Who knows how much it would cost to replace all 3 timing chains in a SOHC 4.0? I want to do some safty work on it to make sure it doesnt crap out on me since i bought it with 125,000 miles on it. Since it is a interference engine and it has such high compression, i dont want to damage the valves, cams or pistons. so a few hunderde wont kill me. and i would like any other ideas on things to look into doing to keep this motor running for good. im running synthetic blend right now, and am going to go fully synthetic this spring, K&N air filter. going to change fuel filter and get a tune up. any other ideas?
