A engine is just broke in at a hundred thousand miles these days. My f150 current engine is at over 150 thousand, burns no oil and runs 45 lbs of oil pressure. The Kia is at 120 thousand runs the same way just turned 10 years old and and not a squeak out of it.
If you want 200,000 miles out of a NA engine it is easy to do.
The 200,000 mile mark is the new bar that has been set.
Yes injector and carburetors can cause problems before then but there is a lot of additional things on the turbo engine. All those additional things are what bother me.
My two barrel carb on the f150 has a accelerator pump that has been changed but it has never been opened.
I do love simplicity. I don't even have electric windows on either car. I don't know if you can even buy them that way any more.
I'll say it in a better way.
The 3.5 intercooler had problems on a lot of trucks in areas where there was a lot precipitation.
Sometimes I wonder what My f150 would look like with 45 grand invested in it. I already know it is reliable. Haha
