Ask Buckshot...what he found in a 3.0 cylinder head
oil gallery some months ago when he removed the
'plug'....SAND!.Ask 'mikey' what I warned him about
during his 3.0 swap that was called off...SAND!...Who
has fitted a suspect Escape engine and not checked the
bottom end,or removed the plugs from the head oil
galleries?...Who has had failures with Escape engines
bought 'cheap'....not so damm cheap now are they!!!And
FWIW even the Ford fix of 'trying' to shotblast the
sand out of the main oil galleries DOES NOT remove all
the Zircon sand(per data from report)...still a risk
of it 'shifting' during service and damage to bearings
etc.....but who cares...cheap is good right!!!!
