Ranger cam synchronizer install




















Even if you see the oil light come on, you might not be able to safely pull over and shut the truck down in time to save the engine. If buying a DIS 3. After that, pull the syncro and check it at 50K miles and replace again every K miles. If your oil light comes on while driving, as soon as its safe to do so, put the truck in neutral, turn the ignition off, and coast to a stop.

These trucks that being Rangers in general, not just the 3. Your next step in this situation would be to verify either low oil pressure or a bad sending unit and take appropriate action. The CMP sensor is positioned next to the cam gear. As each cam gear tooth passes the sensor magnetic pick-up an AC voltage pulse is induced in the coil. The PCM counts the number of pulses to determine the camshaft speed.

The number of pulses counted in one second is the signal frequency. The Powertrain Control Module PCM uses the camshaft position sensor to manage sequential fuel injection and as part of misfire diagnosis. The PCM constantly monitors the number of pulses on the signal circuit. The PCM compares the number of camshaft sensor reference pulses and the number of crankshaft position sensor reference pulses received.

The camshaft position sensor signal is required to sequence the injector operation to the proper cylinder timing.

If the camshaft position sensor or circuit is faulty, most engines will start. However, the PCM misfire diagnostic will likely be affected. On the —94 2. Oil pump drive mounted Camshaft Position Sensor. There is usually but not always a squealing sound coming from the engine.

Generally from the rear of the engine. It may also be that your engine just quit and displayed no oil pressure. The camshaft syncronizer shaft has a gear that engages the camshaft.

The shaft wears out and starts squeeking. Non-Step Style — If you look inside the connector on the Camshaft Position Sensor; you are looking at the socket female side of a quick connect plug. For the non-step style plug socket, the hole is the same size in the front of the plug socket as it is at the back bottomed out in the socket hole end of the plug socket.

This means the tip of the plug male end of the quick connect from the vehicle will be the same size as the back end of the quick connect plug, no step down in size. Step Style — If you look inside the connector on the Camshaft Position Sensor; you are looking at the socket female side of a quick connect plug.

For the step style plug socket, the hole is large at the front of the socket, then about. This means that. The smaller socket dimension remains this size the rest of the way back bottomed out in the socket hole of the plug socket. Looking at the vehicle side of the quick connect plug, the tip of the plug steps down in size. There is a hold down bolt 3 in diagram below that holds it in place.

NOTE: If the camshaft position sensor housing does not contain a plastic locator cover tool, a special service tool such as T89PA, or equivalent, must be obtained prior to installation.

Failure to follow this procedure may result in improper stator alignment. This will result in the fuel system being out of time with the engine, possibly causing engine damage. By Forum Member mercuryseven here :. A nasty little device. I was throwing a P CaMshaft Position sensor fault and the truck was barely drivable, this is a Ranger Edge with a 3. I parked it and ordered up a Motorcraft synchro, got home at eight and finished about nine. This is what does it. As the bushings wear, the softer metal gear is allowed to float against the harder cam, wearing the rectangular gear teeth into more of a sharpened oval shape.

This dumps a bunch of metal in your engine and starts a snowball effect. Had this gear failed, the engine would have likely quit but not before it was starved of oil and seized. This refers to the connector type. All EDGE 3. Mark the position of the shaft vane onto the manifold with a grease pencil or marker.

Mark the body position. The hold down bolt is behind and slightly to the passengers side of the shaft centerline. Remove old one. Then drop nothing in that hole. Cover the new one in oil, from o-ring down. Lucas additive. If you have questions, feel free to PM the original poster or ask in the appropriate section of The Ranger Station.

This method is for installing a camshaft synchronizer into the back of the engine. Step 2. Step 4. The 1 cylinder is the one closest to the front passenger side. Step 5. Using the ruler, cut a piece of masking tape 34mm long, exactly. Step 6. Stick tape on the left side of the line on the crankshaft pulley and turn engine clockwise until the timing needle points at the end of the tape:.

Step 7. Insert cam synchronizer into its socket in the back of the engine, at a 90 degree angle to the back of the block, with the c shaped piece pointed open end towards the driver side and on the far left mark. Since the gear is helical, it will rotate as it goes into the engine and hopefully slips right into the oil pump.
