This freaking sounds like my 2000 expedition 5.4 #4 #1 misfiring cant pass smog 228,000 HELP ME!! YES I HAVE CAR KNOWLEDGE TO UNDERSTAND EXACTLY WHAT YOUR SAYING. SO TELL ME THE FACTS.
Thanks
Will the Forscan work on a '97 F150 4.6 as well as the adapter from Amazon?
Thanks, and thanks for the videos.
Are these the newer design with the smaller holes you were saying in the video?
Hey my man good afternoon I would love to get some guidance
This is the best guy in the world for knowledge and presentation. He never says uh and doesn’t edit 10,000 times. He knows what he’s talking about because he lives it!
Its like going to the best automotive school every time I watch Brian's videos.
There is no school that's going to show you what this guy is showing!!!!
For Ford problems. Agree.
Yea he's a great guy. Imagine if he was like one of those online instructors charging money to view these 'courses'... But I might still pay a little for that haha
The only thing we learn is that he is a ford God and we are just mortals.
@@caesarflickerman7047 you got that right. Would love to work with him for about a year.
This is the reason I stopped working for a dealership. Techs are always looking for the quick repairs, to make more money. Actual diagnosing is just about non-existent. This man obviously knows what he's doing, and takes pride in his work. Nice work sir!
Man all these years you've been putting up these amazingly detailed, extremely informative videos and I can't thank you enough for your masterful insight. You truly are the Master of Diagnostics.
Great video and thank you for sharing your experience and knowledge with us. 👍
Very informative video thank you a lot
I wish you was close to Pittsburgh pa to help me with my 2010 ford f150 Harley davidson 5.4L triton engine...good mechanical diagnosis and works man ship
FoMoCo should be sponsoring these videos, the wealth of knowledge you supply is priceless
Gotta tell ya, I have been in and around shops my whole life. Dad was a Ford parts manager for 37 years. You are the most talented mechanic I have ever seen. Great explanations. You have helped me repair my Ranger multiple times. Thankyou !
The difference between "glorified parts changers" and a real mechanic. Diagnostic ability!
Is there many of these guys left? Man this guy ur the best great comment!
But the computer didn’t say it popped off!
@GGALLIN1776 I hit a driver door a while ago. Was quoted something like $1,200 to change 4 nuts and an electrical connector in the door jamb. Within 3 minutes on Facebook I found the exact same model car in the exact same paint colour for $600 from Bumper to Bumper the entire car... needless to say he was a little pissy lol
Amen
Parts changer here!
We as Americans people are very lucky to have you on our side . And not the dealership. What would we do without you. You are the best friend any person can have on U-tube
Back to basics! Why everyone over thinks the engine operation because of electronics, it's been that way since the first ECM. Good job Brian!
@James Masn you are definitely correct but i would like to add one reason for the lack of knowledge.
Mechanics do not get paid enough. Anyone who has the mental capacity to do this kind of work could easily go into another industry. They will make more, won't have to take out a mortgage for tools, and won't destroy their body in the process.
So from what I see everyone is going to enjoy the shortage of skilled mechanics for the foreseeable future.
@@bobt8578 you are exactly correct! Between the cost of tools, advanced brand specific education, getting paid book time, shop/dealership corruption and a host of other things is why I didn't stay working as an auto mechanic. Many car guys also won't get to be exposed to but so many scenarios and the lack of good pay won't justify staying on the job. There is already a shortage of mechanics in this field because of the reasons I've stated. Sad
Joseph Miller it’s not only that you can only learn mostly through doing and Brian does a lot of these so it’s easy for him. He knew right away it wasn’t from diagnosing it was due to experience and doing. These things need to roll in the shop for most unless the employer sends techs for training
True I left automotive to fix home appliances make almost 20000$ more a year work 8-6 mon- fri got it made no more nights or weekends at the dealer
I also have a 2007 f150 Ford every time I've had a problem with my Ford I always watch his videos and he gives you a wealth of knowledge of how to fix it and when I after I get done watching his videos and I go and fix my Ford it comes out perfect all the time thank you
Maybe buy something you don't have to Fix Or Repair Daily.
