 4WD ever, by stripping it out. Bottom line, best you can do is make sure the wheels are easier to turn and take some weight off. If you got some money, a pair of cams to enhance low rpm torque. Other than that, the cost vs. mileage gain will not be worth it, especially when gas is once again, cheap.  

you COULD pick up my supercharger kit? that would make it plenty powerful!  

When the time comes you'll be better off sticking with the V10. I've seen a handful of them in E250/E350 vans go over 300k miles, but when you do have to rebuild it you have a lot of potential. It already makes 10hp/ 70ft.lbs. more then a 4v Navigator engine. If you stay naturally aspirated it will be almost impossible to catch up in the torque category. I did have 1 friend that had a V10 F250 and it responded pretty well to modifications also. If it were me I'd do an intake, tuning, exhaust, and some long tubes while rebuilding and go for another 300k miles, but if you want to step up even more you can go with truck grind cams which will give you decent increases in the power band area you'll be in the most while towing and daily driving. I personally seen that the long tube headers alone with high flow cats made a noticeable difference. All these things would be gains on top of your current output, however if you switched to the Navigator motor you'd have to do all of those, including the cam, just to make up for the large torque loss. Also the intake, headers, and exhaust will increase your gas mileage. You seem more focused on longevity and mileage then power, but if you did want a large power increase you could put a supercharger on it also. A V10 with a Whipple supercharger and a set of long tubes would be a torque MONSTER! Stick with the V10, more power, equal reliability in the engine itself compared to the 5.4, and better reliability in having a factory setup.

Ford V10 Engine Replacement Cost: 2023 Price Guide

If your engine is going out, replacing it is one way to prolong the lifespan of your vehicle.

Unfortunately, prices are high, so you’ll always have to decide if the engine swap is worthwhile or if you’re better off getting a new car.

That’s especially true with the Ford V10, which stopped most manufacturing in 2019 and is officially out of production as of 2021. You’ll have trouble finding a new motor and you’ll pay a premium for a rebuilt long block, simply because it’s hard to find. 

That means the average cost of replacing a Ford V10 engine is $5,500-$12,500. That includes $3,500-$10,500 for the engine itself and an average of $2,000 in labor.

However, depending on where you go, the cost of labor can as much as double, because you can expect the full job to take 8+ hours, and you can pay $40-$200 per hour for labor. 

The table below shows a quick price comparison of Ford V10 engine replacement cost estimates from reputable suppliers:

How Much Does A Ford V10 Engine Replacement Cost?*

The cost of replacing your Ford V10 engine will depend on a few different factors, but mostly the cost of labor and where you go. For example, the three cars equipped with the Ford Triton engine (V10) all cost about the same to swap the engine on. 

The only real price differences are in where you get the long block and what you pay for labor. 

*Note: Prices are estimates and were correct at the time of writing (June 2023). Cost estimates may have changed since, our figures should be used as a starting point for your own research

What Is The Ford V10 Engine? 

Ford’s V10 engine, the Triton, was produced between 1997 and 2021. However, it’s no longer available new and Ford no longer uses it in any of their vehicles.

That’s because modern V6 and V8 engines now run more smoothly and more efficiently than the V10 and provide similar power output.

The V10 was never an ideal engine, because while it provides more power than the V8, the V12 is much more efficient and runs without many of the hiccups inherent in V10 engines. Therefore, most manufacturers don’t use them or phased them out. 

What does that mean for you? If you want to keep your V10 engine, you’ll have to search for a remanufactured model.

Alternatively, you can search a scrapyard for a vehicle with a Triton equipped and then rebuild your own. 

Ford V10 Engine Replacement Price Factors

The cost of replacing your Ford V10 engine will mostly depend on factors like how much you pay for the engine.

However, the actual cost of labor is also very important. 

Short or Long Block 

Any Ford V10 engine is going to run between $3,500 and $10,500 (or potentially a bit more) for the long block. Of course, you can save money by going for the short block, which doesn’t have the cylinder heads, camshafts, valves, valve springs, or head gaskets.

