Anyone who has the mental capacity to do this kind of work could easily go into another industry. They will make more, won't have to take out a mortgage for tools, and won't destroy their body in the process. So from what I see everyone is going to enjoy the shortage of skilled mechanics for the foreseeable future.

I then told him bring it by. I popped the valve cover and seen a roller popped off, sadly the cam didn't survive. All this knowledge is because of this awesome channel. Thank you bryan.

Well I have a Ford F150 that has been looked at by the so called good mechanics around here they have no idea.. One said co2 censor and I was thinking catalytic converter... Well when slowing down from 60 or so to a complete stop it starts to how do you explain it... Ummm almost like the timing is off but also a loud rattling.. Shut the engine off and start it back up and it's fine would love to fix this problem have you ever heard of this before... Hopefully the intake roller follower could be my ticket...

Great video! Thank you for such a detailed video!! We sell the coils for these trucks. Very occasionally we have a customer with a Ford Triton engine that has a misfire that no shop can diagnose. I will be forwarding your videos to customers who need in depth information on misfires!

I've come upon this same situation about 3 times. Have also seen it on cylinder 3. Replaced cam, timing set and roller rockers. Just had another 07 three valve come in 3 days ago. Looks at cam error pids and seen the common right bank that always goes out at -14. Inspected with bore scope into oil fill and found the common right chain guide gone due to blown gasket on tensioner. Timing set definitely needed. Removed the easier left cover and found the left guide broken. The engine was oil starved for many seasons. Everything was nasty under the valve cover. My recommendation was getting a remanufactured engine. Great video for those people that don't understand Fords. Thanks

Great job! This is similar to the issue I had with my Expedition, couldn't deal with trial & error from various Repair Shops so I had to sell it.

Brian, my 2005 F-150 had misfire codes also. My scan tool was just a basic Actron. Nothing like what you have. I replaced plugs and coil packs and it didn't help. this truck had 201800, miles on it. So I took it to the Ford Dealer and asked them to hook it up to there computer and check it out. This truck's engine had oil changes every 3000 miles, give or take 500 miles or so. They said I needed a new engine! I believed them so ten thousand dollars later and four weeks I was back on the road. After watching most of your ford videos' I believe the problem was roller followers! I'll never believe a dealer again. You are the Man! You've also helped me do other repairs on this truck. Next week I'll be replacing a rear ABS sensor, fuel pump module, and oil change on rear pumpkin. Please keep up the Great videos I watch them all the time.

Just caught this video and gotta say I'm impressed and humbled at the knowledge you professional technicians process and how willingly you share with us. I've been chasing lean codes and misfires on my 00 excursion with the 6.8. A little history on the vehicle, low miles only 60k but it was ran without a catalytic converter for unknown amount of time. The cat was stolen and previous owner never replaced. I purchased the vehicle and installed the new catalytic converter. So far I've also installed refurbished oe injectors, purge valve, vent valve, pcv valve, maf sensor, Motorcraft coils and sparkplugs and changed several deteriorated hoses, fuel and air filters. About the only thing I haven't changed are my oxygen sensors. Any insight or route you can guide me towards... any assistance is greatly appreciated. Also almost forgot to mention the vehicle smokes heavily usually when cold and exhaust smells a bit rich of gas. Thank you sir again, any Input is greatly appreciated.
