I have a 2011 F-150 ecoboost which started to shudder and not allow acceleration above 70mph and 3000 rpm. This then threw codes for injector p0302. After a couple visits they finally found water in the intercooler and other areas. The dealership "fixed" the issue and added this funky guard (see pic) on my intercooler which i know cuts down on performance. Just not sure how this can be an allowable fix. Anyone else see this fix before
?
Plate put on intercooler
They are doing this to try and raise the temperature in the CAC system to "burn off" the moisture. They don't have an acceptable fix right now other than to try and Band-Aid it. See my previous post for a great fix that will keep carbon deposits off your valves and the moisture out of the system. This engine is phenomenal and has the potential to last 400k miles, just needs to modification to do it. The damn EPA and CAFE standards are what's killing these things.
