06 siezed motor?
Bought an 06 at an auction for 3 grand, V6-18000 miles-xlt w/opions. Threw a battery in it and starter started smoking. Took drivebelt off, starter off, put trans in nuetral and I cant turn the crank. Is there anything else that I can check before I go out and get an engine? Also is there any warranties that can help me here? Thanks

Re: 06 siezed motor?
The powertrain warranty for an 06 Escape is 36,000 miles and 3 years. Check the date of manufacture. You may still be able to get it fixed under warranty if it isn't over 3 years old. Most likely the motor is siezed up. Little you can do other than replace it.

Re: 06 siezed motor?
Sounds like a derailed timing chain locked-up ,see
http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=968506 Remove both valve covers, and start with a visual inspection. Is this a keeper, or a flip? Last edited by danielsatur; 11-15-2009 at 04:53 PM.
