Know This Engine Before You Buy
The research behind our purchase interview — recalls, bulletins and real install economics for this engine family:
A quick look at your own vehicle makes sure the right engine shows up:
- Verify that the 8th digit of your VIN is 'N'.
- Confirm your engine is a 3-cylinder variant.
- Identify if your vehicle is FWD or AWD to prepare for potential oil pan or PTU bracket transfers.
What the install really takes — plan and budget with confidence:
Special tools this job needs:
- Ford EcoBoost 1.5L 3-Cylinder Timing Tool Kit (including crankshaft TDC timing peg 303-507 and crankshaft position sensor alignment tool 303-1521)
- Vacuum Coolant Refilling Tool
- Engine Hoist / Crane
- Engine Stand
- Torque Wrench
- Scan Tool with programming/relearn capabilities
Budget for these consumables at install:
- Engine Oil (approx. 5.9 quarts meeting Ford specification WSS-M2C960-A1, WSS-M2C947-B1, or WSS-M2C963-A1)
- New OEM Motorcraft Oil Filter
- Ford Yellow Pre-Mixed Coolant meeting specification WSS-M2C965-A1 (VC-13-G)
- New Motorcraft Iridium Spark Plugs
- New Intake and Exhaust Manifold Gaskets
- New Thermostat Gasket
- New Fuel Injector O-rings
- New Rear Main Seal (highly recommended)
- New Torque-to-Yield (stretch) Crankshaft Pulley Bolt
- New Timing Belt & Tensioner (highly recommended during swap)
What your vehicle’s computers will need after the swap:
What’s involved: Crankshaft Position (CKP) Sensor Relearn / Misfire Monitor Profile Correction & PCM Parameter Reset / PATS Relearn
Requires a Ford-compatible diagnostic scan tool (such as Ford IDS, FDRS, or FORScan) to perform the Misfire Profile Correction and Programmable Module Installation (PMI) / parameter reset to sync the replacement engine's sensors with the vehicle's computer and security system.
Pro tips for a smooth first start-up — hand them to whoever does the install:
- AWD vs. FWD Oil Pan Transfer: If swapping between AWD and FWD platforms, you must transfer your original engine's oil pan and accessory brackets to accommodate the Power Transfer Unit (PTU).
- Cooling System Vacuum Bleeding: You must use a vacuum-lift coolant tool to refill the system. Gravity-filling will trap air in the cylinder head, causing localized hot spots and immediate head warping.
- Fragile Cylinder Deactivation Solenoid: Located on the top-right side of the engine; easily crushed by hoist chains during installation.
- Torque-to-Yield (TTY) Bolts: Critical fasteners (crankshaft pulley, camshaft phasers) are single-use only and must be replaced to prevent catastrophic timing failure.
Easy to get right once you know them:
- Ordering for the wrong model year (confusing the 2017-2019 4-cylinder with this 3-cylinder engine).
- Ordering for a 2020-2022 Escape (VIN 6) instead of the revised 2023-2025 Escape (VIN N).
- Assuming the turbocharger is included in the assembly.
- Reusing single-use Torque-to-Yield (TTY) bolts.
- Skipping the mandatory scan-tool crankshaft relearn and PCM parameter reset, resulting in a no-start condition or false misfire codes.
- Using incorrect or generic engine oil/coolant, which degrades the wet timing belt.
Not issues with the units on this page — the manufacturer documented these for every engine of this family, wherever you buy one. Handy for your installer:
🔎 Recommended at install: NHTSA Recall 24S16 / 22S73 / 23V-867. Dealerships install a dedicated drain tube and update PCM software to detect pressure drops.
🔎 Recommended at install: Strictly adhere to oil change intervals and use only Ford-specified oil. Degraded belt material clogs the oil pickup screen, causing oil starvation.
🔎 Recommended at install: TSB 25-2581, 25-2063. Flush cooling system and replace the water pump.
🔎 Recommended at install: Recall campaign to address potential cracks that lead to oil leaks.
Researched from factory recalls, TSBs and OEM service data (reference unit 300-10860-5248107). Unit-specific details — mileage, condition, warranty, freight — are covered in the checkout interview.
Policies, in plain English.
Shipping & Handling
- Ships by LTL freight on a pallet — a real freight truck, not a parcel van
- Your checkout freight quote covers delivery to your door (liftgate service included for residential addresses)
- The carrier calls ahead to schedule a delivery window — someone must be present to receive it
- Typically palletized and picked up within 2–3 business days; transit time depends on distance
120-Day Warranty
This part includes a 120-day warranty.
- If the part fails within the warranty window, we'll replace it or refund per the coverage terms
- Coverage is parts-only — installation labor is not included
- Warranty covers defects — not installation errors, misuse, or damage after installation
Your pre-purchase interview reviews these exact terms with you before anything is charged.
Returns (30 Days)
We accept returns of uninstalled parts within 30 days of delivery for this part.
- Defective parts: We will replace the part or issue a refund at our discretion
- Programming: "Needs to be programmed to my vehicle" is not a valid return reason. Many modules require dealer programming — we're happy to help connect you with resources if your dealer says it's not programmable
- Return shipping: This part ships by freight (LTL) — the part price is refundable per the terms above, but shipping costs are non-refundable and return freight follows the seller's return terms. Your pre-purchase interview walks through the exact numbers before you buy
- Parts must be returned in original packaging and unmodified condition
- Poorly packaged returns that arrive damaged will not be credited
Damaged in Shipping?
Freight damage is rare — and you're fully protected when you do two things at delivery:
- Inspect before you sign — you're allowed time to look the pallet over while the driver waits
- Write any damage on the delivery receipt before signing — that one line is what makes a freight claim succeed
- Severe damage? Refuse the delivery — it goes back at no cost to you and we make it right
- Photograph the pallet before unwrapping; report concealed damage within 24 hours of delivery
We handle the carrier claim — you just help document it. Your pre-purchase interview walks through this checklist too.
Order Cancellation
Cancel before shipment for a full refund. Once the pallet has been built, a preparation charge may apply — and once the freight carrier picks it up, shipping costs are non-refundable and standard return terms apply. Your pre-purchase interview shows the exact numbers before you pay.
