    Hey Ray Ray. Thanks for doing my trailer tires last month. I work at dorman and I was a quality engineer from 2016 until 2022. When I started the warranty Rate was over 50% and I got it down to less than 15% before I took a higher position in Dorman. They've really turned the focus more toward quality.

      I just bought and installed a Dorman coolant reservoir on my 2011 Ford F-150 with the 3.5 Ecoboost and so far that bottle is solid. It got awesome reviews from everyone who bought one and it saved me about $75 compared to the Motorcraft part. I also likes what Dorman did with the heater hose for my truck. Replacing the stupid plastic "Y" pipe with an aluminum pipe. Nice job!

    Being an internet armchair mechanic there’s been a lot of brutal episodes/jobs that have spoiled my Zen lately!😂
    Living precariously through your troubles and tribulations of these repairs is entertaining in its self, sometimes I’d give away my fortunes ( I have no fortune 😂) for a quick fix and a oil change but that ain’t real life.
    Ray don’t let the comment section get you down brother, you’ll go crazy over a minority of viewers that you ain’t going to please looking to point out something thing to complain about, when you open yourself/life out for public display there will be jerks yanking your chain.
    It’s disheartening to know that it’s getting under your skin, Ray..we all love you and your content. Don’t get involved in these internet flame wars, there’s no winners just opinions and like azzholes everybody’s got one.
    Watching you go through jobs with a joke and a smile and just persevere is remarkable ! 🙂
    Most techs would just basket case these projects, but you’re honest and show the mistakes and learn from them.
    Yes sometimes I feel I’m watching rainman rays little garage of horrors, but that’s your charm, you never know what is coming in the door and it works and is part of my morning routine at work.

    I hated doing electronics warranty work. The pay was crap for all the effort. But there was part of me which just would not allow me to do a half- axxed minimal repair for warranty. I always looked for other potential problems- mostly bad solder joints (Just love that horrible lead free solder) and repaired them. I had close to zero call back rate (.01 %) and refused to compromise on my work standard and ethic, even if it cost more time and effort. At least I could go home feeling that my work was above standard quality for the industry.

    Ray, you didn't look at the instructions that came with the new phaser. The bolt is a torque to yield. The new bolt has to be torqued to 30 lb-ft, then turned an additional 90 degrees. I have a new FoMoCo phaser with instructions in front of me. Confirmed the specs. BTW, I have actually done this job.

    I have to do some more maintenance on the BMW. These videos motivate me to get on it. @ timestamp 15:49 I'm guessing that the old Cam Phaser missing the pin is the source of your clicking (moving spring). I too have noticed Doorman's increase in quality. I don't seek them out, but they have definitely come up. When I have been forced to use them, they have come through lately.

    DORMAN PARTS!
    My 2012 JEEP 2 door NSG370 six-speed transmission (Mercedes built in Stuttgart Germany Transmission Plant) lost 5th and 6th gear. I watch Eric O at SMA install a NSG370 with the updated DORMAN Shift Tower. I ordered a RE-MANUFACTURED NSG370, not a rebuild. Found the shift tower at WALMART on line (lowest price). The shift pattern is tighter and the shift throw is shorter. In a nut shell.... LOVE IT!.

    Thanks, Ray, for telling us in Montana about Florida damp weather. We are only -32 degress plus wind chill puts it as -45 degrees. Oh, and we only have two feet of blowing snow. I don't think I could handle the bad weather in Florida it must be brutal. 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂

    On some Dorman stuff, they are notorious for junk, but now they have come out with some high-quality metal replacement parts like those valve covers and the PentaStar oil cooler upgrade.

    The difference in the phaser is the old design vs new. They changed the thickness of the spring and added that stud to hold more tension on the spring. I know the wedge seems sketchy but we changed tons of 3V Mustang cams using those and never had one slip if wedged tightly like you did. The chain guides have a lip to them so it can only move so much.
    That said the only thing i saw was the phaser bolt install. It is a torque to yield and should be replaced anytime it is removed. It is 30 ft/lbs plus 90 degrees on the bolt. It is hollow to pass oil to the phaser. If over/under torqued they are known to collapse and back out. If this happens, it usually eats the cam and the phaser and sometimes the timing cover and valve cover.
    I also realize this is warranty work so they may have cheaped on that as well.

    • @GaryH-pw9cm
      @GaryH-pw9cm 4 місяці тому

      Yes the torque is critical on that bolt. It is a special bolt. And should be replaced.
      I hope it does not fail.

    The pin that you noticed was missing on the old one is the reason it rattles. The pin shears and causes the noise until oil pressure builds. Gotta love a Triton!

    Ray I like the longer videos. Looking forward to the exhaust manifold change whenever it comes out. I'll have to do mine at some point but right now it's not making any noise but I can see a crack or two in the manifold.
    Changing the phasers by themselves is fairly painless. That is in relation to doing the entire timing set. The most aggravating thing for me was getting the power steering pump back into place and the valve cover on the passenger side on and off without having an a/c machine to evacuate the refrigerant. I like the 5.4 other than all the timing problems. decent power and all. I'm considering either putting a 4-BT Cummins in it or removing the current timing setup and doing what I saw a guy on here did a few years go and do a homebrew (insert some random supercar name I can't bother to remember here) valve actuation setup with off the shelf parts. Not decided yet but I may re-power with the Cummins and do the mods with the 5.4 out of the truck. Sadly it's stuff like the timing issues on the 5.4 and other similar things across all manufacturers that have given me a desire not to own anything much newer than I already have. Too many stupid decisions put into vehicles by stupid politicians and the even more dumbass EPA.

    I can relate to the bit about Florida humidity, Ray... been there for conferences and training sessions where it was so humid you would get out of the shower, dry off, get dressed, and then feel like you needed to dry off again before you finished breakfast!
    OTOH, the Cuban food and coffee was great!
    Was anyone else yelling "steering shaft" at the screen, worried Ray was going to forget the reattach it?
    "I wuv the wobblies!"... should that go on some of the next batch of mugs and hats?
