NOTICE: During engine repair procedures, cleanliness is extremely important. Any foreign material, including any material created while cleaning gasket surfaces that enters the oil passages, coolant passages or the oil pan, may cause engine failure.

NOTE: Assembly of the engine requires various inspections/measurements of the engine components (engine block, crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons and piston rings). These inspections/measurements will aid in determining if the engine components will require replacement.

90. NOTE: The 2 VCT (Variable Camshaft Timing) oil control solenoids are removed for clarity.
Compress the LH secondary timing chain tensioner and remove the Secondary Chain Hold Down.

- Make sure the secondary timing chain is centered on the timing chain tensioner guides.

100. NOTICE: Do not use excessive force when installing the Variable Camshaft Timing (VCT) oil control solenoid. Damage to the mega cap could cause the cylinder head to be inoperable. If difficult to install the VCT (Variable Camshaft Timing) oil control solenoid, inspect the bore and VCT (Variable Camshaft Timing) oil control solenoid to ensure there are no burrs, sharp edges or contaminants present on the mating surface. Only clean the external surfaces as necessary.

NOTE: A slight twisting motion will aid in the installation of the VCT (Variable Camshaft Timing) oil control solenoid.

NOTE: Keep the VCT (Variable Camshaft Timing) oil control solenoid clean of dirt and debris.

Install the LH intake VCT (Variable Camshaft Timing) oil control solenoid and the bolt.

107. NOTICE: Failure to use Motorcraft(R) High Performance Engine RTV Silicone may cause the engine oil to foam excessively and result in serious engine damage.

NOTE: The engine front cover and bolts 1, 2, 7, 8, 16, 17, 18, 19, 20 and 21 must be installed within 4 minutes of the initial sealant application. The remainder of the engine front cover bolts and the engine mount bracket bolts must be installed and tightened within 35 minutes of the initial sealant application. If the time limits are exceeded, the sealant must be removed, the sealing area cleaned and sealant reapplied. To clean the sealing area, use silicone gasket remover and metal surface prep. Failure to follow this procedure can cause future oil leakage.
