FORD EXPLORER 4.0 ENGINE REPLACEMENT PART 1
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 5 окт 2024
- In today's video we begin the process of removing and replacing the engine in my wife's 2008 Ford Explorer 4.0 sohc. In the previous video we found the timing chain had jumped timing due to a broken plastic guide and worn tensioner. After giving it plenty of thought, I decided it would be easier to just replace the entire engine assembly with a used motor. Follow along and join me in this adventure. Thanks for watching!

Eric another real world repair and video. Nice to see everyone doesn’t live in a perfect world. Thank you for sharing hope everyone is well and looking forward to part 3. Good luck with your home purchase. Hope you bought one with a big garage. Thanks again 👍❤️
You are one of a few RUclipsrs I have on notification and I support by allowing adds to play till the end, no skipping or add block. Good job mate
Sincerely, thank you for your support!
Amen brother, ANY kind of music being played TOO loud and TOO late is annoying.
Exactly!
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO to me, ICU2 don't like Mexican music, corridos jajajajaj
The hose clamp tool is the bomb .
Yes it is!
I am just a diy guy... never seen hose clamp pliers like that before. nice!
You're a hard worker and deserve the best for you and your family...My prayers are with you.
I feel your pain, I just finished swapping out the engine in my truck. Had to borrow an engine lift and also was primarily on my own. Wife helped as much as she could but it's still a job no matter what.
You make changing engines looking easy :)
I enjoy your commentary. Thanks for sharing your videos. You are in the same boat as a lot of us - short on time, don't want to spend money, fixing a pile in the driveway.
BONUS!! TOOL TREASURE 👍
I LOVE IT WHEN THIS HAPPENS
JOB WELL DONE 😁
Awesome video. I'm white and I thought the music was a nice touch lol. Figured YOU were playing it. Love it bro.
ERIC, WHAT EVER YOU SHOWING IT IS A JOY TO WATCH AND DO NOT MIND THAT MEXICAN MUSIC IT MAKE ME DANCE AND FELL HAPPY. CHEEEEEERS
Thank you
It’s a shame you have to do that job in the first place plastic chain tensioners? Do you have very many miles on the truck ? Failures like that are why I drive Toyotas now ,Great video great information good luck on your new house Can’t wait for part two
Yeah I like Toyota they use plastic stuff but it's really strong plastic you actually can't break it Even there's seat trim
UNBELIEVABLE! So if you needed to replace just the radiator you would have to recover the A/C in order to do so? So much for a simple inexpensive at home job... Now that's what I like, 0 thumbs down... (hope I didn't jinx it). Job well done! Thanks Eric.
I love this guy. A hard working normal family guy...
Congrats on the home purchase!
Looking forward to the rest of this video series.
Dino Vicaro
Thank you
it never rains but it pours for you, all the hard jobs, cars that everyone else doesnt want to do, now the worst engine in the world
I wish I knew it was the worst engine before I bought it. Thanks for watching!
@@ADVANCEDLEVELAUTO is that the infamous 5.3 that loves to snap chain's
@@neilmurphy845 It's a 4.0
No need to apologize for the background music. I couldn’t really hear it on my iPad, and even if I could hear it, so what. You’re working at home under less than ideal conditions trying to fix your wife’s car. More power to you👍.
Thank you
Muy buen video Eric. Los vecinos y la musica, en todos los lugares es igual !!!. Aca en el barrio suele pasar. Saludos.
Sounds like your neighbor already had the drinks going based on the music in the background. lol
10:46 - 11:45; soo many opportunities to dump the random "That's what she said" phrase...
“Sometimes you just gotta do it by hand” That’s what she said lol
Reasons why I love my 96 4.0 ohv
This exactly the type of video I was waiting for. Thanks Eric. I really miss that TexMex music.
Thank you! Gotta love Tejano music.
The condenser can be removed from the radiator , so you can remove the radiator and leave the condenser in the truck . Can be done without discharging the system . 💯 %
I’ve got the same truck with the same general problem. Slipped chain with bad tensioner. Been sitting for a year. I know I could fix this but decided to sell as I have a Tundra. I was close to getting a new engine as well. Good luck. I actually remember seeing on on car-part.com in Texas with 85k on it.
Love the music. It ads to the ambiance. Nice video:
Hey eric thumbs up even before seeing The video
Congratulations on your new home purchase!
Smart move parts on these engines will exceed price of used unit and like you said doesn’t include all your time repairing.
Hey I like that music,, it is better than Rap music..
Country music which gets on your tits eventually
Rap music nowadays is mostly about drugs, money, hoes and killing. Mexican music is mostly love songs.
Better do a good job. You have a tough customer to please. Lol😂🇨🇦 stay safe
Had one in my shop a few years ago...rear chain guide shit the bed...it managed to break the valve cover on the right bank...we decided to install a used engine..3 rotten valved used motors later I ended up selling the customer into a reman unit in a crate. Bit of a job but damn, what a stupid F'n design!
To me, Ford screwed the pooch with this engine. Should have kept the pushrod design.....
I have a 96 loaded one with/ohv. More reliable than the flames of hell. Pushing 200K. Needed valve cover gaskets, took me 2 hrs. The 4 spd trans in 96 is a bit more reliable too.
