outstanding content baz your epiuc ive just bourght i 2015 focus ecoboost how easy is it to do the wet belt on this

Great video again. How much do you normally charge for doing these?

I used to do the old 2.4 YORK Diesel engine Timing Belts and it didn't involve 2 belts and taking the sump off .... So how are the Turkish Transits better than the British Transits?

Very good work. Apart from the introductory music.

Are both camshaft sprocket pressed on as I don’t see a bolt holding it on the middle

I'm thinking I was lucky getting my Transit Custom in 2015, no issues as yet but it's still super low miles.

Murder on the dance floor on repeat in the workshop just like us must be radio 1😂😂😂

GOOD JOB BAZ HOW DID YOU GET THAT PICTURE MATE OFF THE ENGINE SETTINGS ON THE LAUNCH TAB

The only engines I have ever owned with a cam drive design immersed in oil like that had a chain 😮 Obviously with good reason 😢

Transits being a pain since they replaced the "smiley face" .Dual mass flywheel,crap.Seizing glowplugs, wheel bearing assemblies rust up.

Just had one of these snap on a 70 reg Transit at work, only just over 80k miles. Currently at Ford getting a new engine :s

Allow a DIY to take 2 days, or a Professional Ford Trained Tech 6 hrs Bear in mind he has done it before and has all the specialist tools available, where as you will be bodging pullers together and struggling to remove the crankshaft Pully Bolt, which took me a length of scaffolding [2mtrs] and I'm no lightweight ! swinging on the end. Best of luck, but definitely not one for the feint hearted. By the way I did mine on a flat grass verge behind the barn in France and never had to renew the front timing cover plate as I eased it off a little at a time, I also reused the Crank Pully Bolt and refixed by adding some thread glue. Old school and not a believer in throwing good usable bolts, nuts aside to keep the Manufacturer in Business. Cast your eye over the thread, a keen eye will spot a knackered thread on a bolt or nut and forget that nonsense of metal fatigue, you are not racing a formula one car here. Mr Spence Eng

Hello! I have a Ford Transit 2.0 EcoBlue(130hp) from 2020 with 220.000km. I don t know if my timing belt was ever replaced but I supposed it was at least once since the car have this number of kilometres. My question is when is the next time I am supposed to change the timing belt or how can I find out the number of kilometres when my timing belt was changed in the past. Thank you.

Our manager won’t take on wet belts he turns them away all the time. It pisses me off to no end 😢.

Do you not get gaskets for the timing cover and oil sump?

Nope

If they had a timimg CHAIN istead of the "WET" belt, you wopuld not have to do this.

This looks a bit more simple than the eco boost lol

Makes a change to see one that hasn't filled the pickup with debris, Serviced correctly they aren't as bad as people make out.

No they're not. The reason they fail is the wrong engine oil, incorrect or no maintenance. There's a guy on Facebook that literally every single ford van ad he's in the comments bitching about wet belts and sharing a link to a petition about them. Absolute clown.

Hello lads I’ve a 2018 tipper with a wet belt. Only done 30k. But some places are recommending changing every 5 years regardless? What’s your thoughts?

@stuartcraigon2003

3 ай бұрын

@BottleBrookGardens the belt isn't the problem, the excessive fuel getting into the sump from the dpf is what causes the belt to fail. Fuel runs back through the system rather than being burnt in the exhaust. Once it mixes with the oil it attacks the rubber belt causing it to fail.

Waiting for Ford to come out with a dry chain...
