New guy in town just want to start out with a big howdy to everyone on this forum i am looking forward to get to know all of you or at lest some of you . I know a little about forums and how they work so heres my question.
I have a 2004 f-150 with a 5.4 and when i start it up cold it sound like a diesel untill it gets warmed up than it sounds normal i have been told that it could be the timing chain or the cma phaser. How do i tell which one it is . I had planned on putting in the timing chain this weekend untill someone said something about the cam phaser now im not sure what i should do. I dont have money to waste so i want to make sure whats wrong before i dive in im sure you all understand were im coming from so any help would be awesome. Thanks Jay
