Front 60k parts and tools

[goalieman59]

Ok guys my wife wants me to give her the total price of parts. What parts do I need to buy and tools do i need to make sure I have? Also I have a whine coming from the front side, what should I have on had to replace bearings or anything else that can cause a whine?

Frt 100K Parts = WP, CPS, Frt Main Seal, Cam Sensor, Cam Seals, TimeingBelt, Acc Belt, extra idler pullys.
Whine could be coming from many things! Diagnose first!

long screw driver to your ear placed in SAFE locations.
remove acc belt & start car & listen.

As long as you don't run it long enough to get it hot. If you don't hear the whine w/ the belt off then you know it is a belt driven part that is making the noise. Most likely the P/S pump (all Ford P/S pumps make noise) or maybe the a/c compressor or alternator. Before putting the belt back on, turn each pulley by hand to feel for friction or binding.

I've got some 3.2 parts that are new in a box at home. Idler pulleys, timing tensioner, timing belt idler pulleys, etc. Let me know if you're interested.

I'd get the other 2 cam seals while your in there... if you open it and they are leaking at all, you'll kick your self...

Is this the front main seal? and what is the other one? or am totally lost?

the front main seal is the front crank seal. there are two seals on the front of the motor for the camshafts also.

I am actually buying parts to do the front 60k on my now also. On rock auto, you can get everything but the Water Pump and Crankshaft Pos. Sensor for about $85 shipped. The water pump and cps you can get at RCM for $60 each. These prices are for the 3L mtx front 60k not including tools (Steering wheel puller, awl, o ring pick) So i'm assuming it will be a little less for you because there is only 1 belt.

Louder when the engine runs faster, or when you have your foot on the throttle more?

 

[rubydist]

Neither the ps pump nor the belts/idlers should care how much you are on the throttle. It almost sounds like you have a little intake leak or something like that....

 

[zblackbeast]

does it do it when you are moving or in park? Does having it in drive make it louder?

I got 10 bucks on it that the whine is the timing belt tensoiner starting to wear out mine is doing that now and I have one on the way and wines when u rev up the car

 

[AREA 91]

My guess is the timing belt tensioner, or idler pulley.

Does anyone know what a place like auto zone calls the front main seal.

Crankshaft seal Timkin P# KWK99351

i think this is it. $60 bucks though... at least for a 95 3.2L

i could be totally wrong.

Look up the crankshaft seal kit. Its way less then the crank seal by itself and includes gaskets that can be changed while your tearing into it. Also shop around online at all the partstores. I had a list of parts for each store and saved money by price matching and driving to different stores. Like the CPS sensor. I think autozone wanted $80 and I got the same part for around $21 with lifetime warranty at another at another store. Dont order online at some of those places. You end up spending more for the same part plus shipping. If you find it online cheaper just print out the page and take it to the parts store to get it priced match.


Timing cover seal kit is 14.99 and includes the crank seal

Do you happen to have the part number for all the items you needed?
