2016 ford expedition 3.5 ecoboost have done 2 water pumps on it i did one previous owner did the other but other than that Great truck!! 190k miles and still running strong might throw another motor in it trans is smooth as butter and Frame and other suspension components are mint
Isn’t the water pump only mounted inside the timing cover on front wheel drive models? On rear wheel drive the water pump is still outside as normal?
In this case ford engineers are not dumb. That is a space problem. You cannot have an outside water pump with a transverse engine. Same with rhe dodge durango 4×2. Plus the problem with the water pump is the orange and green coolant. In time it deteriorates the seal. Ford upgraded the coolant to the yellow coolant
You pulled the intake,vc,timing covers ,fenderwell,coolant accessories in one hour? You must turn 780 hours a week.or you should love these.you could do 5 a day easy.
Do you have to drop the engine out the bottom on a 2012 for fusion 3.5l or can you do it with the engine in place?
2500$ job at the ford dealership and that was a few years ago, no telling the cost today
Dude lied when he said only an hour tear down. Thats at-least 3-5 hours.

All in the name of squeezing more money out of the customer.
Just did one last week. The pulley moved up and down. Plus there was 2 qt. Of water in the oil.
Lol it's a 2.7 and 3.5 bro lol… and your the mechanic bahaha!!
2012 Explorer 325k doing the water pump for the first time
Don't lose your 8mm socket
I traded in my 3.5 Taurus before it went bad I could smell the coolant for about 2 years
It's the same POS engine design like the Chrysler 2.7
Besides water pumps those are great engines. One of the best ford has put out
I'm in the middle of that same job right now at work. 2011 ford flex 3.5. Such a dumb design
Do u have to replace the Cam Phaser chains