@@boblongbow9170 you mean those service bays at the other dealers never get used? Amazing!
Diagnosis skills....separates the pros....Thanks!!!!
Diagnosis skills separate the pro's from the schill's!
this is why i watch your stuff brian, i have an 09 f-150 5.4 with almost 409,000 kms on it.
you’ve kept me running.
thank you.
I gotta say; you are without question, the best video tech mechanic I know.
Poor customer, have him spend all that money for no reason good job Brian
Wonder if he could get partial or full refunds.
@@tmaq9726 probably won't get a refund
Can’t imagine how much money he spent.. pry paid the value of that expedition
Its infuriating. You spend good money to get a professional opinion and work. And then you get nothing better than the kids down the street opinion. Its criminal.
@Bailey Hatfield PCM is like $800 isn't it?
Man, this right here is the exact reason I subscribe to your channel. I did a timing job on my 09 last year and replaced all of my roller followers and the oil pump with the newest upgrade at the same time. Keeping my truck running like a top. Thanks man!
Your videos are truly an encyclopedia of Engine Repair. I am on the market for this type of vehicle this year 2020. Keep up the good work!!!!
This guy is an amazing mechanic, hands down. I like the way he diagnosed the issue & followed thru with the repair. I just wish his shop was close to my home.
Nice job, I was a service writer for Ford, love it when I had mechanics that had great diagnosis skills like you!!!!! Made my life much better.
Brian is the GOAT of ford knowledge and mechanic diagnostics. Lots of respect for the help you give to the masses.
You know your stuff! Truly a phenomenal piece of diagnostics. You make the mechanic world a better place. THANKS!!!
Brian your the man. Been knocking out the projects on my F-150 this summer with your videos. Much love !!
Great work as usual. These 5.4s are such gifts to mechanics. Thanks for sharing your experience with all of us.
They are such a nightmare for anyone dumb enough to buy one!
Your videos helped me overhaul our 5.4L, 3-valve Expedition when other mechanics will only change out the engine. Looking forward to trying out Forscan -- have not heard about it until now. Thank you for all that you do!
I don't own a Ford but I love watching these videos. Factual information is somewhat of a premium these days. Thank you Brian.
You are the man!!! Great diagnosis, I really enjoy the content.
Any time a technician tells me the PCM is bad I tell them to go find something else wrong. It's 99% of the time NOT a PCM problem.
They can't though. They've read through the paragraphs, answered yes or no when the book asked. That's it, that's all the tech can do. By the way, the last step in the Ford service/troubleshooting manual is ALWAYS, replace PCM.
@@zachcoldwell7978 LOL The Book & Cant Think....... Seen Many Time
@@FixItStupid same,techs are such good little bolter on of parts guys so spiffy in their little uniforms and gloves. Seen some insane bills from the little red seal basterds an still not fixed. Once you figure it out it's always simple tho love that part.
@@zachcoldwell7978 I know. All manufacturers seem to operate the same way. But it's almost never the PCM. I always tell the tech he has to pay for the PCM if it doesn't fix the car. That's usually when they go find the real problem.
Many techs today are what I call a JAFI ... Just Another F###ing Installer. Manufacturers use to make it so things could be rebuilt. Now it's mostly one time use components.
Ford Tech Makuloco is a master jedi when it comes to Fords. I own a 2006 ford f150 5.4 v8 with 265,000 miles and anytime I have problems I go to Brian's videos. This guy is amazing 5 stars
Thanks again Ford Tech - God has given you a gift of knowledge and experience. I worked auto for a while then I went into Aircraft Maintenance for 31 years. But I still have a love of auto maintenance and love watching your videos and I still have a love for learning. Never too old to learn.
I have a 2007 Ford Expedition with the Triton 5.4. I am not a mechanic but I do thank you for the videos on maintaining Ford's F-150 and Expedition models. It's comforting to have a good idea of potential problems and then having a decent conversation regarding the issues. Keep up the good work.