It’s highly unlikely you’ll be able to buy a crate (fully assembled) engine, but if you find one, you can expect the cost to be much higher. 

In general, it’s usually a good idea to swap out the parts that are bad and to keep the rest of the engine. However, going for a long block can save you a great deal on installation costs. 

Used or Remanufactured 

You can’t buy a brand new Ford V10 engine anymore. So you’ll have to choose between secondhand/used and remanufactured/refurbished. The former is cheaper and will typically be as low as a few thousand ($3,500+).

On the other hand, a factory-remanufactured long block will typically run upwards of $8,500. Here, the engine has been disassembled, resurfaced, fitted with new gaskets, and is as close to new as you’re going to get.

In fact, many remanufactured engine blocks even have a warranty. With a used engine, you have no such guarantee. 

Cost of Labor 

The cost of labor may be the most significant part of replacing the engine in your V10 Ford. For example, you can expect it will take 8-15 hours to swap the engine out. This means you’ll pay the mechanic’s rate times that amount of hours.

The national average mechanic’s rate is about $70 for a general technician. On the other hand, you can get away with paying as low as $15 at a mom-and-pop mechanic. But, if you go to a chain shop, rates start at around $94. It’s unlikely you can have a Ford dealer swap the engine out for you. 

In general, expect to pay between $50 and $200 per hour for the technical work completed. That works out to an average of $900-$3,500.

Finally, there will almost always be shop fees, which are usually 5-20% of the total bill. That can be quite a significant fee if your total bill is $3,000 in labor. 

6 Symptoms Of A Bad V10 Engine 

It’s usually easy to notice when your engine is failing. But, how do you tell when it’s time to replace the engine?

Usually, the only real decision point is when it costs more to repair or rebuild the engine than it does to replace it – and you want to keep the truck. 

1. Knocking Engine

Engine knock can cost over $3,000 to fix. And, it’s usually caused by thrown bearings.

When that happens, you might need new cylinders and new rods. That can cost significantly more than a new engine, especially if you have trouble finding new engine parts for your V10. 

2. Fluid and Coolant Issues 

An engine that is wearing out will go through fluid at a significant rate. You might see gasket issues, constant mixing fluids, and constant issues with having to refill the oil.

If you can’t find the leaks or the gaskets are new, it might just be that the engine is wearing down. You could always try a resurface, but dismantling and rebuilding your engine can cost as much as a new one. 

3. Seizing 

If your engine has actually seized, you’ll have to replace it or at least rebuild it.

You might need a new block, new rods, or even a full new short block to repair a seized engine. And chances are, the new V10 will be cheaper. 

4. Smoke from the Exhaust 

Your exhaust should never smoke. If it does, you may have a leak or an airflow issue. Therefore, fixing the issue could be a simple matter of changing gaskets or filters.

On the other hand, it could mean the cylinders are going out, the timing is off, or the injection system is failing. In each case, you could try to replace the one part, but replacing the engine might be a better call if other parts are failing as well. 

5. Overheating 

Your vehicle should not overheat as a regular thing. However, as connections start to degrade, the gaskets start to wear down, and parts wear down which means they are looser and create more heat from friction, your engine will overheat more often.

You can simply refill the coolant more often and be more careful with driving. However, you might also want to replace the engine. 

6. Power Problems 

Engines wear out as they age. This is mostly friction causing the parts to literally wear down.

You’ll also get clogs and built up grease, which can interfere with the efficiency of the engine. And, power connections degrade in your car just like they do in a house or a computer.

So, your engine will lose power over time, meaning you’ll eventually want to replace or rebuild the engine. 

How To Replace A Ford V10 Engine (Videos) 

Replacing an engine is not an easy job. In most cases, it will take you 2-4 days to replace an engine on your own. You may also need someone to help with stabilizing the engine block as it goes in and out of the car.

In addition, you’ll need specialty equipment, although you can often rent this.