Congrats on the house.
Damn Ford gotta make everything hard on this Expedition. This is the reason I stick with Toyota. I never had issues like this in the last 200k miles
you gotta get a battery operated ratchet.1/4 and 3/8......i cant live without em now...
Same with my sport trac but, I said screw it. Im replacing it w/crate engine. $3000 , $600 core & free shipping. Fix'n the other is around $1200 in GOOD parts etc. Worth the money to swap instead of spending longer w/original engine.
Invitales unas chelas a los neighbors pa que te ayuden jajajaja
Big job. The engine will be out in no time 💪
Drain cock sounds weird. Thanks for sharing Eric.
Helpful! Keep it up!👍👍👍
Hello I have a 2004 Explorer 4.0l 2wd. I will be changing the timing chains. I was wondering if there is a way to know if my Explorer has a balance shaft?
Thanks.
Looks like Ford does not want you to fix that engine. Way too many steps to get that out of the car. A dealership may have some shortcuts after doing it many times, but you would still have a huge labor bill.
That damn Radiator... I have an '06 and I've swapped mind out 3 times. Damn cheap plastic tanks.
man wish i was there to help you bro.
Thank you! It means a lot.
thanks for sharing
Hey erick que hay después de 4 meses de ausencia ya estoy de regreso hey bendiciones mi amigo 🙏
How long does it take you to pull this engine?
I just lost my 90° pick into a truck that's long and gone by now
Will a 4.6 l bolt in , instead of the 4.0 l
Do they take request?
I need help I got a 96 Chevy tahoe the windows won't go down and the ac controls dont work and the radio lights up but doesn't work
Good
You just broke even on this repair finding that Snap-On gold on the rad tank.
Yeah that's screw driver was totally worth thousands in repair bills 😵
Good job
Thanks
please stay safe all.............
Cool😎
You gotta be in San Antonio
Close. Houston.
I know you don’t have a lot of time to work on it, but please, please put a rt hand (the rear) timing cassette guide and tensioner on the new engine. It gives the new engine the best chance for such a pain in the ass engine.
That’s probably a good idea.
You gotta work it. Get the radiator out. How else are you gonna get the harmonic balancer off. Not in this video. I wanna see you do a harmonic balancer off this kind of vehicle. Lol!
Cuanto me van a cobrar por hacer ese trabajo?? Me ayudas porfavor
Waiting on part 2 !!! ?????
I apologize. I will be posting very soon. I’ve been busy with the move and work. Thank you for your continued support!
I would never buy a used sohc v6. I drive a 96 with a 4.0 OHV. My next will be an 09-10 with a V8. The transmissions on those suck too.
👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍
Why Ford engineers design the timing chain in the back of the engine and also combining the radiator and condenser. its such a stupid design?
They basically used an existing design and converted it from belt, then found didn't have room to drive both cams of the v-6 with 1 chain so used back chain to drive the other cam
Yeah what a city design there's no need to have two chains every single car even the German ones and we all know how complicated they are have one chain
Ford should have left the engine pushrod
Hello,please provide me link for buying suv 1996 ford explorer v6 engine*right hand:post here,thanks friends.
Car-part.com .... list of junk yards and recycling yards in your area.
Yo compre una ford explorer y tiene. Un ruido igual🤦♂️
Fuckin mini me needs to be doin this bro where’s the helper lol
I wish I had one lol
ADVANCED LEVEL AUTO you got craigslist, visit your local parole office plenty of fish there.. no joke I took two dopers in the shop and there men bro.. it’s all in how you are I am a little rough on my helpers so naturally left me with this group but the under dog has the most determination
People double dip collect corona bucks an work
Why u don't by toyota
Vulgar language is always my first go to tactic.😬
It helps sometimes.
Tell me about it, up here in the Rust Belt (North) you have to use F..... bombs, sh......t bombs and WTF bombs before those Rusty crap bolts, clamps etc. will come loose. It's a daily thing when working on cars up North in the rust belt, I feel your frustration with those lines, 😀😀😀😀😀. Keep up the Great work.
I hear Mexican music in the background
Yes sir!
Jesus, it's a 4.0 liter exploder... it's worth about 7.99 on the open market, get a better car and chalk this experience up to experience.
Mines at 198,000 miles and aside from basic repairs/maintenance, I’ve never had any major problems. Just do basic preventative care and repair things as they go out (which is not frequently), and you’ll have no problems with this vehicle. Still looks and runs the same as the first day I bought her. Never understood the hate for Explorers by some people.
Dude I love your videos I watch every single one of them but I think you should cut down on your talking your talking just a little too much I think you should just get straight to the point.
I’m working on it. Still trying to get better at making these videos. Thanks for the input.
I like all of his talking. Can't explain something too much as long as you don't repeat yourself
Read about what JESUS did this is mine blowing. Can you believe this, did you ever hear of this about HIM
Romans 10:5/10, c u there
$$🧐👌,u
I do not like the design of that vehicle it’s about as unfriendly to work on as anything I’ve ever seen. Light it on fire
You would have more time if you didn't talk do much.
Who the F@#$ designs this S&%@,Thats right ma'am your radiator replacement will be $1563 and 49 cents
could you please stand still- making me dizzy