Your experience has paid off for the customer, great video 👍😁
I'm a huge ford guy and a buddy of mine had a 05 mustang gt (4.6 3v), had a dead cylinder for intake and he took the vehicle to 4 different shops that replaced basically everything but still had a misfire. I then told him bring it by. I popped the valve cover and seen a roller popped off, sadly the cam didn't survive. All this knowledge is because of this awesome channel. Thank you bryan.
He’s definitely a master at his craft!!! I not only say this based on the great info provided in his videos, but also from my personal experience with him. He’s done work on my truck. It’ll go back the next time I’m due a major service.
Best auto technician on UA-cam hands down 👍🏻
Couldn’t help reading some comments..they are super positive and right on the money!
You Earn it! Great work!
I had absolutely NO reason to watch this, but I liked the host's attitude so I sat through it.
Clearly-explained and well-presented! 👍👍👍
I did a timing job per your videos and found the exact same roller follower had popped out. When you removed the valve cover I could tell right away because the lobe was bright and shiny from wear. Thanks for all the good work.. Saved me thousands
You’re the diagnostic guru for sure. I’ve learned so much about the 3v following all your videos. I have a 2005 F250 with the 5.4 3v has 289k original motor never had a failure.
Is it mostly highway miles?
I planning a road trio to Chicago just to have the timing job on my 07 expedition done by FTM i dont there is a better technician out there , that can match the quality of your work Brian, great video as always!!
That's cool I would trust FTM to work on my stuff but unfortunately too far. Dorman is ok for some things, I like their transmission pan w drain hole
Master Yoda status. I don't even have this problem but simply blown away by the thorough explanation and technical ability. Great vid.
Great video Brian, i have only seen this one time myself. And let me say, it kicked my butt for a min. THANKS for your willing to share.
Awesome job and love the videos. Wish you were in Texas, we need more knowledgeable and honest guys like you. Keep up the good work bud. 👍🏼
Yes we need him I have done everything myself on this truck but will probably get the tool to replace these.
Same, I'm in Texas also
issac njoku You don’t necessarily need the tool to replace these, I used a small handled pry bar to replace mine, just depress the lash adjuster and pop them out, installation is the reverse
Libertas501 thank you alot
In Texas, take it top scotty Kilmer
Im an independent technician. I really appreciate what you and others like you do for the mechanically inclined community. While this video was a random curious suggestion in my feed that im glad i watched, several of your videos have personally helped me and my business. Thank you.
Amazing troubleshooting skills! So sad so many people are simply parts swappers these days. It's the same for fixing electronics... I love how you always clearly show how to use the tools at your disposal to properly identify a problem first before replacing parts.
You are by far the best Ford modular motor mechanic, I've listened to you over the past year and a half and learned a lot all right thank you for that
good job bryan nice to work on same brands continualy see the common failures alot..
Brian thank you very much for your Ford f150 videos. I have battled the 4.6 for many years and you have always helped me without fail. you are an awesome specimen and hope that you and your family are blessed by God.
battled? why? sorry if i am uninformed… but I have always heard great things about the 4.6’s longevity and durability
@@nozrep yeah was going to say, my 4.6 is going strong and I've had minimal issues with it.
I got rid of my 5.4l 3v, but I still watch this stuff. Great videos.
I lost an intake follower on my #4 cylinder. Got stuck under the cam and destroyed it.
Great video! Thank you for such a detailed video!! We sell the coils for these trucks. Very occasionally we have a customer with a Ford Triton engine that has a misfire that no shop can diagnose. I will be forwarding your videos to customers who need in depth information on misfires!
Thank you for these videos especially on the 5.4 3V I fixed a lot of stuff myself just by watching your videos
Great job once again. Your awesome! You should write a book with all the tips and tricks for the 5.4L and sell it to the other mechanics. I would definitely buy it.
