Bear in mind that the SOHC-V6 has THREE tensions. The (internal) timing chain tensioner does not normally got bad and cannot be accessed externally. The cam-chain tensioner replaced was for the driver's side bank ONLY. The passenger-side bank is more difficult to access because it is in the REAR of the engine...but it is doable. If ya have to replace one...just do them both for piece of mind. It's s leisurely day's work for both. Ignoring the rattle WILL destroy your chain-guides. Destroyed chain guides is by far the most common problem to an otherwise reliable engine.

I used a cheap $10 tensioner and it has LESS tension than my 17 year old oem. Order the oem parts he linked and do it right the first time. Im just happy my cassette is in one piece so I don't have to take the cover off again (replaced main tensioner last weekend). Regardless of tensioner used, soak and squeeze in oil. It works a ton better that way. Side note: mine only has 85k miles.

Wow, just want to clear things up a bit. There are several people saying the driver's side is easier to change. Do not listen to them as they have no clue what they are talking about. The passenger side tensioner is only a ten minute job and only requires one wrench. Also, if you are already getting the noise (plastic timing chain guides) it's too late. Starting in 1997 poor quality tensioners were installed from the factory. By 1999, they started to fail and Ford said the failures were due to poor maint. In 2001 Ford finally investigated and found the springs in the tensioners were failing. Some time in 2002 they started using the improved tensioners. Even if you Ranger/Explorer is a post 2002 year, it's wise to replace your tensioners now before the timing chain guide rattle begins. It's also very important to use only genuine Motorcraft tensioners. If the temsioners fail, you will be having the engine pulled to replace the timing chain cassettes. I hope this helps clear up the misinformation in the comments section.

Depends. My '03 Explorer doesn't have all that intake crap etc above the tensioner which is next to the thermostat housing. All you have to do is remove the sensor to allow the socket space to fit in. Super easy. Unlike the one down the side.
@BWater-yq3jx
@BWater-yq3jx 4 ай бұрын
I've also found that the springs are not the main issue. I pulled the old ones and they had at least as much spring strength as the Genuine OEM replacements. However, I think as the chain gets worn and stretched, the tensioner needs to be fully extended to keep it tight, and that initial 1/2" or so when you squeeze the tensioner is not as strong as the rest of the travel. So at that point it's up to the oil to do the job, but what happens after awhile is they don't hold oil for very long, like only hours instead of days. New tensioner does fix that.

The reason Hans Gruper's comments (below) attempting to help failed miserably and should be ignored is because he doesn't understand that the tight side of the chains will not let valve springs rotate the cams backwards, which is why crankshaft position does not matter when replacing tensioners. He is correct that the SOHC version of the 4.0 is an interference engine unlike the OHV version which is not and extremely important to understand when working on SOHC timing. I would never hand prime these tensioners, because it only makes them too long which is harmful with zero benefit because they self prime to correct length via oil pressure within seconds and the internal springs won't allow chains to jump. I think it's a very good idea to replace the hydraulic tensioners at about 70,000 miles to try to prevent the serious damage of plastic parts breaking which is often caused by malfunctioning tensioners that cause the chains to slap against plastic parts that have become brittle. Malfunctioning tensioners leak down when parked and cause startup rattle until pressure builds which is often a temporary chance to replace them before they destroy the plastic components.

I just replaced both of these in my 2002 XLS Explorer . Turned out that the tiny hole on the tensioner tip was clogged . That explains the intermittent tapping . Replaced them with the NAPA o.e.m. parts . I've had several customers try to clean the old ones to save money . Don't do it !! Two came back with broken chain guides , which pretty much means replace engine on these models .

@hansgruper872 6 жыл бұрын
You got lucky. Anyone attempting this job please be aware - set the engine to TDC before pulling the tensioner. Depending on the position of the cam the valve springs will cause the cam to jump then you are out of time. You'll blow the engine if you don't realize this. Same goes for the rear. For anyone rebuilding - you need the special cam tools. Only buy Ford OEM components as the others are of bad quality. The engine needs to be pulled or the trans dropped to access the rear cam guide bolt.

