Pull the distributor cap off and see if the rotor turns when you crank the engine. No turn = bad chain.

yes a worn cam can cause it but it sounds more like timing off about 5 to 10 degrees

Timing belt

Hello shaukathn: The factory recommended service interval to replace the timing belt. Is 90,000 miles or 144841.2 kilometers. This is a belt and not a chain driven engine. Please rate the reply as this lets us know you received the correct information. Thank You for using FixYa. Roger

98 Explorer timing chain?

If this is a SOHC 4.0 V6 then there is a recall on the tensioners for the timing chain, they cause the kind of noise you speak of, check with ford, this is the SOHC only.
