When replacing the Ford timing chain, it is important to clean the engine thoroughly and maintain vigilance to prevent the introduction of foreign materials. Common symptoms of a timing chain issue include chain slack, causing the chain to slap against the plastic guides, which can lead to broken guide pieces ending up in the oil pan. Timing chain tensioners can also experience issues, as the seal can break and cause a loss of oil pressure, leading to increased noise and further damage to the guides and gears.
