Good looking out about multiple length bolts. I used the gaskets to trace the bolt pattern onto cardboard then put the bolts into the cardboard as they came out. My memory is shot so these are the things I need to do😮💨 Great video, gonna help me with my 73 Mustang, pretty much the same setup.
I just got done doing this procedure, tearing down is the hardest part, saved all my brown shopping bags, to bag up parts that are coming off with the nuts an bolts, itemize and number in order they came out or off not one bolt was left over, take your time if something aren't going right you're doing something wrong, stop and take a break, think about it why is this part giving me a hard time, believe me you'll figure it out
I’d take the time and replace the other two gaskets on the water pump and the front crankshaft seal. That will keep you from having to remove it later. Plus the lower radiator hose looked soft. FYI: The other mark you can look at on the lower gear is the crankshaft key way. It will always be aligned to the mark on the gear.
Thank you for this video. Helps a lot. One quick question: what happen when the chain is so loose and the two points are not aligned? What pole should I adjust? What would be the procedure? Thank you!
Woulda been nice to see the timing chain actually come off! Are there additional bolts or just the one? Was it super easy to just slide off? Do you need a puller? etc...
Hi. I just bought a double roller for mine but the two piece fuel pump eccentric is now too tight and the outer ring isn't free. Am I ok to fit a spacer behind it?
Do you know if the upper bolt holes on the alternator bracket are for a factory air conditioning pump or if it’s another location to mount the alternator? My 1976 has the same bracket and I’ve always wondered what those empty holes for for!
I’m working on a 1994 mustang gt 5.0 302 engine as well and the dots on the timing chain are off so do I just keep rotating it until the dots meet up at 0 degrees top dead center ?
@@NashvilleEarlyBronco no sir, its a long hex nut looking thing. My 302 has it too. It is attached to the timing cover on the driver's side. It's maybe 4in in length.
Hi Jon. I have a question (a basic one) and i hope you can help me. How do you close the tailgate ? My 1975 Bronco haven't a latch and only has it in the back window. I wonder if in the past, maybe, the tailgate closed thanks to the wheel carrier... How do you close your Bronco's back door? Did you put a latch there? Thank you
I got to do this to my 89 f150 w a 5.0. I just replaced the water pump last week and put everything back together now have to take everything of again 😭
I have a '95 Mustang....I ordered mine from BoltDepot.com....very fast shipping if you are on the east coast...I ordered Stainless Steel - 5/16-18 in various lengths....I am 100% sure my bolt lengths are different than yours...You just need to find out what the lengths are OR order a bunch of studs, nuts and washers....
Hello, nice video. I think it was 2003 and I didn't use the internet or TH-cam for help. My question is, I did a timing chain kit replacement on a 1986 Ford Bronco. I didn't know anything about marks that needed to be aligned. I just unbolted and took off and did the reverse to put back together. My Bronco started right up and ran fine for about 9 months until I traded it in for a new Ford F-150. Do you really need to align the marks? I did this with my Chevy Aveo, marks were aligned, but I destroyed my engine when it came time to start. What gives?

Nice work! I re did my water pump/ chain on my 2000 Explorer last winter. Amazing how little changed with these engines over the years.
Seriously. Makes it easy to work on

Good info
Hi great video but how did you seal the bottom of the timing case to the sump?
That worn timing chain was an early version of variable valve timing.
Haha!
Thank you for this video. Helps a lot.
One quick question: what happen when the chain is so loose and the two points are not aligned? What pole should I adjust? What would be the procedure? Thank you!
If it’s too loose you’ll have timing issues
Do you remember if yours had an crankshaft oil slinger between the lower sprocket and the timing cover? Mine's also a '75 302.
Woulda been nice to see the timing chain actually come off! Are there additional bolts or just the one? Was it super easy to just slide off? Do you need a puller? etc...
Yes, this was the whole reason I watched this video.
Hi. I just bought a double roller for mine but the two piece fuel pump eccentric is now too tight and the outer ring isn't free. Am I ok to fit a spacer behind it?
Did you line up the dots by rotating harmonic balancer to TDC?
Yes
Hi mate! Which Fitech injection fuel system fit to Ford 351 V8 engine?
Do you know if the upper bolt holes on the alternator bracket are for a factory air conditioning pump or if it’s another location to mount the alternator? My 1976 has the same bracket and I’ve always wondered what those empty holes for for!
Did you used any Rtv on gasket?
You could have taken off the fuel pump eccentric cam that thing on the timing sprocket that's like off center that's only for mechanical fuel pumps
Good to know!
Yes your right!
"Maze of bolts" lol I know exactly what you mean😂
😂 right!?
I’m working on a 1994 mustang gt 5.0 302 engine as well and the dots on the timing chain are off so do I just keep rotating it until the dots meet up at 0 degrees top dead center ?
hey john,you didn't replace your timing cover did you?If they aren't leaking you can reuse them right?
I didn’t replace it, just cleaned it up really good
@@NashvilleEarlyBronco Thank you,how do you like the hydroboost from toms?Did you notice a difference between that and the vacuum boost?
@speedwayman100 love it! Huge difference from vacuum boost. It stops like a modern car
@@speedwayman100 Love the hydroboost. The Bronco stops like a modern car (without ABS).
@@NashvilleEarlyBroncoThank you man,i think you have 35 " tires,going that size what did you have to change? I'm debating 33 or 35's.
What is the black canister connected to the silver machined long nut coming off the timing chain area?
I think you’re talking about the oil filter
@@NashvilleEarlyBronco no sir, its a long hex nut looking thing. My 302 has it too. It is attached to the timing cover on the driver's side. It's maybe 4in in length.
I wonder why my 84 302 has only one 7/16 on each side and only one 1/2 on each side and urs is diff?
Can you help me with a 1995 bronco. Not firing???
What brand timing set did you use ?
Hi Jon. I have a question (a basic one) and i hope you can help me.
How do you close the tailgate ? My 1975 Bronco haven't a latch and only has it in the back window. I wonder if in the past, maybe, the tailgate closed thanks to the wheel carrier...
How do you close your Bronco's back door? Did you put a latch there?
Thank you
Strange, so your tailgate doesn’t have a latch? Is it just always shut?
it has the original handle and I can open and close it, but it hasn't a lock where you can put a key in there and secure the door
Mine is the same way. Only the top has the lock.
Ok Jon, thank you for your time.
I got to do this to my 89 f150 w a 5.0. I just replaced the water pump last week and put everything back together now have to take everything of again 😭
Nice!!
Hey Nash, I am doing my timing chain/water pump and following your video.
I need to replace all the bolts. Do you have a source for these?
Oh man! No sources... good luck! That’s a good project
I have a '95 Mustang....I ordered mine from BoltDepot.com....very fast shipping if you are on the east coast...I ordered Stainless Steel - 5/16-18 in various lengths....I am 100% sure my bolt lengths are different than yours...You just need to find out what the lengths are OR order a bunch of studs, nuts and washers....
soooo you can remove the old harmonic balancer and water pump and all without taking the engine out of the truck, good

great...except you skipped straight over the only thing iam looking for :(
Timing chain removal...you undid the bolt then ...it was off???
How come no one ever shows how to get 1 off...
Got a buddy in 5 points with a classic baby blue bronco. You didn’t sell that doggie to Whitman did you?
Not that I remember
When do we get to see if it runs?!? LOL!!
Soon!!!
Good video. Too bad you own a knockoff international scout.
Haha!
Damn dude to much freaking talk
