Do we need special tools to install the timing chains on 2003 ford f150 4.6 engine
yes it is different than a 351 windsor but there are two different ones that it could be: 15426378 or 15263748
5000cc engine will fit .
Need to know what engine and year. Most engines before 1997 in a F150 do not have a timing belt, they have a chain.

advance your timing
sounds like a bad timing issue
