NOTE: Do not loosen or remove the crankshaft pulley bolt without first installing the special tools as instructed in this procedure. The crankshaft pulley and the crankshaft timing sprocket are not keyed to the crankshaft. The crankshaft, the crankshaft sprocket and the pulley are fitted together by friction, using diamond washers between the flange faces on each part. For that reason, the crankshaft sprocket is also unfastened if the pulley bolt is loosened. Before any repair requiring loosening or removal of the crankshaft pulley bolt, the crankshaft and camshafts must be locked in place by the special service tools or severe engine damage can occur.
NOTE: Early build vehicle (built before July 6, 2009) cooling systems are filled with Motorcraft® Premium Gold Engine Coolant. Late build vehicle (built on or after July 6, 2009) cooling systems are filled with Motorcraft® Specialty Green Engine Coolant. Mixing coolant types degrades the corrosion protection of the coolant. Do not mix coolant types. Failure to follow these instructions may result in engine or cooling system damage.
NOTE: During engine repair procedures, cleanliness is extremely important. All parts must be thoroughly cleaned and any foreign material, including any material created while cleaning gasket surfaces, that enters the oil passages, coolant passages or the oil pan, can cause engine failure.
NOTE: Assembly of the engine requires various inspections/measurements of the engine components (engine block, crankshaft, connecting rods, pistons and piston rings). These inspections/measurements will aid in determining if the engine components will require replacement. For additional information, refer to GENERAL PROCEDURES .
  1. Install the 4 oil squirters.
    • Tighten to 4 Nm (35 lb-in).
    NOTE: If the oil squirters are being reused, they must be installed in the same location as marked during disassembly.
    NOTE: The front bulkhead does not have an oil squirter.

  30. Install the Crankshaft TDC  Timing Peg.
    NOTE: The Crankshaft TDC  Timing Peg will contact the crankshaft and prevent it from turning past TDC  . However, the crankshaft can still be rotated in the counterclockwise direction. The crankshaft must remain at the TDC  position until the timing drive components and crankshaft pulley are installed.

  36. Clean and inspect all mating surfaces.
    NOTE: Do not use metal scrapers, wire brushes, power abrasive discs or other abrasive means to clean the sealing surfaces. These tools cause scratches and gouges, which make leak paths. Use a plastic scraping tool and metal surface cleaner to remove traces of sealant.
  37. Apply a 2.5 mm (0.09 in) bead of silicone gasket and sealant to the oil pan.
    NOTE: If the oil pan is not secured within 4 minutes of sealant application, the sealant must be removed and the sealing area cleaned with metal surface prep.
