    Thanks to Brian, I’m now starting a timing set on my 98 Exp. After 20 years of never using my air conditioning, I’m removing all that associated plumbing / containers for clearance in the passenger side. Inner fender guards are now out. I’m also going to slowly loosen the cam caps evenly, after setting that crank tool on the crank/ pin first. All rockers are getting changed, along with that high vol. pump he has mentioned. Thanks for all the spot on videos for us !!!👍

I had no timing issues but I didn't want to wait for a problem to arise...I also changed phasers, roller flowers, plugs, coils VCT solenoids, and crankshaft gear, oil pump. The camshafts and lash adjusters were in great shape so I didn't change them out. All went well, running great so far. Thank you for all you do.

Hopefully this information will help with someone who gets the plates ...

    A garage wanted a $1600 to just to pull apart the drivers side head to find out the problem
    . I decided to to take both heads off myself , i sent to them to get rebuilt . $750 . My main concern was the timing , this video on timing was amazing . It was true life saver . Overall for less than $1600 , parts and Labor by myself . I got a brand new running truck . I love my 97 Ford Expedition . Got 219k on the dash . Totally worth it than investing a new truck . Thank you thank you thank you

    A sincere thank you. Especially for the disclaimer at the end regarding doing the job without all the specialty tools. Timing was secondary to having removed the heads for a seized piston. I read through Alldatas info in advance and then followed this video, pausing periodically. After completion. I had worries if gauging the locations were off that I could cause a lot of damage but at the conclusion with the explanations you gave. I feel very confident that all the timing is correct. Tomorrow I still need to put all of yhe top end together but I'm confident timing is correct. Thanks again!

    It would be great if you could do more videos on the 5.4L V8 2V. SOHC Triton engines. I own a 2002 F-250 super duty 2WD ( why exactly they decided to make a rear two wheel drive super duty, I haven't the foggiest of a clue why..) with the 5.4 liter two-valve Triton and I have a difficult time finding much helpful information that pertains to my specific truck model and/ or the engine model ( respectively). I have scoured the web trying to learn as much as I possibly can about doing work on these things. I am not a mechanic, I just started learning about this stuff for a few reasons, one is that I want to be able to work on and fix my own vehicle, two, I don't want to pay for someone else to work on my stuff ( cause I am cheap, mechanics are not. And I am broke..) and lastly, I just plain like to learn and know about useful things. Knowledge is power in my book. So, if it's possible to do more videos for the 5.4 liter 2- valves, it would be awesome. Maybe some videos on my particular model of super duty, I had a question about the ABS system and cruise control on my truck. I have retrieved the ABS module DTCs for both of the front wheel speed sensors input missing, further inspection showed that I am missing the tone rings on both sides, therefore my ABS doesn't work and neither does my cruise control due to the ABS system fault codes ( I believe), I am a little confused about the whole procedure to fix the tone rings problem. I was led to believe that I would just be able to slap on some new tone rings but when I looked for replacements online I can't find any other than the one tone ring for the rear differential, when I talked to someone at the local "stealership" ( as I like to call it) the had told me that there is no replacements for just the tone rings and that I would have to buy a whole new hub assembly for each side running about $300.00 or so a piece. However, I have seen videos ( one of them your's) where they're able to just swap out the broken tone rings. So I am getting some contradicting information hear and I cannot justify spending that much on new hub assemblies, nor could I even if I wanted to cause I cannot afford to pay that. Some clarification on the subject would be greatly appreciated 🙏 also I would like to thank you for the videos that you have made and for sharing your knowledge and experience with people like me that have the willingness and need to learn about this stuff. Keep up the good work!!!! 👍👍🤘🤘

    I own a 02 King Ranch F150 with the 5.4 and I was wondering if and when the time comes for a 'crate motor' is there a better motor platform to switch to at that time or something more appealing to a mechanic that is flawless? Just curious before I cross that bridge because I bought this truck for the wife and she liked it for a couple weeks and then decided she liked my Jeep better and well, I started driving the KR and to be honest it's become one of my favorite possessions. I could buy anything I wanted new or otherwise, anything and this appeals to me. I like everything about it so I decided to rebuild it or replace parts. My question is who to use and what motor or replacement? Love your channel and subscribe. Thanks, edit to add, I'm fifty or sixty miles north of Tulsa.

    @FordTechMakuloco I’m a Ford guy and i watch/appreciate all of your videos! I have a 2002 F250 Super Duty 5.4L and I’m doing valve cover gasket/lash adjuster/roller follower job! (Right after a broken dipstick tube at manifold job!) I watched your 3V roller follower/ lash adjuster removal and installation video, but i just want to verify if its the same process on a 2V engine as far just having cam at base circle when removing roller followers and when they are at base circle do i have to worry about any of the valves hitting a piston at all? And second do you have any suggestions on what roller followers/lash adjusters to buy? Lastly are there any tips you have for these things I’m fixing? Thanks again for all of the videos keep them coming!

    • @00jake00
      @00jake00 2 роки тому

      I know you posted this a long time ago but I'm hoping you got to this project by now. Question 1- How did you remove the lash adjusters and followers? I'm guessing its the same as the 3v's and the same tools? Question 2- If you did do the job what parts did you get? I see rockauto has some different makes but the melling ones are on B/O so maybe I should get a good quality set from NAPA or Orielys, I defiantly don't want to a job like this twice you know.

    Loved the video it's very helpful, I just had one question. I saw that the plastic tensioner had a gasket but I saw you installed the cast iron ones with no gasket. If I switch to the cast iron does that mean I no longer need a gasket?

    • @MrUbiquitousTech
      @MrUbiquitousTech 4 роки тому +5

      Yes, the plastic one is hydraulic so it needs a seal to contain the oil to build up pressure. The cast iron one is mechanical and therefore doesn't need a tight seal.

    • @johnpadgett3388
      @johnpadgett3388 4 роки тому

      ford put a ton of money into a new plastic tentioners for some reason... so high heat or high pressure situations imo require metal
      stock daily use plastic

So I did the VCT solenoid and low and behold bank 2 was a Dorman.They both looked fine ,unnnnnntil I looked at the ends.The snap ring and all the guts are gone.I don't know where the parts are but I'm assuming they went down.Haha I think I watched every video of yours ,but you might have to make another one.This ones another great video.

    This timing job video made doing a timing job DIY style look really really easy. As someone who wouldnt have a lot of money laying around, our biggest fear is having Valves and Pistons kiss. I just reached 140k on my '02 F150 with the 5.4 2v and when I heard you say the words of now this timing set will go for another 150k-200k. I should start saving up. Great video and my EGR tube did the same thing and came lose the way yours did in the video when I replaced my cracked Intake Manifold. I need new Valve cover gaskets so I'm glad the covers squeeze by it. Great video 👍 and lots of hidden and helpful info/input.
