04 Lariat5.4 4x4 Screw. So,I have to remove the entire tensioner to change the belt? Changing tranny filter too.60,000,not going to touch the plugs,the tool I bought at auto zone for the fuel filter didnt fit,no matter what I tried,the raised portion does not fit into the fitting to collapse the prongs. WTF ? Fuel filter doent have 15000 on it yet anyway.

 

Welcome!!
Be ready to enter your Credit card number allot once you see the world of ideas that are here on F150Online!

No reason you should have to remove the tensioner just to change the belt.
Pull back the idler and you'll be able to get it off.

Trans fluid change a good idea BTW...
Mine blew at just under 60K luckly was under warranty!

There's a thread somewhere on here about how to change fuel filter very good one with pics.

 

Credit card ,HA ! Who has money now,not me. Anyway,pulled off the tranny pan cleaned it up,where does the little yellow plunger go? It was layin in the bottom.

 

The yellow plunger is t be thrown away. It is just a plug that seals things up during assembly, it pops out and lays in the bottom of the pan until the first service.

 

Thanks Sooner. So,that means the po never changed it huh? Dork.
