Hello all, I have a quick question. I have a 2002 Mercury mountaineer
\nand I was just told that the timing chain is causing my truck to make a rattling noise and that it needs to be replaced.

Does it take an experienced mechanic to make this kind of repair or is it something I could do myself? Is is even worth it? Thanks!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
