2002 ford explorer xlt 4.0 timing chain tensioner?
I'm thinking about replacing the timing chain front and right side tensioner it rattle doing cold start then when warm it goes away. I never worked with this type of vehicle and little worry about timing chain moving while I take the tensioner out. Any hint on how to remove this tensioner without going into bigger trouble.
Pull the motor out, you have to do both or you're just wasting your time and money.
- How much does it cost to get timing chain done? Recently we bought a car 08 ford crown victoria at a car auction. It had a blown head gasket and we had a friend fix it for us, he put it all together and now car won't start. He thinks he did the timing chain wrong. Was wondering how much it would cost to take it to an actual mechanic to redo the timing chain. Also he thinks one of the heads are bad so how much would that cost as well?

- Is 2600 dollars a fair price in ford for a broken rear timing chain cassette on a 2006 explorer? I took my explorer to ford and they diagnosed that the noice I been asking about is coming from a the rear timing chain cassette. So they have to pull the motor out and service the broken cassette. My problem is I'm getting charged 600 bucks for parts and I found in ford parts the timing chain kit is only 255.33 plus tax I know a couple of gaskets need to be put on but I have doubts that is 600 dollars worth in parts
