Hi Brian, I cannot thank you enough for this 4-part series, the oil pump and spark plug videos. I just completed this job yesterday on my 2010 Navigator with 123k miles on it. It took me almost 30 hours to complete everything, along with referencing your videos along the way to triple check my work. Tip for others re: the crank seal replacement... I bought a 2" PVC pipe coupler for $1.25 and it was an almost perfect fit for tapping the seal back into the timing cover. I also used a piece of 16 gauge electrical wiring for installing the 2 oil pump flange bolts by wrapping the wire around the bolt between the head of the bolt and the washer. It really helped a lot guiding the bolts into the holes and holding them in place while I got the bolt started for a few threads. It helps to have long skinny fingers! The oil pump bolts and power steering bolts were the most difficult part of this job. I had to walk away a few times to rest with a cold beverage. Thank you again for providing this community with so many helpful videos and sharing your knowledge!!!

@@invisionz-_-699 Late, but you can hold it in place with the tow strap method. KZbin has videos on it. You can also use the bolts for the puller to weave a breaker bar between them and wedge it against the frame to prevent spinning. If those bolts are too short while actually using the puller, pick a few bolts and nuts up at the hardware store to stick out the other direction. And don't do what I did and mistake the large flange on the pulley bolt you removed is the washer! Make certain the washer also came out before using the puller!

@SepticFuddy @SepticFuddy thanks man, we have since done the whole project and the truck runs pretty well atm. Though after doing an entire timing job, there seems to still be a misfire somewhere but nothing we have scanned with actually picks it up and we have replaced the spark plugs already however they are kinda cheap. We also have Ford phasers in the timing system but we have Amazon guides and timing chain, not sure how durable either will be. Any info on these would be greatly appreciated!

@SepticFuddy Ай бұрын

@@invisionz-_-699 Other than maybe replacing the plug coils and/or running high detergent oil for a short time and then replacing it, I'm afraid I wouldn't know any more than you do. I had misfires on my other 5.4 (2v not 3v), I think from accidentally overfilling oil once, and after changing the plugs (with Motorcraft) I had a few misfires from gunk running through the engine. They went away pretty quickly and haven't returned for over a year. I did an oil change within a couple months of doing the plugs, so that may have removed the offending gunk. Good luck though!

Just this weekend doing this on my 2011 expedition with 268k Miles. This was the first time the timing was done on this vehicle, I have owned it since it had 5k miles. I had a oil leak coming from the front of the oil pan, and a broken exhaust manifold bolt is why I did this project. I also replaced both exhaust manifolds the down pipes to the muffler. I replaced all the roller followers, and lash adjustors. The only broken piece in the timing area was the left tensioner seal had a piece missing. None of the guides were broken, all the followers were good, the were fine. The only hiccups were the brake booster line on the back of the manifold, I didn't push it on all the way causing a lean code. Next is a heater hose, the connection at the fire wall isn't pushing on the hose. I think the spring clamp is worn out, and being News Years day, I'll have to wait to get a new hose. I used all the recommendations of Brain, and played all 4 videos of the timing job while doing the work step by step. I had his oil pan video open as well, and the transmission service video too. This was a big job, and is not quit as easy as the video make it seem. It really took me about a week to do all this work in a driveway on jack stands, but I also had Christmas and the cold to content with. I'm also not a professional mechanic, ( a not a wrtter either) but if you follow the video and pay attention you can do this. Thank you Ford Tech, BZ on the videos. Next job is a 2003 F150 with 396k miles on the clock.

I do have to point out one thing though, as you are doing the job, you make it look so easy, when in actuality that was probably one of the hardest jobs I've ever taken on. I'm a Master Electrician and this job is not for the faint of heart. I'm not trying to scare anyone, It took me 36hrs. With the help of friends and family. I do know the job got done right and now I have piece of mind. Thank you again for reaching out to everyone with fords and teaching us your knowledge. We are all very blessed to have a mechanic like you to teach us these things. Keep sending us ur videos, you have a subscriber for life. Ps, my truck runs excellent now.

