Any known, wide spread problems with this engine? I’ve heard and read about the gas in oil, but not sure if it’s a small number of problems. And what causes it?
Is the 2.3 in the Ranger the same exact engine that’s in the Explorer and mustang?
Im just curious about the strength and durability of the block and if it’s capable of handling a life of towing in the Rangers?
I’m trying to find out as much information on the 2.3. From what I’ve read it’s a semi open block, and it’s basically the same as the 2.0 ecoboost, but the 2.0 ecoboost is closed block and is said to be more robust?
Also, why hasn’t Ford gone with dual injection with this engine, like every engine in the F150?
Any information is appreciated.
