Hey guys,
As the title states my dad bought a 2010 F-150 with a 4.6 3V a month or so after he bought it the motor started making a noise. He stopped driving it immediately and we ordered a timing chain kit and phasers because he thought the phasers were the issue. Upon tearing the engine down this weekend he thinks the previous owner or the place he bought it had an oil pump go out because there is marring on the cams.
If anyone has more insight on the engine let me know. As it sits now he is thinking he will have to get a new motor, because if the cams are marred the bearings will be worse.
Thanks in advance,
Jason
