If you set the crank at about 12-14 deg from top dead center, you hit a spot in the cam where no valves are under spring pressure (or are all under equal pressure, and when you release the cam pulleys, they wont spin on you, and you don't lose alignment with the crank. Little tips from hard lessons learned.

Question(s) for you - I gather you used the compressed air because you cant crank the engine (manually) to get the valves up , yes? Does the air hold them all up or did you move the air line? Second - have you seen the Lisle 36200 Valve Keeper Remover and Installer tool ? Wonder if it works on a mustang...watched on a Honda and it was awesome....put this in the youtube search box "replace valve stem seals - with cylinder head on" and tell me what you think...would save folks ALOT of time
@speedacademy
@speedacademy 6 жыл бұрын
Correct, the compressed air is one of the best ways to ensure you dont drop a valve into the motor. It pressures the cylinder and holds the vales up. Never seen that tool in action on a Mustang, it could work but we've always trusted the compressed air method.

Not bringing the engine to TDC will not reveal how worn the chain and sprockets are. When I replaced the all the timing hardware I found I had to move the driver side cam about 5* to bring it back to TDC when all the new parts were installed . This out of time cam shows up when comparing O2 sensor readings. Everything else was a 100% on my 4.6 and ran fine but the O2 sensor reading were out of whack (comparing cyl banks). Couldn't find an explanation swapping sensors of course confirmed it was not sensors. It was after changing all the timing hardware due to a bad tensioner and I happened to look at the O2 sensor data afterward that I discovered that the readings were now normal.
@mlhebel
@mlhebel 6 жыл бұрын
Use an ARP bolt on the sprocket (phaser) one time use bolt won't have to be replaced if it ever has to be disassembles again. I also remove the fuel pump relay and crank the engine till I see oil PSI when ever I have opened up the oil system. That was a scary sound but the prelube probably saved it from damage.
