Why didn't you just take off the camshafts? What am I missing?
Ford is junk, you're always fixing them.
I love your OCD noises.🤣😂🤣
What’s up with stealing WhooTee Whos intro?
Your videos are the highlight of my bus ride home. Thanks for all of it. I tap tap tapped my subscribe button a while ago.
I've done two 5.4 3 valves on the timing chains, cams etc for customers, lots of labor…..parts and labor, not cheap. Plugs are a art to remove if they've never been pulled before. I won't do anymore 5.4's, rather work on 7.3 Ford diesels or anything else.
.,
I like how u said this wouldn't happen with a chevy motor. So I guess chevy engines dont have lifter failure that bends the rod and then on my great experience drops the valve and destroys the engine. Only FORD must have that, u are definitely entitled to your opinion but I have lost respect for your comment and will no longer watch any of your videos, just saying from my experience in losing a shit.3liter chevy at 77000 probably shouldn't say things like this wouldn't happen if it were chevy because that is complete false information that was spreaded.
il be the one to say it but hearing we landed on the moon, just took me to futurama for carrying some harpoons
one chain has obtained freedom, 2 chainz has obtained freedom.
"the phone hurts my head" <serieus metal in the background>
You should not have to buy a $220 specialty tool to do your job. Beyond ridiculous.
I did this same service on my 2006 F150 with about the same mileage.
I also threw in an upgraded Melling oil pump and a new water pump.
It's a real bear to do this work… She purrs like a kitten now.
Question please: would it not have been easier on you body to lift the engine out please?
Hi ray I I think you are so smart I watch every day Iean so much my name is Thomas Krakowski I live in Saint Paul Minnesota thank you your friend tom
If I thumb up n fst fwd 2 end. Does that count if I have to go elsewhere?
Glad every day that my 2012 F-150 has the 5.0 liter V-8
Why did you had to remove the valve levers?
Top video
A lot of the good mechanics I have known in the past I would have called them Looney Tunes. After watching your channel I see that is a good way to deal with the problems and frustrations your job brings. Thanks for the entertainment.
Need to find yourself a yellow foam old couch cushion to lay on. They work pretty good
man this channel gets me excited to go to work, and its a sunday… idk whats wrong with me
That's one of the worst engine Ford ever made
What is the third valve for?
You do not have to remove the rockers and camshafts to change the (faser/camsft gear on the 5.4triton engine . I have changed three sets of them
You're a good mechanic, i hope your boss appreciates that, you bring him LOTS of business..
I would NEVER buy a Ford between the chains, phasers, sparkplug issues, etc. NO WAY
I must have missed it. I saw the wear on the timing chain cover and the chain too, but… what was the cause?
ah the 5.4 triton. Spark plugs go WEEEEEEE!
the guy's that came up with the idea of the guides and tensioner's that are used in a lot of engine's should be named and shamed the pain stress and cost it's put on every one involved is off the scale
What's a job like this cost ? I may want to do a timing chain replacement soon.
One of the things I miss most about my earlier days working in a shop. Yucking it up with the the guys, trying to understand woman, and swearing. It brings a nostalgic smile to my face. It was our “unsafe space” , and I loved it!
As I am no mech are you concerned with dust or debris when removing the covers?
Eveytime you say "come out" I kinda hear Arnold Schwarzenegger accent. lol
This is probably the one job a well-designed and well-maintained engine with a timing chain shouldn't need during the average car's life. It almost makes you appreciate the simplicity of a timing belt. Great job there, Ford.
Now I know there are contributing factors to valvetrain/timing chain damage like missed drain intervals and wrong oil quality but this is ludacris.
If you are replacing the chains by removing the phasers, why not just line up the marks on the crank and cams, swap chains and keep going? Why the removal of the followers?
i was going to ask if you had ever seen a topside creeper i resale and i just got one in and had never seen one before i worked as a mechanic off and on more off than on in my life (i am past retirement age and still working cause i want to ) i thought it was cool but turns out a very hard item to sell enjoy your videos thanks
I wonder why the took the 5.4 out of the F150’s after 2010 but not the expedition’s?
Over engine creepers! But I work in a shop with limited space sir…
At what point does the time spent dealing with the hard-to-access parts and bolt justify just pulling the engine and working on it in the air?
Serviceability! Lol. I think the engineers, and treehuggers from the EPA should have to work on this stuff themselves. I guarantee if the did they would head back to the drawing board.
You didn't have to take all the followers off only two essential ones on each side of the engine ,go to the FORD MAKE YOU LOCO videos, so you can see what l mean.
what milwakee chubby you using at 3/8 or 1/2? whats the model number?
You said something about the 'infamous' 5.4l 3-valve… from the design on the tensioners, I cannot understand why not o-rings used for the seal… easy enough to put in a design.. just a lazy solution using tiny gaskets…. but then it is a Ford….. And serviceability?? well, I deal with Hondas, so what do you think??
Like a Surgeon, complex, complicated procedures, like it was an operation done for the very first time.
Such a diverse problem solver !
You think manufacturers have gone passed timing belt to timing chain so the engines become More reliable, but it’s not so.
