- 2002 Explorer
I have a 2002 Explorer with 4.0L V6 with 79000 miles. Last year I started to hear a bearing kind of sound only when I accelerate hard passed 2500 rpms when I drive coming from the right passenger's side front of the engine. As soon as I let off it goes away. I have power braked it and accelerated, I have accelerated with it in park, and I can not repeat the sound.
My question is, If this were a timing chain issue would I hear it all the time no matter how I accelerate. Or could this be something totally different?
I would appreciate any help that you guys can give.
Or if someone can explain what a bad timing chain sounds like.
