Built at Ford's Dagenham engine plant in Essex, the 3.6-litre V8 twin-turbo diesel engine began production in April 2006. The 4.4 L variant is built in Ford's Chihuahua Engine plant in Mexico. Much speculation in the United States has focused on this engine as a possible Diesel entrant in the F-150 pickup truck and Expedition SUV. [2]
Diesel engine runaway: Diesel engine power is governed by the amount of fuel supplied. Excessive pressure in the crankcase can force mist of engine oil into the intake manifold, which can be burned in the same fashion as Diesel fuel, thus causing runaway. One-pedal driving mode and lack of brake application in deceleration and reverse actions. [16]
Diesel engine runaway is an occurrence in diesel engines, in which the engine draws extra fuel from an unintended source and overspeeds at higher and higher RPM, producing up to ten times the engine's rated output until destroyed by mechanical failure or bearing seizure due to a lack of lubrication.

EcoBlue is the marketing name for a range of diesel engines from Ford of Europe.The EcoBlue engines were developed under the codename "Panther" by Ford engineering teams in the U.K. and Germany, and are expected to succeed the Duratorq diesel engines, offering optimised fuel efficiency and reduced CO 2 and NO x emissions.
The engine is a modified version of the Ford Duratorq 3.2L diesel engine that has been adapted to meet emissions in the United States. To aid in economy, emissions, and reduce NVH, it has a high-pressure common-rail fuel injection system and piezo injectors that can spray up to five different injections per compression event. It has a water ...
The Dover 5.9 is referred to as a 6.0 sometimes, even by Ford themselves who referred to the turbocharged 5.9 as the 360TC, compared to the naturally aspirated "359" - while they do share dimensions, the Dover 360TC was built to closer clearances, which may have led to minute differences in displacement.
