- 2005 Ford Explorer XLT
I'm trying to figure out if this sound is the timing chain in my 2005 Ford Explorer XLT 4.0 4x4. I don't know if it's on the video but you can hear at idle the engine shivers a little, its not really rattling but it is idling differently than it should be. In the video you can hear what sounds like slinking of something that you can start hearing when you rev the engine past 1k, and it speeds up with the engine, I think it sounds like the timing chain loosely spinning around the timing gears because a tensioner or guide broke but i don't know. The answer will determine whether I keep or sell the car so. Please help!
