Picked up a seized Ford Mustang engine project a year or so ago, in this video we carry out an engine teardown on the Ford Mustang engine and look into why this 170 six cylinder engine has seized. The seized 170 six cylinder engine was pulled from a Ford Mustang which came into the UK many years ago. The owner of the Mustang told me it was working fine in the US, once it arrived in the UK he pulled it and fitted a V8. Claimed over the years while stored in his barn it had seized.

This was sold a 200 FORD Mustang engine, that's what he was told when he purchased the Mustang. After a little research, its a 1961 170 engine which left the factory in a FORD Falcon. It is still a 1960's FORD engine, and a pleasure to work on.

Starting this project, anticipated seized piston rings, rod bearing issues and possible stuck lifters, could it be something else?