I just finished this...including a new oil pump...and found this to be very helpful. I've been doing this for over 40 years and it's never too late to learn something new. The oil pump on the car is a real pain. But not as much as pulling the pan! It can be done. Just be sure to use towels in the pan so when you drop your bolt...and you WILL drop it...you can retrieve it. I also did this without pulling all the cam followers. I don't think you can do it without pulling the three per side...but it is not necessary to pull them all. Just make sure you install the phasers, chains, and crank gear without moving anything. Then double check by rotating the crank to the proper spot, use the crank tool to ensure proper location, and make sure your marks and links are aligned. If you missed by a tooth or so, it's easily correctable at that point. Also...another tip...paint the bottom of the link on the inside chain that aligns with the crank gear mark. That way you can tell if it's in the right spot with both chains installed.

This was a monstrous job but an awesome education. Brian is a life saver and great TEACHER! Job done and fired up perfectly. Runs great for the age. Follow the videos exactly and the job will turn out perfectly.

@@CraigThomas2070 It's been over a year since I did this job. From memory, the last thing I did was put all of the roller followers back in. Once I had the motor "timed", meaning I matched up the crank and cam sprockets in accordance with his video, I simply rotated the cams to easily access each of the valves more easily and insert the followers using the special tool. There may be another way to do it, but I'm not aware.

@CraigThomas2070 4 жыл бұрын

@@richardbrooks9678 thanks brother, I appreciate the feedback. I just finished installing guides, chains, tensioners. I think using the 32mm socket to spin the crank will make it easier to get the followers in. I have all specialty tools required and I am an advocate for the spring compressor. It's just the right way to do it. I have some cleanup to do on gasket surfaces, but covers should be going on here shortly. It's great to see the light at the end of the tunnel on this project. Anxious to hear this 200k engine run silly smooth again.

@richardbrooks9678 4 жыл бұрын

@@CraigThomas2070 Sounds like you're going about it the same way I did. 32MM Socket on the crank with a giant breaker bar was my move. Then the spring compressor while the CAM lobes are pointing out so you have maximum clearance to get the followers underneath. You're at the finish line at this point. In my case, I upgraded my followers to the Ford Racing ones. Dramatic difference in engineering with pointed jets to the lobes, etc. Mine's sitting at 255k right now with no signs of slowing down. Solid 12 months and nearly 20K Miles since all the upgrades/repair. Best of luck on fire up! PS. On mine, I could never get the oil pressure switch to kick up when I was priming even though I don't have any leaks that I'm aware of. I let it crank for a bit to move the oil through and then proceeded to start it without any issue. The switch kicked up as soon as the motor was running.

@jasoncopello6973 5 жыл бұрын

Anybody that gave these videos thumbs down must have been confused of what the thumbs down button actually meant. My 2009 F150 King Ranch 5.4L has not ran/sounded this good since she was new! Some lessons learned: 1.) My Cam shaft sensor was too hard to get to after everything was put back together to prime the oil pump as suggested. I was able to prime by pulling the fuel pump circuit breaker. When you turn the key to prime, make sure you do not hear the "hiss" of the fuel pump engaging before you crank it over. 2.) F that steering pump! 3.) If your truck runs great after the initial startup and then a few minutes later begins to chug and have issues at idle (may stall) check that your brake vacuum booster line is still connected on both ends. When I was moving all of my harnesses on the drivers side over to get the cam cover out, I inadvertently disconnected it from the back of the motor. My brake pedal would not depress and the engine idled very poorly. If it is disconnected, it will allow air to bypass the seal and draw an excess of air from the engine causing poor idle and no brakes. 4.) If you forget to put the cam sensor back into the front cover before it gets mounted back on, you can loosen the 3 bolts on the A/C compressor and slide it to the side enough to insert it back onto the front cover. 5.) Subscribe to FordTechMakuloco. I can not thank you enough FordTechMakuloco!

