2021 Ford F-150 Engine Q&A

  • Why does my F-150’s check engine light come on when I start it? It's okay if your check engine light comes on when you first start your vehicle. This is a sign that your vehicle is testing its circuits. The dash light shouldn't stay on. If it does, you might want to bring your vehicle in for service.
  • Why does my Ford engine sound different? Unusual noises can signal a problem with your Ford F-150 engine. Tapping or knocking could mean you're low on oil. A high-pitched whistle could signal an intake leak or misaligned belt. Squealing can be traced back to a loose fan belt, and grinding might be coming from the brakes, not the engine.
  • What could damage a Ford engine? [ordered-list-1-item-3-1]Are you unknowingly damaging your Ford F-150 engine? Certain driving habits can hurt your engine. These habits include driving on an empty fuel tank, revving your engine while the vehicle is in Park, or slamming the gas pedal while the engine is still cold. Steer clear of these habits to help protect engine performance and efficiency.
  • Can I use water in my Ford F-150 radiator? While it’s not recommended, you can use water in your F-150 radiator in emergencies. Normally, you should only use a 50/50 mix of coolant and water or a pre-mixed coolant. However, if you are completely out of coolant and must continue driving, it’s better to have water in your coolant reservoir than nothing.
  • What could cause my F-150 engine to suddenly stop? If your F-150 car engine suddenly stops, it could be due to overheating, low fuel, a faulty ignition system, sensor problems, electrical system trouble, or mechanical issues.
