Engine timing chain is not timed?

The 2020 Ford F-150 with the 5.0L V8 engine is an interference engine so the timing chain procedure must be done correctly to avoid bending the valve. I would replace the guides and tensioners as well along with the camshaft actuators. These are all common replacement parts. Here is the correct way to replace the timing chains, guides and tensioners and camshaft actuators and the actuator chains as well. Check out the images (below). Let us know if you need anything else.

Most timing chain engines are interference engines. The best thing I can tell you is move the crankshaft by hand, the instructions show where the crankshaft should be while timing the engine. Remove all spark plugs so the engine turns easier. Do you see the timing mark at the front of the crankshaft?

I uploaded the instructions as they were presented so I believe it is correct. It can be iffy turning the engine by hand and there is no guarantee the valves will not get damaged so I would go slow.

Yep, all we can do is move forward to see what happens, please upload pictures or videos in your response of any problems so we can see what to help you with.

You got it, using a wrench is the best way.

Can you upload images of what you are talking about?
