That is called a balance shaft.
There is a chain driven balance shaft on the 4.0 L SOHC engine for the 4X4 Ford Explorers / Rangers
It has an interference engine. The cam belt must be changed at 90,000 miles. The VTEC engine also has a balance shaft belt that also must be changed. Non-VTEC engine does not have the balance shaft belt.
Its in there all right Runs from the crank shaft and operates camshaft and balance shaft
I wouldn't think so, not on them.
It turns the balance shaft. The balance shaft helps reduce vibration in the motor. It is usually driven by a belt that is connected from the balance shaft to the crank shaft and a tention adjusting wheel used to apply tension to the belt. Hope this helps, Dirk.
Most likely a broken balance shaft belt
It is located behind the timing belt.
Yes it does have a balance shaft also known as a silent shaft.
Depending on the engine, some have a timing belt and a balance shaft belt.
The crank shaft sensor is located on front of block above the harmonic balance wheel (bottom pulley on front of engine). This is easiest to get at from underneath the vehicle.
