dropped valve?

[luisn612]

sorry to hear about that man. did u ever fix the problem. we have a Focus with the SOHC and it dropped a valve. had to rebuild the motor.

[guusmutsaers]

maybe a trip to the dealer will solve the problem...

[Noleafunburned]

i seem to have solved your problem this car may have been american? just taking a look at what is covering you bay..oh yea..american

[deadslickcam]

my girlfreinds is making the same sound i crawled under it and it sounds like number 3 rod to me i pull the valve cover 2 and it didnt get any louder.....

fuc-us's i swear!!!

[bassbone1785]

Thats bottom end noise, AKA connecting rods.

[chadarall420]

pull the head same thing happend to my focus its not the value its the value seating and tring to start it like thats goin to tare the engine up trust me

[MegaXcookiemonsterX]

maby you should check if the streeing wheel is on backwards?

[FPGT24]

@MegaXcookiemonsterX lmfao

[amyath]

@MegaXcookiemonsterX  It let you post this with incorrect spelling ?

[wafrederick]

Broken valve seat and a well known problem with the sohc 2.0 engine vin p

[steven90yau]

maybe 5000rpm isn't enough why don;t you try 6000rpm :)

[riced81]

I tried revving it up to 5000 rpms after I drained the oil and it didn't stop it just made it worse! I don't think that was a good idea!

[wafrederick]

I see it is the sohc cam engine,hardest one to find and $1,200.00 if you find an used engine.Worn out at 120,000 miles,the rings get washed out and known for valve seats dropping out.Nothing but a pos engine.

[StreetSurfinn]

that car needs a new car my friend

[scoob316]

Lifters have given up lad!

[sweetlikeADAM]

Valve clearance.

[mustang50dominates]

definately something in the valve train

[TheSharky666]

the valve its blow !

need a new 1

[kingdriftgr]

i have the same problem on a civic hatchback 93' but this sound does it make after 3.500rpm...i think it's one of the valves ..or the v-tech.......

[KLONIME1001]

@kingdriftgr i think its civic..

[kingdriftgr]

@kingdriftgr actualy i found the problem on ..it's not valve....u need a new engine ;)

[kita534]

@kingdriftgr mine also had the same problem 93 lx 4 door but it had a hole in one of the valves

[kingdriftgr]

@kita534 i just changed the engine berings and i saved my engine....most of him

[bculwell]

The valve seats fall out of the heads on the Ford CVH/SPI engines. That's what it is.

[naggerkiller]

way to spray oil everywhere

[mgospeed31]

@naggerkiller rustproofing

[naggerkiller]

@mgospeed31 haha i guess man, but one would think paint might be a better option for that.

[UberWagen]

no joke. pulled the head off a contour with this engine at work yesterday. Had a made in china head on it. Camshaft was broken in half.

[xToyotaSucks01x]

@UberWagen The Contour never had the 2.0L SPI engine, dumbass. That's the Zetec engine you are talking about. Completely different motor!

[mtnman1984]

sounds like a big end failure. new engine, please.

[bALLjUICE100]

ure suppose to rev it to 5000 rpm for 6 mins with no oil and all that will stop i promise

[david197407]

@bALLjUICE100 you idiot that will blow the engine up!

[bALLjUICE100]

@david197407 noooooooo ........ would it really -.-

[david197407]

@bALLjUICE100 well possibly could as engines dont like high rpm for long periods, especialy under light load

[amyath]

@david197407 I believe that's the intention.

[TheHomeDjs]

IDIOT!

[HunterCO1]

Typical 2.0 ford motor it dropped #4 cylinder intake valve seat every god damn one of those does it. Its always #4 cylinder and always the intake seat.

[krzysiekwarchal]

you guys have any idea what this could be. My focus makes the same noise. and where can i find parts?

[mustangrules]

stick your finger in there n se what happends lol

[scoob316]

thats for sure knackerd lifters, common problem on those CVH engines! certainly not a dropped valve it would sound waaay worse if it ran at all!

[HunterCO1]

@uyesu You just made a fucking ass of yourself read my reply to the video moron and it seems its you that is a internet wanna be tech. I cant even begin to tell you how many of those motors I have repaired because they dropped #4 intake valve seat.