Thanks man for sharing knowledge!.. it’s hard to get that from lots of people but is the reason I watch your videos
Spot on!! My 2010 F150 made the ticking sound on # 3 and the roller follower had so much lash it run like it was out of timing. Replaced the whole side of roller followers and now the engine runs great! Thanks for all the videos you make.
That reveal was more exciting and tense than the Cyber truck reveal. More satisfying, too
always Awesome Man ! .. Thank you for all the help u do .
Had the exact same problem happened to me but on a 2006 3.7L Dodge Ram very hard to find problem changed everything from injector, to plugs, coils and problem was still there! Until I opened it up and sure thing the roller had popped out!!. Really enjoy your videos a lot of great info in them. Thanks 👍🏽
Thank u . Ur the most honestly best f150 Ford advice I ever seen, ur integrity is enough to watch and I ant kidding man, ur attitude is so real and I hope you the best of luck with your ford
Where's the 1000 like button so I can smash it.
Great diag as always .
Check out that awesome maintenance, Clean motor!
These engine respond well to maintenance. Besides the phasers, and exhaust manis. They really don’t give many headaches if you maintain them properly.
Wonderful diagnostic. Great work.
Incredible diagnosis my friend, my friends expedition has same problem, I’m going to check for same condition. God bless you sir
Thanks for awsome info genius.
First time watching you I am a Ford Tech myself started to struggle with this misfire watched your video led me right to the number 3 rocker arm... fell off after grinding on the camshaft
Well I have a Ford F150 that has been looked at by the so called good mechanics around here they have no idea.. One said co2 censor and I was thinking catalytic converter... Well when slowing down from 60 or so to a complete stop it starts to how do you explain it... Ummm almost like the timing is off but also a loud rattling.. Shut the engine off and start it back up and it's fine would love to fix this problem have you ever heard of this before... Hopefully the intake roller follower could be my ticket...
Great job! This is similar to the issue I had with my Expedition, couldn't deal with trial & error from various Repair Shops so I had to sell it.
Brian, my 2005 F-150 had misfire codes also. My scan tool was just a basic Actron. Nothing like what you have. I replaced plugs and coil packs and it didn't help. this truck had 201800, miles on it. So I took it to the Ford Dealer and asked them to hook it up to there computer and check it out. This truck's engine had oil changes every 3000 miles, give or take 500 miles or so. They said I needed a new engine! I believed them so ten thousand dollars later and four weeks I was back on the road. After watching most of your ford videos' I believe the problem was roller followers! I'll never believe a dealer again. You are the Man! You've also helped me do other repairs on this truck. Next week I'll be replacing a rear ABS sensor, fuel pump module, and oil change on rear pumpkin. Please keep up the Great videos I watch them all the time.
This was my exact issue and why I sold our Expedition.
How many miles on the expedition when this happened?
Your videos are great and have helped many 6.0 owners. Thank you
A real Ford expert hope I knew someone as professional as this technician nearby. Congratulations for this great video and all the knowledge you've acquired.
I feel like 95% of the shops out there are just glorified parts changers that hope for the best
or less.
Owning a FORD eventually makes you a pretty good mechanic. Lol
Yeah but owning a Chevy or dodge usually makes you bitter
It's a real treat to watch a true professional at work. In an age where shortcuts rule the day, and incompetence often follows very closely, a technician like you is truly worth is there a weight in gold!
wow , a compression test would have fooled me. I think i learned something very important and new today. Thanks for the tip!!
Now it makes it harder to sell the complete job, because the customer has been milked out of thousands for misdiagnosed repairs.
100% correct, our policy is, if we are wrong, there is no charge.
Just for knowing,,,,, how much will this job cost this customer? I was very impressed with you diagnostics abilities. Maybe I should take my 2012 Shelby GT500 for you to maintain for me. Where are you located. I’m in south Florida.
@@mosesvega5421 he is In the Chicago area. Sounds like a fun road trip.
Thousands?
FordTechmekeyouloco is the Ford horse whisperer.
