Re: Ford f150 engine problem
I have tried what u you suggested with the bottom end of the motor unbolted all 8 pistons from the crank then and removed all five of the main bearing caps and send them back in and moved the crankshaft down a little bit and still cannot turn the engine even remote driveshafts thinking that might cause it
Re: Ford f150 engine problem
I don't understand "remote driveshafts" are you saying remove crank shaft?
OK, lets start back a little ways. Is the engine in or out of the vehicle? And the heads are off the engine correct? When you say the engine wont turn, you mean you are trying to turn the crank by hand with the heads still off the engine.
you have unbolted the connecting rods that attach the pistons to the crank and none of the pistons seem frozen in the bore. (they can move) but the crank still won't move?
Is the truck an automatic or manual trans? If it is automatic, unbolt the flex plate and see if the flex plate can turn. If the engine is out of the vehicle then you don't have to worry about this. If it's manual trans, it is in neutral right?
Just trying to think of all the options here.