Conclusion 

If your Ford Triton engine is going out, you may be able to rebuild it. However, it may be cheaper to replace it. Replacing a Ford V10 engine typically costs between $5,000 and $12,500, depending on what you pay for the engine and what you pay for labor. In either case, the engine itself should cost $3,500-$10,500 depending on the condition and whether you’re buying the short or long block. From there, you’ll have to pay for about 15 hours of labor, and you’ll have a new engine in your truck.

Ford 6.8L V-10 Engine

The 6.8 L (413 CID) SOHC V10 is a variation of the Modular family created for use in large trucks.

Bore size is 90.2 mm (3.552 in) and stroke is 105.8 mm (4.165 in), identical to the 5.4 L V8. Both 2-valve and 3-valve versions have been produced. The 6.8 L uses a split-pin crank with 72° firing intervals and a balance shaft to quell vibrations inherent to a 90° bank angle V10 engine. The engine’s firing order is 1-6-5-10-2-7-3-8-4-9. The 2-valve version was first introduced in 1997, with a 3-valve non-VCT version to follow in 2005. The 3-valve engines were built alongside the 2-valve engines at Ford’s Windsor, Ontario LVL engine line, but moved production to the larger Windsor Engine Plant in 2009.

2-Valve: Vehicles equipped with the 2-valve 6.8 L V10 Modular engine include the following:

3-Valve: Vehicles equipped with the 3-valve 6.8 L V10 Modular engine include the following:

Key features and benefits:

One camshaft in each cylinder head (at the top of each cylinder bank) operating 3 valves, 2 intake and 1 exhaust

SOHC design provides an advanced level of valve control

Deep-skirt engine block and low-friction internal components mean greater reliability and fuel economy

Electronic throttle control uses electronic sensors instead of mechanical linkage to deliver seamless and consistent engine response

Silent-design chain cam drive contributes to durability and helps reduce NVH (Noise, Vibration and Harshness) characteristics

Coil-on-plug ignition system design for high-mileage durability

90,000-mile spark plug maintenance interval with regular fluid and filter changes – under normal driving conditions

Fail-safe cooling system is designed to help protect the engine from potential damage due to a loss of coolant. If the engine overheats, it will automatically switch from 10-cylinder operation to alternating 5-cylinder operation. The vehicle will continue to operate, but with limited engine power. This system allows the driver to travel a short distance to obtain service or reach a service facility if the engine overheats. The distance that can be traveled depends upon vehicle load, outside temperature and road conditions

Ford V10 Firing Order

Known Problems:

The Ford V10 is a very reliable motor, and has been known to exceed 300,000 miles. It does have a few known problems:

Spark Plugs Shooting Out The The Heads:

Spark plugs on the V10 need to be checked and torqued if needed. They are known to come loose and shoot out of the cylinder head and strip out the threads. The repair involved reaming the spark plug hole, tapping it and inserting a helicoil to hold a factory spark plug.

You can find these repair kits at the bottom of this page.

Engine Running Rough / Misfiring:

If you’re having a problem with your V10 running rough / missing, it may be your Coil On Plugs (COP). The V10 has an ignition coil mounted on top of each spark plug. These can fail over time if they’re exposed to moisture. The ones closest to the firewall are the ones that most commonly fail (#5 & #10). The engine may not display a check engine light if it has a misfire. If you can get access to a diagnostic tool that can read the codes on the V10, you should be able to get codes from the bad COP. The code will directly correspond to the bad coil. The codes are:

You can find good deals on replacement coils at the bottom of this page.

Exhaust Manifold Studs Rust And Break:

The factory studs rust and break off causing an exhaust leak. The repair involves removing the remaining nuts to remove the exhaust manifold. Then a nut is welded on to the remaining stud. The heat of the welder usually causes it to come loose, and can be removed by using a socket on the welded nut.

Oil Consumption:

The V10 is known for using oil. It’s not uncommon for them to use up a quart of oil between oil changes.

