I have same engine I had to change my head gasket on both sides I put may timing but car not running good as was before I think I mis my timing are those timing tool supposed bring exactly on time my is 2.7l ecoboost
Thanks for the video. You demonstrate great skills and knowledge. You replaced the Cam Phasers with the same original part numbers. I don't know the exact timing of this video but the 2021 part number was supposedly improved to address the root cause of the failures. The new part numbers are ML3Z-6256-A and ML3Z-6C525-A. Thinking if this is true then your video should be updated? Could be valuable for DIY's and people taking their trucks to shops to be aware of. Sorry if I am mistaken.
The procedure is exactly the same, just newer design phasers, marks and everything are all the same, this was made before the updated design came out, thank you!
Hi can i move the crankshaft alone against clockwise while the chain off to put it on the 4 o’clock position for ford explorer 2019 ? Actually need about 180° turn against clockwise to reach to its point Can I Thank you so much
Quick question im currently tackling this job and it turns out three of the four phasers went bad and they wont really lock in place. I got the timing marks lined up just like in the video but my problem is that my cam locking tools wont fit in between the cams any suggestions on how to lock the cams in place???
Okay now by having the timing marks in place and moving the camshafts to get the locking tool in place once i have tool in place with the cams locked than the engine should be timed correctly and i could start removing the chains and everything else correct?
Great video What do you do in case when driver side is not in line to insert locking/timing tool it’s off by couple millimeters. But tool doesn’t clear to lock in? Thanks
you can rotate the phasers a little bit, and just tap the tool with a rubber mallet. it won’t hurt anything cause most of those tools are aluminum and the cams are steel i think
Nice video. I just had this done yesterday to my 2018 at 44K miles. I couldn't believe it took the dealership only a day. You mechanics have some mad skills (and patients) and this certainly isn't a driveway job.
@@TheBigghunter01 Doubt your truck would list to me. My repair was done under recall and the work performed at the dealership. If I had to do it in my driveway it never would have gotten done...LOL

Don't replace the chain and use a wedge at the tensioner so the chain does not move. Mark your chain and take the phasers out and put back on , no messing with the chain. Also use the updated phasers. Using this style again, you will be back in it later for the same problems.
Hello we have a ford 3.5 eco boost with cold start rattle. We changed the old phasers for the new updated ones, now there is not any noise but we get the P0017 failure. What can we do?
Unfortunately that means the timing was not done properly, marks aren't in the correct position on bank 1 (passenger side). Going to have to take it back apart and re time the engine making sure the timing chain links are exactly where they're supposed to be, with no slack/loose spots.
Great video!!! Maybe they weren’t out yet, but why are you not using the new design phasers? All this hard work just to do it all again later. The old design is guaranteed to fail, just a matter of time.
My 2019 3.5 just began rattling today at 88k miles. How long can something drive with bad phasers before it gets too bad or causes more extensive damage
There's really no time limit, I've seen some just keep on driving even though they rattle for 5+ seconds on a cold start, you can crank the vehicle with the gas pedal all the way to the floor to "prime" the phasers on a cold start to kind of prolong the inevitable, I know it's a very expensive repair
In the middle of this and I am at the point of putting ac belt on. As I turn motor over by crank bolt to get the ac belt on I'm seeing the right bank come in and out of tension slightly as I rotate the engine is this normal?
This video is RU-vid gold. Especially for mechanics that haven't done this job and just needed a walk though. Thank you for this video. The Vice grip trick worked perfectly. I'm starting reassembly tomorrow.
@@twoserve2449 if it is a higher mileage vehicle, then yes I would. Problem is the last few months one or the other valve cover gasket has been on backorder
Sir, good afternoon. Hope this comment finds you well. Which crowbar are you using to take out the Christmas Trees? I got a set of pliers and they ain’t cutting it. Much thanks in advance for your attention to this and have a great day!!
Please set up a payment link. I want to donate some money as an appreciation for this 3.5 ecoboost content. I just purchased 19 Expedition Limited on insurance auction, and sure enough there is a rattle on cold start😟 Before I had 2007 Expedition with exact same issue(( I got stuck on a road-trip with my family (holiday weekend). I had to fly my family back home, rent a hotel for a 3 days, as there was no mechanic available to replace the sprockets as well as waiting on parts. In addition the job cost me $3200. I would assume that 12 years is enough to fix the sprocket issue for such grand automotive company company or take responsibility and release a recall! I would use this 2019 Expedition for a couple of years, but Ford NO MORE just because the way they treat their customers! Lexus or possibly Grand Wagoner would me my next choice)
Awesome video. I have a 2017 with this problem. With your explanation I could probably do this myself if I had the time. I’m having the dealership take care of it. They told me it might take 4 days. How long does it take you to preform this repair?
I’m about to do this on mine and was going to just plan on replacing that sensor. Doesn’t look like oil or crank sensor, did you ever find out what it was?
I just had my phasers replaced on my 2019 3.5 they started rattling at 9k miles. I only have 12k on the truck. There was a 2 to 3 month waiting list. It’s unbelievable to me how complicated engines have gotten since the 60s. I remember replacing the cam on my 327. It was a cinch compared now. When I saw what was behind the front cover on your video I just had to shake my head. I like the way your video is put together. You make it easy to follow along. Even though it’s by no means an easy job.I
@@southern842 no never got an answer... looks like too many problems with f150 products... the 10 speed trans is also a nightmare if you do a quick search on youtube
Sucks 30000 miles later you have to redo it do to those old style phasers the new update with cover over springs seems to be better. But ford has plenty of issues with that junk.
