[QUOTE="Mickey Luis, post: 1014724, member: 67962"] Other than the wrong info regarding "4.0L SOHC is not an interference engine," I think it's a very good informative article. While reading the "comments" regarding the article, I came upon the following comment. "By the way, I have a 2005 Ranger 4.0L 4x4 with 107K. It developed mis-fire issues a month ago that were finally diagnosed as a sticking exhaust valve on #3 cylinder. According to a local machine shop, 4.0L engines are notorious for this problem, the worst being cylinders 3 and 2 (right bank)." I have never heard of this problem with the heads and sticking valves on the first bank (1,2,3). Anyone have any info on this whether this is valid or false info. The reason I ask is because I have a '03 4.0 with a skip I'm chasing. I'm not trying to steal this tread, thanks. [/QUOTE]
