Excellent Tutorial, best I've seen yet. You're like an instructor/teacher, only More patient, lol ! I Hope to tackle an 05 Taurus, however, I still don't see where the alignment tool helps So much .I realize it holds the tab in place, still, the engine has to be @ TDC, correct ??? Marking the original location seems easier, and I'm really lazy ! Taurus' can Wear U Out ! Thanks Again !!!

Too long, don't need to hear non-important information and watch all the details. Example - you tighten up all four torx screws one by one by hand and then do each one individually again twice with a ratchet. Learn to edit this 13 minute video could have been done in a fraction of that time. You do speak clearly and have good video.

If the easy way fails the long portion of the sensor should point at 38 degrees off of center line when at top dead center.

The sensor positioning isnt critical for the timing, only helpful for the stress on the wiring harness, right?

This is a defective Ford design. There is no way that a properly designed bearing should start making noise before 150k miles. The bearing is not really under any load so it should not fail as often as it does.
@tomsgarage20015 жыл бұрын
PickleRix There are no bearings in the synchronizer. It has two sets of bronze bushings. The only torsional load comes from the oil pump which is attached to the bottom of the synchronizer by a shaft. But I do agree I should still get more than 60,000 miles out of the synchronizer. That is when mine started making noise. About 60,000 miles.

Folks...when doing this repair. Turn engine over to TDC on #1 cylinder. It will save you time, and you will actually be doing the repair correctly..not guessing. You don't need two alignment marks, only shade tree wannabes do that.

Would this synchronizer make a rattling sound at exceloration as well or only a chirping noise? Because I've had chirping /squeaking sounds come out of my 3.0 v6 Ranger only to find out it was the belt tensioner and pulley but now I'm getting a rattling/crackling sound when the engine gets to normal operating temperature.

@@tomsgarage2001 why is it important that the outer housing be in the exact same position as when you took it out. I get that the inner tab should be in its exact spot it was in relation to the magnetic sensor because of timing but I dont see how the position of the outer housing is critical for the timing. I’m new to car stuff but from watch videos, doesn’t seem as critical as the inner tab alignment if you’re not doing this with TDC

So my 07 has a small chirp on start-up, then whines when I accelerate. The lower the gear, the louder it is. By the time I reach 5th gear at highway speeds, the sound is gone. If I have the truck in neutral, or if I put it in gear but keep the clutch pressed in and rev the engine, there is no noise. I don't have a CEL and I have no other issues with driving or shifting. I'm 99% sure the sound is coming from the transmission. Should I replace my synchro or do I have another issue?
@tomsgarage20017 жыл бұрын
Is your engine a 3.0 V6? You can check the synchronizer for noise. It is located at the back of the intake just to the right of center. You should be able to just start the vehicle and set at idle. Put a long extension on top of the synchronizer and to your ear. Listen for the chirping noise. Sometimes you can even feel it. If you do not hear the noise I would lean towards the transmission. Good luck. Hope I was of help!
