Here is her running with the valve cover off..... about 30 seconds into video - goes off fast idle and the slower engine speed makes the tap clearer.... Been tapping for about 12,000 miles..... Keith

Today - put the front Cam tower cover back on...then started up to check for oil at all lifters... all looked good and all lifters were pumped up.Ran her with the two lifters out on the rear cylinder....Lots of oil...So definitely not an oil restriction issue. Cut the bottom out of a gallon...

Popped the valve cover off...and then front cam cover where the oil feed and restrictor is....It does not have the pushed in tube restrictor with two holes....mine has a chamber with 2 sections - with a rectangular notch cut out... so this must be the restrictor.....anyway it looks clear....See...

On my 2002 4.6 - 141,000 miles I have a really harsh metallic tapping coming from the back of the engine..... at idle and fades as RPM increase.... seemed to come from the drivers side, rear top of engine.... I popped the valve cover off and had a bad timing chain ( had eaten thru the guide and...

Holy Crap - an 1/8” - it must have been almost ready to blow up.... I will check mine tomorrow....... I thought mine was loose at about 0.040” movement as a guess.... I think I will throw a dial gauge on it tomorrow and also price a rebuilt unit and a junkyard unit. Got about 154,000 miles on...

Curious - how much play was in the output shaft - mine is a bit loose........

Solved Pulled the DEATC unit out of the dash and unplugged it completely...... Then put fuse 30 back it..... It instantly blew.... so then I knew the $1,200 DEATC unit was okay.....that was what I was hoping for.... did not even know if you could get one of these units now.... Next on the...

Hi Guys: thanks for the info.... me and automatic transmission shudders seem to go along... Had a 94 Mustang, that was just shaking itself to pieces and it was a transmission shudder, it was hard to believe how hard that car shook..... I had to upgrade to the then BRAND NEW Mercon V to...

Had a transmission shudder at 40 MPH, 1,100 RPM (just in Overdrive), with just a very light throttle load.... She has 145,000 miles - so figured she needed some new transmission fluid, for anti shudder additives - so dropped off at the dealer - just got home...looked at invoice..... Says...

Then another weird thing.... when I turned the dial that adjusts the brightness of the climate control display, at one position it would cause an electronic buzzing under the dash..... very repeatable, turn the dial and it would stop, put it back to the same mid level brightness postion and it...

Driving home with the horn fuse out.....the climate control display started blinking in drive... would stop blinking if I hit the brake... and start blinking again when I let go of the brake.... seems like the car had some “Flakiness” electrical symptoms....maybe a ground.... ????? Why would the...