If you have an oil leak from the drivers side of the engine block, it may be coming from the seal between the engine block, and oil cooler adapter.

The Best Years For Ford's V10 Triton Engine (And Which To Avoid)

The Ford V10 Triton, with its 6.8 liters of displacement, was a powerhouse when it hit the market in 1997. The first iteration was a 6.8L with 275 hp and 425 lb-ft of torque. This made the powerplant a substantial upgrade option for the first Ford F-Series Super Duty truck . But it wasn't just for trucks; it also found its way into RVs and buses.

For many, the V10 Triton is looked back on as a reliable powerplant. But not all of its iterations were created equal. Some had defects that made them prone to complications. However, Ford altered the engine during its lifetime to correct some of these issues.

There are still V10 Tritons on the road today, despite it not being one of Ford's most powerful engines . You may even be in the market for one yourself. This article examines the life of the V10 Triton to determine which iterations were the most reliable and which ones have issues to look out for to aid you if you are in the market for a V10 Triton today.

The years Ford got it right

It's impossible to point to one or multiple years and proclaim them the best years of the V10 Triton. That's because not every engine is entirely identical. Many factors can also impact an engine's reliability after it comes off the lot. Proper maintenance, care, and using quality fluids can increase the lifespan of a V10 Triton. Reports of these engines running for hundreds of thousands of miles under the right conditions exist.

Many consumers point to any V10 Triton produced from 2005 onward as the most reliable model year for the powerplant. In 2005, The V10 Triton adopted a three-valve setup to replace the two-valve configuration, which resulted in 362 horsepower and 460 lb-ft of torque. With advancements in fuel efficiency and performance, the powerplant continued to evolve in the years after.

But it wasn't all just upgrades that came with later iterations of the V10 Triton. Ford attempted to fix defects that previously caused owners frustration-induced headaches. Keep in mind that this list outlines common customer complaints about the powerplant. This does not mean all the engines produced during a respective period are good or bad. It just indicates that some may be susceptible to issues that others are not.

Spark plug woes

In the early years of the V10 Triton, there were spark plug issues. Many owners of a 1997-2002 model V10 Triton encountered a situation where they would randomly hear a loud popping or clicking sound followed by a sudden loss of power. What was happening was that the spark plugs were being abruptly ejected out of the cylinder head. This ejection could cause damage to any engine component that got in his path, potentially racking up a sizable repair bill.

But that's not the only issue with the spark plugs. There were also reports that the spark plugs could get stuck in the cylinder head. Although the spark plug issues were not fun for the unfortunate owner who experienced them, the NHTSA determined in a 2005 report that the defects were not a major safety issue. The agency reported that out of the 474 complaints, only a small fraction noted safety-related complications from the incident. According to reports, Ford fixed the design flaw for post-2002 vehicles.

Other reported issues

The V10 Triton's exhaust manifold has caused some problems for customers—not the manifold itself, but the bolts that keep it secure. There are multiple reports of the manifold bolts on early 2000 model-year engines rusting away. One customer even looked under their vehicle and found over half the bolts missing. This can cause an exhaust leak, which can be dangerous. And repairing the issue is not that easy, with some customers reporting that it costs over $1,000 to get fixed.

Another common issue among owners of an early 2000s V10 Triton is the Positive Crankcase Ventilation (PCV) cracking. Some owners noted that the cracks would result in oil leaks and other complications. One customer reported that their F350 lost 3 quarts of oil over 3,000 miles, potentially due to PCV cracking. A cracked PCV can also cause oil contamination and increased emissions. So, if you are in the market to buy a V10 Triton, check for PCV issues before throwing out an offer.

Heavy Duty Services: Engine Overhaul & Replacement

Authorized Jasper Dealer Give Your Vehicle a New Lease on Life with JASPER. That big oil slick in your driveway or those strange noises from under your hood don't have to mean you'll be saddled with a new car payment soon. Instead, your trusted installer at Dave's Automotive & Gas can drop in a completely remanufactured JASPER gas or diesel engine, transmission or differential and get you back on the road again quickly! Call Dave's Automotive & Gas at 727-527-8148 to schedule an appointment. Proudly remanufactured in the U.S.A.

