Why Ford did not stay with the earlier egg shaped opening in the valve cover, so you could change the VCTs without pulling the valve cover, is criminal.
Did your engine tick at low rpm acceleration?? That’s what I’m trying to diagnose right now. At less than 2000rpm while accelerating I hear a tick, beyond that the tick goes away.
Sorry to get back with you so late, the ticking is probably a stretched or loose timing chain probably from blown gasket on chain tensioners and or broken chain guides, I had to do the whole timing job eventually. Can be done yourself for around $1200 with oem parts and oil pump upgrade and only a couple specialty tools. Way cheaper than having it done at a shop. Good luck. Look up channel- ford tech make you loco

I always search 2010 videos or 5.4L because nothing exists for the 2008. Thanks for the video.
Boy that pass side valve cover is the tough one we need a video on
I got a 2010 expedition exact same problem
What kind of valve seal is that. Did u have to replace it to? Do u have the part number on seal?
You didn’t show us how to replace it

Same as early year f150
I have a 2010 Expedition, I think I have to take off the valve cover too.. this sucks 😡
This fix the rough idle?
Yes it did fix rough idle, I do recommend using Ford OEM parts for this
Can't Find Fixes about how long did the job take? Trying to figure out a time frame to set aside for my fix!
