Engine Duratec-HE LCBD commonly faces issues like intake manifold gasket leaks, causing rough idling and vacuum loss. Diagnose by checking for hissing sounds or using a smoke test. Prevention includes regular inspection and timely gasket replacement. Another problem is ignition coil failure, leading to misfires; test coils with a multimeter and replace faulty units.