Cylinder Block A cylinder block is the powerhouse for the motor vehicle. The solid cast car part houses the cylinders and their components (gaskets, valves, and seals) inside a lubricated and cooled crankcase. Since it is one of the most important parts of your car, the block is designed to be extremely strong and sturdy. Although strong and sturdy, the block is susceptible to failure resulting in a vehicle that won't start. Cracked blocks, porous blocks, core plug, or freeze plug failure are some of the problems facing cylinder blocks. Call 727-527-8148 to talk to the mechanics of Dave's Automotive & Gas about your cylinder block problems.

Cylinder Head A cylinder head is the closed end of a cylinder (located in a car's engine block). It sits above the cylinder block, closing the top of the cylinder and forming the combustion chamber. The cylinder head coordinates airflow in and out of the engine. Since the cylinder head's chief function is to seal the cylinders properly, insufficient compression results in the car being difficult to drive. To have your cylinder head checked and repaired, talk to Dave's Automotive & Gas's cylinder head repair and reconditioning specialists today.

Engine Maintenance Any car part manufacturer will tell you that preventive maintenance is critical to the part's lifespan. Like other auto parts, car engines aren't built to last forever. However, you can increase the engine's lifespan by performing regular preventive maintenance. The easiest way to maintain peak performance and fuel economy is to provide regular engine maintenance for your vehicle. To have your engine maintained by experts, visit Dave's Automotive & Gas.

Engine Repair When your vehicle shows any sign of trouble, bring it to Dave's Automotive & Gas for full-service engine repair in St. Petersburg, FL. From diagnostic check engine light repair to precision engine part repair, our expert auto mechanics are ready to help you.

Engine Repair and Rebuild After years of use, your car's engine inevitably deteriorates. If your car needs a new engine and you are not ready to invest in a new car, consider having the engine rebuilt. This involves replacing or resurfacing all the rundown parts in an engine. Regardless of your engine replacement needs, Dave's Automotive & Gas has experienced engine rebuilders ready to assist you.

Engine Replacement The engine converts energy into useful mechanical motion. This amazing machine is what keeps your vehicle moving. Although generally reliable, a car engine is susceptible to damage and breakdown. When this happens, do not sit and stress over it. Take action. Take the vehicle to a mechanic for an engine replacement. Bring it to Dave's Automotive & Gas. Visit us at 7424 4th Street N for quality engine replacement services.

Timing Belt A timing belt is a part of your car's internal combustion engine. The belt synchronizes the camshaft and the crankshaft rotation so that the engine valves open and close at the correct timings. Also, the belt prevents the piston from striking the valves in an interference engine. A timing belt is a rubber belt that usually features teeth on the inside surface, while a timing chain is a metal roller chain. Most cars we drive now have timing belts instead of timing chains and gears. Although different manufacturers have their recommended mileage, you need to have your car's timing belt checked regularly. To have it checked by experts, contact Dave's Automotive & Gas today.

Transmission Flush Although most manufacturers recommend a transmission flush every 30,000 miles or every two years, some symptoms may indicate that you need a transmission flush sooner. Some of the symptoms that indicate that your car needs a transmission flush sooner are: transmission grinding or strange noises, problems shifting gears, slipping gears, surging of the car, and delay in vehicle movement. Flushing the used fluid from the transmission washes away tiny particles of dirt, clutch material, and metal shavings. For all your transmission flush needs, call 727-527-8148 or visit Dave's Automotive & Gas today - we are transmission experts.

Transmission Maintenance Any car part manufacturer will tell you that preventive maintenance is critical to the part's lifespan. Like other auto parts, car transmissions aren't built to last forever. However, you can increase the transmission's lifespan by performing regular preventive maintenance. The easiest way to maintain peak performance and fuel economy is to provide regular transmission maintenance for your vehicle.
