F 150 Heritage 4WD Pickup V6-4.2L VIN 2 (2004)
1. CAUTION:
-
Do not turn the crankshaft or camshaft during the removal and installation procedure or the fuel system timing will be out of time
with the engine and possibly cause engine damage.
-
A synchronizer alignment gauge must be used during the installation of the replacement synchronizer assembly. Failure to follow this
procedure will result in the fuel system being out of time with the engine, possibly causing engine damage.
Install the special tool on the camshaft synchronizer by rotating the tool until it engages the notch in the camshaft synchronizer housing.
2. NOTE:
-
Always coat the synchronizer drive gear with clean engine oil prior to installation.
-
During installation, the arrow on the synchronizer alignment tool will rotate clockwise as the gears engage.
Install the camshaft synchronizer housing assembly so the arrow on the synchronizer alignment gauge is 54 degrees from the centerline of the
engine.
3. Install the camshaft synchronizer bolt.
