Items 1-3: Rocker Arm Removal Note
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2004 Mercury Monterey and 2004 Ford Freestar. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
- If the rocker arms are to be reused, they must be installed in their original location. Mark the rocker arms for location before removing.
- If removing valve springs, rotate the crankshaft until the piston is at the top of its stroke with both the intake and exhaust valves closed prior to removing the rocker arm.