[uyesu]

@HunterCO1 whoa. name-calling is fucken cool. you take it like a slap in the face, and I like that.

[HunterCO1]

@uyesu yep jackass its you who started it! Whats the matter don't like being shown what a fucking moron you are?

[uyesu]

@HunterCO1 OK Einstein(?) you addressed me first. heh. ^review^

y'all come on back. we'll enjoy the next few moments together....for wholly contrary reasons.

[HunterCO1]

@uyesu dipshit you adressed everyone first and mad a fucking idiot of yourself and I simply showed what a complete moron you are and the fact you have no idea WTF your talking about. You made the dumbass remark of "do you know what it takes to drop a seat" I simply showed that you have no fucking idea what it takes as it happens all the time with those motors jackass. ...............class is over!!!

[uyesu]

@HunterCO1 jesus hahah! 20 minutes goddamn. longer than I thought. how many threads are you babysitting this absolutely fine new years day?

[HunterCO1]

@uyesu yeah hah ahahaha is right you fucking moron when you don't know what the fuck your talking about keep your fucking pile hole shut or I will shove it up your ass!!!

[uyesu]

@HunterCO1 I'd say that you're a real tough cookie. if you were. but you're a slave to arrogance, and arrogance insists you take another swing....and miss again.

and slaves are weak.

clearly you didn't get enough titty time. heh.

[HunterCO1]

@uyesu I would simply say your a moron and you just proved that yet again!!

[DlSCONNECTED]

From what I understand these engine lack valve train lubrication because oil passage ways are small. Get a new car.

[llorban]

Did you ever figure out or fix the problem? My focus makes the exact same rattle

[greenjeansmjr]

By the way, you can tell everyone you've got a Hemi! It is a Hemi head on those CVH motors!

Another vote for a dropped valve seat...any updates?

[Tomorrow5O]

Sounds great.

[lvnlwd]

go to c.h.i. on ebay they have a reman head for 275 with better valve seats i rebuilt my wifes motor for like 700 bucks runs like a champ. pistons from junkyard be sure to get all four as i found there is different ones "rings are diff" new rings and rob bearings water pump and timing belt .be sure to get all metal out of everything

[PUREAAMERICAN]

Dropped valve seat, you can quickly confirm by pulling the spark plugs and you will see physical damage, and you will have low compression on one cylinder.

[lvnlwd]

its a dropped valve seat!! your piston and head are being beat to shit. i have been to alot of junk yards looking for a head and they all dropped valves

[MilanM85]

i'd say that the timing is off in this case... sounds coordinated which dropped valve doesn't do...

[nickernosher]

unlikley to be a dropped valve, sounds like a small end or similar, but who knows huh, drop the oil check for filings if you have dropped and exhaust valve youl hear a distinct blow out of the exhaust each compression stoke of that cylinder, if intake youl get a blowback out of you intake manifold, its easy drop oil check the others in that order, or if your lazy, compression test that engine,

[chrisanthony14]

same deal my car has..you dropped a valve seat but..junk or or replace the engine...

[TREPACITO]

I got the same car with the same noise i hate it and i dont know what to do..

[thingk89]

Do the DOHC 2.0 motors have this problem or any others????

[blargblarghonk]

Dropped valve Cylinder #4 the 2.0l and 1.9l's are known for dropped valves on cylinder 4.

[gstop2003]

yes sir droped valve

[kaptaincocopuff98]

i had the same exact noise on my 89 mustang gt. but the only problem was the timing was way off. so check that out.

[WARD5KUSTOMZ]

thats valves. my VW made same noise

[Blickhead12]

i cant tell you from the vid, could be a bented rod, but you never know

[Abercrombiespanker]

change that air filter man

[oneslow50]

Dropped valve seat on the #4 cylinder. I'm positive of it.

[magicmaker15]

I agree, dropped valve, happenes to a lot of these motors ( Ford 2.0 sohc in the focus). Happened to mine, connecting rod failed immediately after and dropped onto my driveway. I replaced it with a used engine from a junk yard.

[youngstah619]

Yes, dropped valve for sure. the valve sittings came out really bad on these cars.
