When you post information to read. Speed it up. Douche bag.
what is the trick to get the tranny and flex plate connected back togeather
Really? Your going to blame not frequent enough oil changes. Bullshit! Look at the design total junk I've rebuilt these before. In the era of the 4.0 4.6 and 5.4 all total junk until after 2008 when Ford opened the oil drain passages from the heads. All IC engines eventually sludge up. This is a German design total junk. Who in the hell would put a jack shaft where the cam shaft should be? Run the valve train timing chains in the front where they belong. And why a balancer shaft on the Exploders and not the rest of these junk Fords. That's why I don't drive a Ford. I drive a Jeep but avoid the 3.7 and 4.7. More German Junk. Do the research.
Can this be done in the Truck? Not sure there is enough room to pull the cassette out. 2007 ford explorer sport track
Engine or trans needs to be removed
Are these the same 4.0l as the 07 Ranger Cologne 4.0?
Yes
Is this still an issue on 2008 models? I’ve seen some references to the materials changing through the years.
Same issue nothing changed
Do you have to take the engine out to be able to do the front?
No
Well hello there.Your video's have been an amazing help to me.Just lost the front timing cassette in my 2010 Ford ranger.Just removed the timing chain cover and noticed the shaft is not at top dead center.Does this matter? Do i just go ahead and replace the cassette as is? Thank you soooo much.
The engine may have jumped time. You need to check for valve damage
Well hello there.I've been watching your videos and they are amazing.You've been so much help to me as i am no mechanic.Thank yoi so much.So even though i drove it home for approximatly 45 minutes with no issues other than the rattle sound it still may have jumped time?
And my apologies.I should have mentioned that i drove it home for approx 45 minutes with no issues.
You are really on point when it comes to Fords! Really wish you were closer to NC so you could service mine. 🤦🏾♂️
The most unreliable car ever made. so annoying
noise from this particular guide area, suspected jumped timing but still runs, albiet rough after warm up. What is likely hood of valve damage
Two questions. 1. What is the downside to simply going from the battery to the alternator stud? 2. I've read Ammeters can be fire hazards. Why might this be? How do we prevent?
Thank you for this video.
Bro! Thank you for this video! Working on an 08 Mustang, and this thing has been giving me grief for like 4 weeks! I found your video this morning, it was out this afternoon! I hope you're doing well!
2004 ford explorer eddie bauer and had problems with low air flow and it always sounding like it's on max a/c... cut open the front like yours and the door had fallen, surprised I was getting as much air as I was. Pulled the door out and going to run it like that for a while. Already tell a lot more air flow. So happy I didn't let a mechanic work on it, heard this repair could have cost me upwards of 800$ O_O
Can u replace head gasket on soch 4.0 ford with out putting down the engine sir....
Nice tutorial, although I think I fried my ammeter! 😳
horse feathers.I,d like to pull an engine but I,m just to blank old.
Just found my upper driver side tensioner exploded and shot the metal bit into the cassette and shattered it. What's left of the cassette flops on to the chain. I would need to pull everything in front of the engine to replace the cassette? Any chance there's an easier way to replace the cassette and tensioner?
gotta pull everything
Great instructions. Helped me out alot. Thanks
Hey brother What about that top center cog that the chain attached to? Is that just a roller for the chain to move on?
Это круто, живу в Беларуси, езжу на форде 9 лет, много было поломок, твое видео очень помогает, сейчас буду снимать двигатель, буду пользоваться твоими видео как инструкцией. Все очень круто, ты крутой мастер!!!!
How do i know what transmission i have i got a 03 mountaineer awd v6 4.0 engine thanks new subscriber from ny
Someone said you have the change the timing chain when you change the water pump . Is that true ?
That is for a different Ford Explorer. Not this one.
Did you remove the transmission fluid before detaching the transmission? I need to replace the rear timing chain guide and then reinstall the same transmission.
No I left the fluid in
I been just letting mine rattle away for a long time now
Hi, I have the same engine and I can do all the work but am wondering if I can save the engine. Here's what happened. I started the truck and it started strange and started the loud rattle. Then boom just stopped running. Now it turns over as if it has no compression at all. Like the starter has no resistance. The left side valve cover has a hole in the front, and I can see the left head cam chain spinning normally. Do you think the main chain broke? and any chance I can pull the motor and save it? Thanks for any info.
It jumped time. You need to remove the engine, both cylinder heads and completely rebuild it
Thanks for the video, you're a life saver!
Do the cams have to come out?
No
How do you remove the harness from the cylinder head? I've been searching the Internet for way to long. I can't find a single video showing how to do it.
There’s a bracket
While you have the engine on the stand pull both oil pans and check for broken pieces or you might just wind up pulling the engine again.
More videos of this car
How much do you charge to do mine?
$500 you supply parts
@@iamdjnam bet where are you located
I'll drop off my truck
@Marcus-cj9bz yeah no you drop off the engine only
@@iamdjnam where you based out of?
I purchased front rotors that came with the bearing pre installed, do i need to grease the spindle before installing? Thank great tutorial 🫡
In response to my own question I solved it and learned another thing about the job. - bearings did not come pre installed. - lots of grease is required During my installation I reinstalled the front bearing that comes out upon removal of the rotor/hub assembly. But what stumped me was the rear bearing (which was not explained in this video as he stated). I learned the hard way as to why it sounded like a 12 ton metal bin was being dragged down the street on the test drive. The rear bearing was missing, why? Because it needs to be pried off the backside of the old rotor/hub assembly. Yes, its a good idea to swap out old with new, but in this case i just swapped the existing bearings and its fine and is an easy job in the future. Just use a flat head and a hammer and act like you are taking the lid off a paint can with the rear bearing. Installing is like your putting a paint lid back on, clockwise gentle hits to seal it properly!
I put 1 wire alternatorsGM110 amps straight from-the one post to the positive post on the battery, I have never ever had any problems,with battery or alternator, no need for anything in the wire ,just run a wire to the post +, on p.s. you will need a bigger pulley on tractor’s,they will self excite on it own,
Does anyone know the name of the hose at 26:06, I cannot find it under any names
@iamdjnam BRO I OWE YOU SO MANY BEERS!!
Motocraft oil filter allegedly has an anti drain valve in them to keep the oil from draining back into the oil pan in order to build oil pressure faster upon startup.
Most filters come with one today.
@@iamdjnam good to know. I kept seeing the motocraft oil filter being emphasized on the Ranger forum.
Quick question! If I’m doing a whole engine and transmission swap. From an 07 mountaineer to an 08 mountaineer can I just take the radiator support off and pull the whole thing out transmission and engine out
No the rad support is welded into the frame
@@iamdjnam thanks, love your videos bro keep it up
The factory service manual for my 04 ford explorer doesn't seem to indicate that the jackshaft sprocket bots should be discarded. Is this just a common practice or does Ford "require" those bolts not be reused. Thanks for the great videos!
They insist u discard but I reuse everything
Excellent! Thanks!
You did help, thank you❤👍!
Great vid.
Bro thank you for this video!! Saved me a major headache and some time and money. Much appreciated
Bro I took off the bolts from the transfer case but I’m pulling it back and forth but is not coming off. Any idea why? I checked and no more bolts around housing
Is there anything I need to do differently if I have a positive ground system?
Thanks!
Very well explained!!! Thank you
Thanks buddy. I follow your advice Every thing was the way you said it. Have a bless memorial weekend. 2024 🎉🙏
