Will not start, Changed CAM phasers, timing chains, tensioners, guides, spark plugs

Be careful with over-tightening. They can strip easily (aluminum head and not too many threads).

For the coil to shoot out, I would think the spark plug came with it. Plus, it looks like the coil fell apart. Did you replace it yet?

You do nice work. Everything looks clean and ready to go! Many years ago, my first shop teacher always said, "Make it look like someone lives here." In other words, make it clean, organized, and neat. That's what I've always done, but most are not like that anymore. You, on the other hand, do nice work.

What are you afraid of? If you worry about something causing interference internally, simply turn the crank by hand several revolutions. If there is an interference, it will stop turning and won't go further. (Don't force it if that happens).

Ariana, just make sure not to cross-thread the spark plugs or overtighten it. I would replace that coil. It looks beyond repair.

Never be afraid. The worst case is it won't start, or you may hear a backfire. LOL If you do, stop and recheck the timing. If everything is aligned, it will start.

Take care of yourself, be confident, and don't worry. I know you took your time and it's right.

Let me know.

Ariana,

I had a feeling you had it correct. It looks like you take a lot of pride in your work. That is something that is fading. I hope you never change.

Great job! And remember, have confidence in yourself. You do good work.

Take care of yourself. I'll see you on the Explorer post when you are ready.

Joe

I will watch for your questions.

Take care,

Joe
