Disadvantages of the Ford NGA engine
A clogged fuel tank filter is typically the cause of intermittent power outages; if the issue is ignored for an extended period of time, an expensive fuel pump will need to be replaced;
Grease seeps through the pressure sensor and front or rear crankshaft oil seals; high-voltage wires, particularly the longest one from the fourth cylinder, rot; hydraulic lifters are terrified of low-quality oil and can knock on 80,000 kilometers.
