The amount off 300 tdi engines that have overnight timing belts in the world when they don't need to be prob premature wear on them I've had a few in and there was 0 movement in the belt great vid Mike donny

Hi Mike really informative thank you, one question though is this the same procedure for the 200 TDI engines as well ? Keep up the great work my friend

Similar - depends on if it is a Defender or Discovery - the timing pins are the same

I’m soon to be having a new belt on a 300 tdi.. should I be taking it steady for a while or just drive it normally straight away?…

Hi Mike! Amazing job,looks brand new. look, what if some not so trusted mechanic did the Timing of the diesel pump on the second slot of the flywheel. would it be possible? We have a 300tdi that since it came from this mechanic has all kinds of problems, sounds very rough, does not have power no matter how much smoke it makes, and if you road it, it gets hot. Please tell me what you think! You're the best! 🫡

It would not start on the second notch I would have thought - 90 degrees out - sounds like the belt is off a tooth

Mike, when you had the engine locked at TDC and pin locked in IP, your camshaft timing marks didn't appear in line? Chasing a 300tdi issue that has good low down power but is dead above around 2600rpm. Possible camshaft timing?
@BritannicaRestorations2 ай бұрын
If the cam timing is out you will probably have the pistons hitting the valves

There are 2 styles of 300 Tdi timing cover, one has a shoulder in it and should be fitted from the inside - the other is parallel Usually no problem fitting

Thanks Mike, this is straight through and only the back has a surface to use as a datum to press against. did you do a video about that seal? @@BritannicaRestorations
