| Description of the problem | My 2004 ford f150 with 106,000 miles started to have an engine knock which we thought was just a stuck lifter. We took it in to the local ford dealership and was told that the timing guide broke and wrapped up in the engine causing it to be deprived of oil and now we will have to replace the engine. |
