How to set a timing in a 2005 ford focus

Timing chain or belt? Almost all timing gears have a dot that face each other when the timing marks are lined up. If you are not carful you can damage the valves while rotating the crank and came to the lined up position. However in a perfect world the top gear can be removed when it is lined up, and reinstalled with the chain or belt in place, it will be tight but you should not need to force it. good luck

I need help to set the timing on 1999 ford expedition 5.4l.

If it's valve timing you are referring to, follow these steps.

Orient the crank sprocket with the mark at the six o'clock position. Fold both chains in half, with the two copper links on one end, and the single copper link on the other end. (If there are no marks visible, you can make your own using paint, or other suitable marker that won't rub off)

Install the timing chain guides. Begin by setting up passenger side bank cam, with the single copper link lined up with the mark on the crank sprocket at the six o'clock position, on the INNER gear (the one closest to the engine). While holding the cam with vise grips, route the chain with the two copper links lining it up to the mark on the cam sprocket (sprocket should be at around the 11 o'clock position). Install the right side timing chain tensioner, and torque to two 10mm bolts to spec.

Repeat above outlined procedure for the driver side bank cam (sprocket on this bank should be at around the one o'clock position).

Focus timing belt replacement.

This is a very very easy timing belt setup. first off you have to remove the valve cover. Then you have to remove the serp belt. Then remove anything thats in your way of the front cover. after you remove the crank pulley re-install the crank bolt. DO NOT LOSEN THE BOLT FOR THE TENSIONER!!!! now spin the crankshaft until the sproket aligns with the timing mark. now at this point the two camshafts should be aligned. now there is a special tool from ford that holds the cam shafts in place. all it is is a 1/4" peice of metal that goes on the left side of the cam shafts to hold them into place. if you mark the cams you wont need the tool. or if you can find something to fit in the left side of the cams that will work too. anyways after that its just the same steps in reverse. very easy to do.

Sounds like a timing problem. You can buy a chiltons manual for the car and it will give you step by step procedure to check timing and set it if it is off.
