    Belt in oil sump. I can see it now. You oil pump belt needs replacing that'll be $6500 in labor and $12.99 in parts

    All the talk about power and efficiency yet gave no numbers...

    Efficiency, performance, refinement.... Didn’t mention longevity hey boys 👍

    Engineer; Belt drive oil pump Me; your fired
  • @JontyCtheKing
    I definitely can't see any potential problems if that belt driving the oil pump fails. And I'm sure that when it comes to replacing that belt-in-oil which lives deep inside the engine the garage will complete the job in 20 mins.
  • @roconnor01
    How much plastic is in that engine which will harden and crack due to heat?
  • @rickhibdon11
    Oil bath timing belt? Truly a "throw away" engine.
  • @dpbj1957
    When it comes time to change the oil pump belt, I foresee a lot of used vans coming onto the second hand market.

    Honda: I bet you can’t build a clean Diesel engine just like the new Crv Ford: Hold my oil

    Generally speaking when somebody refers to something as "Game Changing" it rarely is.
  • why don't you just say. " the all new ford disposable diesel engine "
  • @shaneleigh1751
    Mine has had 2 engines in 3 years. 77000 miles & an engine change required, it's a game changer alright.
  • As an engineer myself, all I can say is : “really, belt drive!” Could you go any cheaper and just use string maybe.
  • @scottc4433
    Belt driven oil pump wow real smart ,another winner from ford
  • @Bereft777
    Rubber belts for guaranteed maintenance intervals! Thanks Ford for ensuring we have to chance bending valves when these snap, eventually.
  • After watching this I’m gonna keep on driving my 1995 OBS 7.3 Powerstroke Diesel. No DEF, NO Belt drive oil pump, no over head cam, and no belt drive timing belt. Only a mechanical oil pump, pushrod heads and Hewie electric/mechanically driven injectors. Just what I like, tough and reliable with proper maintenance.

    I was excited for a little bit, but the longer I watched, the less excited I got. And why the heck would they go to not only a timing belt, but also a belt driven oil pump - both of which look brutally difficult to get to?!?!?! I don't think I'd never own one of those. Sure it's cool for the first 70,000 miles, but after that, it looks like it'll basically be disposable.
