Tip: remove the VCT solenoid once the cover is loose and before you try to wiggle it out. Reinstall the VCT only once you got the cover back into place roughly. The VCT sticks up high.
The heater hoses are blocking the way, how did you pull the valve cover out? The video clip for this critical step was edited out. How did you put the new valve cover in? This is the most difficult step, and the video clip was also edited out.

I'm getting ready to do change the timing setup on my 5.4 3v. No issues, YET. 194k, I just figure it's time to get ahead of any issues. But its very intimidating !
I really enjoyed this video as im going to sub. Will be another go to if he has anymore 5.4 3v vids. Fordtechmakuloco has a 4Video Series on Timing Chain. I watched it the other night for the fun of it. The depth on his videos is awesome. I see TRQ going up in subs with this video. I Yet to watch any others.
So you skip taking the VCT valve out how are we supposed to know about that if you don't show it to us? You are the teacher, you are leaving out important steps that we need to know, we wouldn't be here if it was easy
This is video is not a true tutorial. He skipped the most important part which is the "PROCESS" of removing and replacing the valve cover and removing the VCT oil control solenoid located inside the cover. This is not a simple 11 minute job. If doing it yourself you'll easy spend 3+ hours with the proper tools and 5+ without proper tools. I don't wish this install on anyone
BEWARE. This video leaves out critical parts of removal and replacement of the cover!! Read through the comments before attempting. Now that I am into this job, I'm a frustrated with how much info that was left out. I'm not sure I'll be able to get the cover back in, especially trying to keep the gasket in place. Very difficult!
DO YOURSELF A FAVOR and remove the passenger front tire before you do this. You can get to all the bottom bolts easy that way. Especially that one on the fire wall bottom. Your welcome..

Just wiggle this around to get it out he says. What a pain to remove
By far the best valve cover change video full of helpful tips, with very well done narration.

completely skip the hardest part: removing the cover and putting it back in. Not super helpful.

Change the oil before running engine? How will any debRis in the head get to the oil pan?
List of tools needed? Thanks.
What size socket you need to remove the valve cover
Is the RTV cured enough to crank immediately or should you wait the full 24hr cure time?
Thanks I broke my vapor line and didn't know what it was inorder to get a new one. I had to replace the
VVT valves and was trying to remove it.

At 2 minutes and 28 seconds what did you unclip. Thank you
It was a little grey clip
Probably a knock sensor
Whyd you skip the weaseling? That's literally the part everyone struggles with
That's what I wanted to see also. Having a hard time getting the cover back in
