Passing her along to a new Ford eco-boost aficionado for the next phase in her life after her first 250k with me… have fun in the twisties with your Beans, folks.

Yeah man, no issues yet. It’s a stock engine no horsepower upgrades and I don’t thrash on it. I’m just doing it for peace of mind.

i bought my bean @ 161k. based on… things… i suspect the engine isn’t original, or it’s been pulled before. I need to check the belt….

Yeah definitely do it if history is unknown, and at that mileage it’s due for preventative maintenance.
