      In my experience, training people to do something is often less satisfying than doing that same work myself. The exception is when the students are bright and eager, but they are often in the minority. They are also more likely to be like Brian -- they figure things out for themselves without needing someone else to train them. What is needed is to clone him.

      Which is worse, having to reduce the size of service departments, or the whole dealerships shutting down because only totally clueless people buy their vehicles -- and eventually you run out of them? Toyota seems to be doing OK following the teachings of J. Edwards Deming.
      It seems that Ford management (and others) have forgotten the lessons of the 1970s and 80s and are repeating their mistakes from that era. (Read Detroit Free Press reporting on internal memos about the Fiesta and Focus DCT fiasco for a flashback to the corporate culture that thought it was OK to have a even few people burned to death in their Pintos since the numbers worked out OK for the company.)

      @@donbarkman9802 leaking oil? Try and see if you can trace where it's coming from. I had a cold start rattle for about a year, I knew eventually the chain would go. One day I got check engine light P0016 code, cam shaft position sensor, no other symptons. I continued driving, then 3 weeks later one morning it coughed up black smoke and wouldn't idle, stuttered at low rmps and sometimes died. At that time I knew it must have jumped a tooth so I parked it and started ordering parts. You definitely want to do the job before catastrophic failure. I am afraid I have bent valves from running it with the timing off even though I only went around the block. I found a piece of the main tensioner in the oil pan, that is what failed.

      I just worked on a Toyota. A 94 Camry and IT WAS HELLISH! Way over-designed. Felt like I was wrenching on a tow truck. Did both LCA’s, one ball joint and a CV axle. Took 2 days. Hope I never touch one ever again.

    I intend to have my water pump, phasers, chain, guides and oil pump changed just for the sake of preventative maintenance on my 2010 Lincoln MKS 3.5L Eco. Always happy to hear about better parts that can be placed in place of existing parts to assist with longevity of my car. I'll keep this in mind for when the day comes. Be nice if there existed a better water pump as well that could last 200k+ miles. I'd feel like I could own the car forever it did.

    Putting this up for anyone that may be doing this job and installing this pump .
    This pump barely comes out when doing the timing job . The issue is that the oil pump pickup tube hits the bottom of the pan before its clear of the register in the pump and does not give you the required room to wiggle the pump out easily . Anyone thats replaced any of these type pumps knows that getting it lined up to get on the crank can be tricky so when you ad the clearance issues its pretty much impossible to get this back on as is without using some force. On the 5.4 you can simply rotate the pump clockwise to clear the tube and slide it right out. On this engine however there is a raised area inside the cover that prevents this. I take a die grinder with an aluminum bit and grind just a touch off the drivers side of the pump housing near the bolt hole and that allows the pump to rotate enough to clear the pickup tube and slide on easy without using force. I know how it sounds but there is PLENTY of meat there and it doesnt negatively affect the pumps function at all.
    If you are in contact with melling Brian you need to get them to change the casting just slightly to remedy this issue.

    The audio is amazing! I felt like he was in the room. I literally took my headphones off to check. And they're nothing special. As for the HV oil pump, that's great news for the previous gen EB owners. I bought a 2019 F-150 this year with the EB 3.5 while trading in my 2012 5.0 with 54k miles. I feel like I probably should have kept the 5.0 hearing about all this "wear" of engine parts. But at least I have twice the fuel injection . . . right? If it doesn't work, add more stuff to fix it! Keep adding until the engine compartment is full. Then issue a new design.

      @Zach,
      Exactly what I was thinking when I saw the thumbnail for this video.
      In thinking it through I realized that it would probably be just as expensive, or even more, to do the upgrade as to repair the stock pump before it destroys the engine. What is really needed is for Ford to come up with a more reliable and maintainable design next time, but I'm not holding my breath.

    I bought a 09 Flex with a standard 3.5L non boost. Since I bought this truck used in 2012 , I've been running Royal Purple oil in it. I pulled the Throttle body off and clean it every 2 years or so. I've had zero issues with this engine. When I look down into the valve covers the upper drivetrain is super clean. Any thoughts on this oil? I know what people say about it not being worth it, however it's given me no reason not to use it.
    In my 72 Mustang I have a 429cid big block and only use 20/50 Quaker state oil to keep the oil pressure up. I definitely believe in using the right oil for the right purpose.
    I use to work for Ford dealership many years ago. You videos are absolutely great, if I have a reason to replace the oil pump I know what to get now !

    Hate to bug you on this but this is the perfect time for me. Currently having a short block built by Livernois. It’s killing me because it’s the first time I’ve let somebody else build an engine for me . I’m building a house right now and already sold mine so I’m stuck in an apartment for a few months and it just seemed to make sense. Anyway, I haven’t pulled mine completely apart yet but I think my oil pump is what failed on my 2013 3.5 f150. It still runs, just randomly through cam over retarded codes, solenoid codes, etc. then I noticed once hot, holding the engine under load at a light (once the DTC was set and it disabled vtc) it would cause it to idle slightly lower (around 5-600rpm) and at 550 or so, I’d get a low oil pressure warning. Swapped the switch and solenoids just for shiggles, screens full of metal, oil had metal in it. Stopped driving it. Anyway, I ordered their billet gear’d oil pump with the short block. Any reason to cancel that and go high volume instead? I guess I’m not seeing the benefits if we’re not starving for oil already or getting cavitation. Now Livernois does modify some oil ports for flow and I’m wondering if their gears are setup for higher volume (although I don’t know how that would be possible with just gears). What’s your take? I come from the Honda/nissan world mostly and this truck was my intro back into domestics. I needed it to pull my drift car around but still wanted to be able to tune something and have some fun. Now, I’m 20k into a build and going long travel, wide body, etc etc and want to make sure this engine is as right as I can get it. Sold the drift cars and this is my only toy now but will also be the weekend daily. Stick with my Livernois billet gear pump or go to this?

Interesting note - my chain with 160k miles was identical in length to the new one I put in. I guess that means I'm using good oil? My phasers were having issues though and started that cold start rattle noise. I put the new upgraded ones in.

    So my 14 supercrew limited has only had Amsoil signature series and it has 300000 kilometers of oilfield use meaning lots of idle time and hard work. Internally everything is still stock and no phaser or codes for anything related to timing or chain issues. I just had bd manifolds, garret stage 1 turbos and turbo adapters, new cats and all piping from magnaflow. I also have the Amsoil remote bypass oil filter kit and the truck still pulls hard. Just did a 600km round trip in the mountains of British Columbia and truck says I did 14.5al/100kms.
