• 6-speed automatic transmission with
tow/haul mode, SelectShift capability and Progressive
Range Select is standard with this
engine
Key Features and
Benefits:
• Twin independent variable camshaft
timing (Ti-VCT) on both the intake and exhaust cams is
continuously adjusted to keep the engine running at
maximum efficiency as the engine speed and torque
change, helping enhance fuel economy and
performance
• Strong, yet lightweight die-cast aluminium
block
• Dual overhead camshafts (DOHC), lightweight
aluminium cylinder heads with 4 valves per cylinder
• Aluminium engine block and cylinder heads help
to reduce weight to aid fuel efficiency
• Forged-steel, fully counterweighted crankshaft
for strength and durability
• Smart charging alternator.
• Aggressive deceleration fuel shutoff (ADFSO).
• Electronic throttle control (ETC)
helps deliver seamless and consistent engine
response
• Intelligent Oil-Life Monitor uses actual engine
and vehicle operating conditions to calculate oil
change service intervals of up to 1 year or 10,000
miles/16,000 km's
Truck-specific
Features:
• New mid-lock variable cam timing
enhances fuel economy while maintaining tow-friendly
torque
• Cast-iron exhaust manifolds for heavy-duty
operation and durability
• 10.5:1 compression ratio for improved
low-speed torque and towing capability
• Fail-Safe Engine Cooling
System.
What It
Is:
• A feature designed to help
protect the engine from potential damage due to loss of coolant
How It
Works:
• If the engine overheats, the
engine will switch from normal all-cylinder operation to alternating cylinder
operation
• The non-powered cylinders act as air pumps to
help cool the powered cylinders
• The vehicle will continue to operate, but with
limited engine power
• Driving distance is limited by a number
of factors including vehicle load, outside temperature and road
conditions
Key
Benefit:
• Allows the driver to travel a
short distance to obtain service or reach a service facility
Aggressive Deceleration Fuel Shutoff
(ADFSO)
What It Is:
• A feature which temporarily
interrupts fuel delivery and consumption when the
vehicle normally slows down while maintaining
normal engine operation
How It
Works:
• Uses the transmission to keep the
engine running at low, more fuel-efficient
operating level whenever
possible
• Normal fuel delivery resumes when the
vehicle reaches a low speed or when the driver
accelerates
Key
Benefits:
• Excellent driveability is
maintained by Ford proprietary software that integrates
this technology with powertrain
operation
• Is automatic and requires no interaction
from the driver
• Helps maximize fuel economy (for Fuel Economy
figures, see the 'F150 Fuel Economy' section of this website).