Few things to share that might help someone else. Total cost for mostly orm parts was between 1000 to 1200. Including ac refill etc. I had no lift but a garage thankfully. Truck was down for a while. Lol I also changed Water pump Thermostat Hv360 oil pump Power steering pump as it was rotted. Its kind of a pain to get to the bolts. Which also could be rotted Power steering lines were changed too, they were rotted too Timing chain install is super easy because the chains are color coded. Once chains were on i torqued the phaser bolts Changed cams too as passenger side was chewed up from bad rocker. Past 20k about, lol Also i took a short cut that may be a bad idea but it worked tor me. I installed all new lash adjusters and rockers first then cam. Instead of putting rocker arms in after. Worked for me, try at your own risk😂. Its kinda tight in there and a pain to keep turning engine over and putting rockers in. Truck is 05 5.4 3v, 275k all original, except trans, LT headers, 5 star tune, efan, shift kit, cat back, 4.10s truck moves good for what it is. ,"only" 300hp with 5800 curb weight as hd with 7 lug. The mods helped wake it up for sure. And better mpg too. Oil pump is a pain too. I did it with just a regular wrench because after over a 1000 i was too cheap to buy the flex neck, lol I also bought all my parts at a online ford site and saved a ton. Ford cams were only 108 ea. Good luck all. Your ribs may hurt after this job. I know mind did

I just completed the timing job on my 2006 F150 @ 189k miles using this video series. Truck runs like a champ now. The thing that finally forced me into doing the job was a ticking sound on the driver side bank. Based on Brian's other videos it was likely a roller follower and I knew better than to just ignore it and keep driving. Turns out it was indeed one of the intake roller followers on cylinder 7. The roller had already dropped and was beginning to seize. Luckily there was no additional damage. Also, it was interesting to note that the phasers and tensioners still appeared to be in good condition. The guides were also still in one piece although they were fairly deeply grooved from the chains after all those miles. I replaced everything including all roller followers and lash adjusters and it runs like new. Can't thank you enough Brian !

The right side valve cover is tough to get off because of the AC pipes, but just when I thought I was beat it finally came off, had the same issue putting it back in. I had a problem with the harmonic balancer, there were no holes to help with removal so I used a three arm puller and after lots of struggling got it off. I also was unable to use the rocker removal tool at the back of the engine, no room and I could not see what I was doing so was very worried about dropping a valve. Resorted to turning the engine to timing alignment position, making sure that I could see the R and L marks on the correct side, and removing the cams and phasers. Had a struggle getting the cams aligned but finally managed it. Removed plugs and turned engine over a few times to make sure the valves were not hitting the pistons. First time found a roller that had slipped and was jamming the cam. Removed the cam and used some grease to hold the roller is place and it worked fine the second time. All seems to be running well with no tick. Thanks again!

Just completed this job on my 2011 expedition 206,000 mi. I used all the links to purchase parts (+followers & oil pump). I had a couple of issues. First do not buy a cheap follower and crank tool as I did! The slot was off on the crank alignment tool and the follower tool was difficult to remove on certain followers. When finished I had loss of power and bank 1 actuator was open. I pulled the valve covers back off and changed out the new solenoid with another new one cleaned bank 2 solenoid (was probably just oil contamination after 30 miles oil was dark) new oil and filter 5w-30 this time and this engine runs like new! Thank you very much for your time, experience, and thorough details.

