Does the 3.3L engine has cam phasers? Or just regular cam sprockets?

 

It has cam phasers,

 

Thanks!!

 

Good luck finding engines without them, everything is getting phasers. Won't be long before you find them in lawnmowers.

 

Some Tecumseh engines (usually on higher hp snowblowers) had a centrifugally operated, camshaft-mounted mechanical compression release. They coulda called it a Starting Phaser

 

FYI, that was tongue-in-cheek, lawn mowers don't need phasers as the engines are used in a very limited rpm range, but automotive mfg's are going after every advantage they can affordably use to improve mileage and emissions, and a lot of the known tech is becoming affordable.

 

FYI, are you always such a dick?

 

Why doesn't Ford offer the N/A 3.3 in the Ranger? On paper it sounds like the perfect combo.

 

Right now? Because they brought over the international Ranger. I believe all it is designed for is inline engines.

In the future? IMHO, if you want an F150 engine, get an F150. No need to blur the lines between what should be two distinct (as much as a can and bed on wheels can be) truck lines.

 

Nope, there are enough willing to fill that role for me.
