Very good vedio. Just did the entire job after watching your vedio. Thank you for all the tips. I took my heads with exhaust attached. I held the long bolts halfway up with shop towels. I did all the work in two days on 2005 Ford E350 V10. Did not have to remove anything. All work done through doghouse. The car runs great with exception of cutting out at stop light. Not sure why but i have to figure that out. No codes. Runs like champ
Hey Papani that's awesome! I've never pulled heads on an E-series van before. Cutting out at stop light? Does it feel like a misfire? Double check ignition coil connections. Do you have a scan tool that can read live engine data?
@@ValleyMobileAutomotive You dont know how much i appreciate your vedio. It motivated me to do the job. I really didnt want to do it at first, but when i saw your vedios, i said hell ya... I think the cut off has to do with coolant circulation??? There are no codes/all monitors ready/no misfires. Not sure why ill keep digging
He brother your videos have been a help to me as I own a 2v v10 currently rebuilding and my question is what head bolts did u use? With washer on all them. Cannot find with washers even threw ford with washers only larger head on the bolt there calling a washer. Aluminum heads I’m not comfortable with out a loose wahser. Thanks for your reply
Hello all your removal and installation videos for this truck are awesome. I’m doing the heads this week on my truck. Quick question, do you recommend cleaning the piston heads before installing the new cylinder heads? Or they can be left as is? Didn’t know if it was recommended to clean the carbon out of the top of pistons before or not…
Yeah, take advantage of having those heads off. Especially if the carbon build up is creating a "crust" on the piston. Just be careful not to scratch the cylinder walls or the block surface where the head mates. They make a softer bristle for that that attaches to a drill or angle grinder. Then vacuum out any carbon debris that may be caught between the edge of the piston and the cylinder wall 👍. These piston heads looked surprisingly good, so I didn't see a need on this truck.
So can the cab stay on do the head gaskets? We are maybe looking at doing the bulletproofing where you put the studs in instead of the trash ford bolts
I have a question the timing chain guide that one bolt that goes through the oil pump what is the length of that Bolton where can I find it Ford dealership didn't have it and I lost it
Ah man that's a bummer 😕. If you haven't already I would pull out a different oil pump bolt and see if it fits. If it does then take that with you when looking for a new one. I believe the pump bolt diameters are the same. If the length isn't long enough you can at least match up the thread pitch and diameter and know what you're looking for (auto parts stores have a section for matching thread pitch and diameter). Then get bolts of different lengths that you think may fit. Good luck

Aren’t the head bolts tighten to yield? Which means they need to be replaced? Great video, helps a lot.
Thanks. You're absolutely right, it's crucial to replace the head bolts 👍
@@ValleyMobileAutomotive ugh another $100

Yes, cab can stay on. The passenger side is a little tight, the corner head bolt comes out with the head.
When u send the head out to the machine shop I noticed u never removed the cam from the cylinder head
The machine shop I take it to will clean and inspect everything even the cam and caps.
Arent they supossed to go 30 + 90, then turn back one full turn, then redo 30+90+90?
