What does 4.0L Flex Fuel V6 SOHC 12V from ford mean?

Answer 1

Flex fuel means it can run off regular unleaded gasoline with up to an 85% alcohol content.

Answer 2

The engine has 4.0 Liters of displacement. There are 6 cylinders in a V shape (3 sets of 2 oposing cylinders). The engine has 12 Valves, 2 per cyliner; one intake and one exhaust. Flex Fuel means it can run on either gasoline or or Ethanol or a combination of the two. Ethanol is a cleaner burning fuel and does not affect power. It is even better for your engine because it helps to clean out and nasty deposits the gasoline leaves inside the engine.
