So I had to finally pull the trigger and do the timing chain and phasers on my PIU. Kept getting the P0016 and it would come and go but decided dig in and do the replacement.
Read the other threads about the job and was ready for a fun time. So far I have the motor torn down to the point where I have removed the timing cover. This is a pretty involved but if you take it slow it is very manageable. I have a Haynes manual and there are a few discrepancies in the procedures like you don’t have to remove the alternator. I didn't need to move the ac lines any. Remember to depressurize the fuel rail. The most tedious part for me was unclipping all the connectors and getting the valve covers off.
I have my cam holding tools coming tomorrow I have to get the TP55 Torx plus socket then I can work on getting the phasers off. I ordered my timing kit off Rock Auto. I got the Cloyes 90783SB kit, new vvt actuators, motorcraft water pump, Mahle gaskets, Dayco harmonic balancer. Going to get the phasers from ford tho. I’ll try to post some pics if I can figure out a hosting site.