@munnday86 6 жыл бұрын
Hans Gruper why would the engine need to be a TDC...
@hansgruper872
@hansgruper872 6 жыл бұрын
munnday86 Because at TDC all the valves are closed on the drivers side head. This engine uses roller cams with VERY strong valve springs. The valve springs produce more tension than the hydraulic chain tensioner. If you remove the chain tensioner with the cam sitting at the wrong spot, the valve springs may snap backwards into a closed position thus putting you out of time and bending your valves (interference engine).

Hey, mine Ford 4.0 was sitting on the lift for 5 months, Ive started it few times for few minutes or seconds, when I was changing oil, transmission oil and spark plugs. The oil in car was quite pld, because the previous owner (1st owner) park the vehicle for nearly 8 months and just reparked it sometimes and using it anymore. When ive bought my car I drove with it few time, I made about 100 kms in it before put it on the lift to do service. It was not rattling, after 5 konths, Ive finished the service and start the vehicle, go out and wash it, after then its started to making this noise, firstly it was not so loud and was doing it for about few minutes, I go for the first ride and after 4 kms when engine was warm, it has started to rattle again louder. Ive stopped it, left it for a day and then started it again and the rattling was there but much much quiter qnd went away for about a minute again. Could be the tensioners gone, Due to I have changed the fresh new oil (orig. FORD 5W30), so they do not have enough pressure because of thr new thin oil? (I dont know, which oil were previous owner using).

Do you have to prime the new tensioner before installing? Or can I go ahead without priming seeing that it would be easier this way. It would be easier to install without priming and less risk of cross threading due to less tension when making contact on the guides. What do you think?

2001 4.0 on my explorer sport. During a cold start the chains make noise for 1 or 2 seconds max and then are completely quiet after that both when idling and driving at any RPM. Even if the engine is turned off after completely warming up and then turned back on 1 or 2 hours later the chains won’t rattle when started back up… I replaced both tensioners using OEM ford parts and this made no difference in getting rid of the 2 seconds of cold startup rattle that was present before replacing both tensioners and the reason I replaced them in the first place. When I removed the old tensioners they both seemed to still have good resistance when trying to compress them compared to the new ones which indicates the old ones were “probably” still ok. Again, after those brief 2 seconds of rattle when started up when the engines is completely cold (ie been sitting for more than a few hours) it’s quiet and it never rattles or makes noise any other time. One other thing to note is that if I do the flooded crank start method before starting it when cold, it will NOT make the 1 or 2 second rattle. (I will hold the gas pedal to the floor and turn and hold the key to crank the engine but not turn it over until after about 10 seconds and when I see the oil pressure gauge move to the middle, I let go of the gas pedal and start it) If I cold start it using this method it will NOT make the 1 or 2 seconds of startup rattle. Is this my guides that are broken or is this normal to have a second or two of rattle when the engine is completely cold to build oil pressure and have it get to the tensioners so they tighten up to hold the chain? I’ve had this vehicle for a little over a month now and the symptom has stayed exactly same even after replacing the tensioners and changing the oil using high mileage oil and Motorcraft filter. I just want to know if this is normal or if it’s not and I should get rid of the vehicle if a larger problem is imminent.

Watched all these videos on the Ford 4.0 timing chain tensioner, no one has mentioned that early 2001 sport trac and older 4.0 models, this technique does not work, on those models you have to pull the intake manifold, the intake on these models are different than every video I have seen online...

munnday86 I'm pretty sure the tensioner was where the noise was coming from. But idk if the chain broke or jumped time, I had it towed home. the guy mechanic my buddy knows said just to junk it but before this timing chain issue the truck ran really good

@@munnday86 To me, it sounded just as loud... I have heard other videos before and after, and they were whisper quiet. Maybe there is some echo going on with the garage. I have to do this to mine now, except, I have to dig in there and do the Cassette as well. Maybe I am just not realizing that all I have to do is replace the Hydraulic Tensioner Bolt, and be done with it. I will try that first. Thanks for replying.
