Pulled my engine today I started one day in October it was the first few days of cold weather this winter 2016 my engine started real rough and killed it's self within 30 second tried to start it again nothing had 130 psi compression on one side and 0 psi on the other side. So far what I've found from pulling the engine. I'm pulling pieces of my timing chain out wear the time chain bracket is. What was the deal with the plastic and aluminum timing chain? Also big heads up if you disconnecting the engine from the trans you can access the bolts thru where the starter was. Anyways I'm in a huge shit storm thanks ford. I own a 2001 Ford Explorer sport trac. It killed itself at 120,xxx miles. Anyone have any good engine suggestions, swaps, what Evers gonna be easiest I don't need more power or a v8 I just don't want my timeing chain and head gasket to shit on me at 120,xxx mile. Ps I bought my sport trac on Craigslist at 105,xxx for 4,000
