General Procedures: Sprockets

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Lincoln Navigator and 2002 Ford Expedition. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
    WARNING: To avoid the possibility of personal injury or damage to the vehicle, do not operate the engine with the hood open until the fan blade has been examined for possible cracks and separation.
    NOTE: Specifications show the expected minimum or maximum condition. For the procedure, refer to GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for Expedition or GENERAL SPECIFICATIONS for Navigator.
    NOTE: If a component fails to meet the specifications, it is necessary to install a new component or refinish. If the component can be refinished, wear limits are provided as an aid to making a decision. A new component must be installed for any component that fails to meet specifications and cannot be refinished.