I learn quite a bit about these mod motors from you. You are really easy to learn from. Good teacher!
Experience is the best tool in the shop. Great work.
One of the main reasons I got out of the business...too many hack garages that replace parts, give great mechanics a bad name!
7:50 Who saw it? Be honest...
May I ask what was it?
Awesome!
I'm going to do my timing chains, VCT, Phasers, water pump, Melling Oil Pump, and a full set of roller followers this weekend!
I have 180k on my '06 and when I inquired at my local garage they said I needed a new engine because the "Rear" timing chains on this engine required the engine to be pulled anyway. Wow! I certainly wasn't going to let them work on my truck!
Thanks to your inspiration, I think this is going to go well!
And that's why I subscribed to this channel!!! Good work!!!!
Customer is due a few refunds from these backyard mechanics. 💩
Really love your channel. Always a great video, with honest knowledge. Thank you so much!!!
Wow, thank you. As you know videos like these are amazingly valuable to people, even years after it’s made!
I wish I had a way to contact you for a few short questions about my “misfires” on my 2014 E-350. Anyway, amazing video and I learned a lot! Thanks Again.
Because of watching five of your videos I went out and fix my truck today thank you, the spark was plug was grounded out on the boot because of moisture.
You are the master...no substitute for experience...I'm suprised it went this far..see you on the next one ..Cheers 🍻🍻🍻🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
I've come upon this same situation about 3 times. Have also seen it on cylinder 3. Replaced cam, timing set and roller rockers. Just had another 07 three valve come in 3 days ago. Looks at cam error pids and seen the common right bank that always goes out at -14. Inspected with bore scope into oil fill and found the common right chain guide gone due to blown gasket on tensioner. Timing set definitely needed. Removed the easier left cover and found the left guide broken. The engine was oil starved for many seasons. Everything was nasty under the valve cover. My recommendation was getting a remanufactured engine. Great video for those people that don't understand Fords. Thanks
Love your videos they've been a godsend to me saving me tons on repair costs.
You are the man! You do great vids and have helped me keep my 07 f150 running well. I need to fix my ticking cyl 3 roller follower. Thanks to you I know what the problem is.
Great video, Brian. My neighbor has a truck with this engine in it. I'll have to let him know about this concern. I appreciate the information about the Forscan software, too. I have two Fords and will need this software to check up on them. Keep up the great work.
Fantastic video. Wish I'd watched it earlier... After replacing a spark plug, coil, and injector, we still couldn't figure out why we were seeing a misfire on a cylinder, and this turned out to be why!
Subscribed not to long ago. Was a ford dealer tech for 17 years. Left just before the ecoboost. Went heavyduty. I see issues with for ford are still nonstop lol. Great to see someone like Brian trying to help ford owners save some money. Reasons I don't own a ford today haha. Sure takes me back when I was slugging away in the Ford shop, trying to make 100% efficiency numbers or better.
Nice job Brian it’s all about experiance, you knew right away because of how much you’ve seen it. Surprised there’s no recall on this. Thanks for sharing
After watching theses videos I feel like a certified mechanic great videos keep them coming I wish you was in Muskegon,Mi
Brian i wish your shop was in Jersey. Another educational video. Thanks
Outstanding deduction!! My eye spotted it before you pointed it out, as well as how worn that follower was on the side. I can't imagine how much money this man has spent on this truck, now to have to pour another 3k into it making it right again. I hope his frame doesn't look like mine did, or the ones you've shown here on your channel. Fine job finding out that you were right, it is why I recommend you to everyone I know with an F150.
That is wild that it's always number 7! Great work and thanks!
Once again you show how important proper diagnosis is. I know the vehicle owner spent hundreds of dollars for nothing but in the end you will fix it and it will be just fine.
I enjoy the information that you show.
Thank you have a great day.
See 4 in the last year..... Brian thank you because of your videos, I have been Mr Captain save a truck... again thank you for your time
Hands down best mechanic I have ever seen