Thank you for this video series! This was a big job but was much easier with your help. We only had a few small issues (and one lasting one). Make sure to take the back off the oil pump and prime it like FordTechMakuloco says. Mine wouldn't build pressure and we had to build a priming contraption to get it to work. I used all Ford OEM parts as recommended too (except for the Melling oil pump). I have one issue that came up a day after completing the timing that I could really use some help on. The next day, and after driving about 30 miles, the truck started to sputter like it was misfiring. I checked to make sure the coil plugs were all connected well and even unplugged some while running to see if I could narrow it down but that didn't help. I did unplug both VTC's as well and started it up and no change. The plugs were also done about a year ago. I had it towed to a Ford dealer because it's 10 degrees out and they ran a diagnostic. Said it's showing low relative compression on bank 2 for all 4 cylinders. The only part I didn't replace was the VCT's because I thought they were working before and I could replace later if need. Is it possible for a bad VCT to cause the poor running and low compression? Ford doesn't think so and wants to tear the engine apart. We triple checked the timing marks before putting the covers on and it did run fine for a day. If anyone has experienced this or knows what to do I'd really appreciate it! Thanks again for the videos.

@jeremygood3665 2 жыл бұрын

**UPDATE** Just changed the left side (bank 2) VCT Solenoid and fixed the issue! If you're going into your high milage engine to change all the timing parts, do what the video says and change the VCT solenoids or risk breaking down later. It's going to cost you more for a tow than the parts. Ordered the other one and will change it as well. You can do this without taking the valve covers off as other videos have shown but it is much easier to do before you put them back on.

AWESOME videos! I just finished tear down and clean up of the sealing surfaces and am beginning rebuild. I did hope to ask... Since the final timing is all done by lining the colored marks on the chain up with the "R" for right "L" for left and the timing dot on the crank sprocket, is it really necessary to turn the crank to the position required for the OTC tool after removong ALL of the roller followers. It seems that you could pull the 3 roller followers per side, rotate the cams to their neutral position, then take the phasers, chains, tensioners, and guides off. At this point, pull cam shaft and swap the remaining rolloer followers and reinstall the cams with the 18 roller followers that can remain in while the cams are at neutral position... then simply reinstall everything at this position. The cams are super stable at this position. The main reason i ask is because if we simply leave cam in the neutral position throughout, we could pull cams and swap out roller followers super quickly without having to use the valve spring compressor for all of the roller followers (other than the 3 per side that are required). Sorry for the wordy post but it seems like keeping the cams and crank in same position throughout would save a lot of headaches with the roller followers.

@@chrisgraham8711 check the area on the head for parts of the casting in the way. If I remember right the exhaust valves had some parts on the head casting that prevented the tool from compressing all the way. Those are the ones that I tightened it as much as it would go and then used a screw driver to pop the follower out the rest of the way. Check the ones that came out easily to see which way they want to go. Then when you pry make sure you are pushing the follower the same direction. I think the exhausts were opposite of the intakes as far as which direction they want to slide in and out. Also remember the part about making sure the valve goes down with the spring. I had one where the valve was still protruding just a bit but when I pressed the valve back all the way down with the spring that was enough to let the roller follower come out

I had one instance of start up chain rattle after my 2011 expedition sat a week. Then once more but much less noticeable after sitting a few days. It has 115000 miles and I had the money so I ordered the parts to do it. What I found was engine in beautiful shape. I use synthetic oil and used 5w-20 the first 100000. The roller rockers were all tight but I had gotten new ones so I replaced them too. However, I mentioned that chain rattle because the only issue I found was the stationary chain guide on passenger side was broken due to blown tensioner and of course chunks missing. I had to drop the front diff and pull the oil pan to get them out. The vehicle never rattled once if it was started within a couple days of parking. No chunks were stuck in the pickup. Don’t ignore that rattle. Don’t waste your money on the cheap spring tool, it’s garbage. Don’t attempt this unless you’re a wrench turner. I have rebuilt engines and this wasn’t fun. It could easily overwhelm or intimidate someone inexperienced. Power steering pump and rockers were a pain in the butt. Great videos though. Thanks.

During video 4, you completed setting the time and started moving on to installing the timing cover back. At the very end is when you put all 24 of the roller followers back in. Is there a specific reason that you waited until then? I completed the timing ( per your step by step instructions, but instead of the timing cover, I put them back then. I did this so I could crank the cams over ( only to the right ) to allow the lobes to the round side. This made it easier to fish the roller followers in when compressing the valve with the tool. Did I mess up?
