5.4L 3V 2004-2010 Ford OEM Cam Phaser, Timing Chain, Upgraded Oil Pump, and VCT Solenoid Replacement Kit
Product Review (submitted on September 17, 2023):
All the parts arrived new and in good condition. Unfortunately my camshaft caps were a little more worn then expected. Lots of varnish and sludge deposits on engine but went ahead with timing job anyways.
The results where good with cold engine and 5w30 oil, once it warmed up the oil pressure got to low even with new oil pump and cam phasers would not engage pin at idle after a load was applied to engine, power was low when driving as well.
I just inspected roller followers and lifters when i had them out for inspection, all seem good so i didnt replace them with updated roller followers which may of helped oil pressure. I also removed oil pan and cleaned pick up tube and screen when doing the timing.
So I removed 1 quart of engine oil and added 1 quart of lucas oil stabilizer. Now it runs great with no more annoying check engine lights and diesel sound at idle, and power is back when cruising down the highway. It may not be the best idea but worked for me. Now to see how long it lasts like this.
Also, remember to check crankshaft endplay before ordering parts. I checked it as an afterthought, but got lucky.
