Allen What a job to replace a hose you would not think you would get a air leak from that hose to affect the running of the engine revs then get rid of the oil fumes I think you must service the complete unit all the seals and hoses same tine save revisiting it a other time has it is such a pain of a job to do but good video mate I would imagine a none mechanic would find d it hard to trace that leak their selves and take it to a for a big bill knowing this could save owners a let of money well done mate for sharing this Phil in stoke

Just got a 99 Focus 1.8 16V Zetec, was told it was mechanically sound!! Well this hose you speak of was collapsed; causing the valve to cease up and all the new lower seals to blow out... I have replaced the hose with a silicone one and applied a new valve. The beast runs much better now, only got the oil pan and RTV to replace and it should be good for now!

👍 Hi, there are special pliers with cable extensions for these spring clips. You also need them when you work on the hidden cooling water hoses. There are a total of 8 bolts on the intake manifold. By the way, mine now has 340tkm with LPG and is still running well. If something is wrong with the PCV (there is a small spring behind the ball), the MAP sensor can be damaged and negatively affect the fuel mixture and emissions.

I like to take a thermos mug of hot water from the kettle to pour on stuck hoses. Helped alot whne I was working on the clutch master on my mk3 last winter. Was still a pig but the hoses have me no grief.

all duratec engines had the same problems no matters titanium or funarium. after several failure this short rubber s..t i produce my own from soldered few pieces copper pipes and elbow, and use just coolant pipes (proper diameter) to connect manifold with engine,problem solved forever I think. I driving with this 15 years now🤗

I still run a 2L Duratec. Now 17 years old and done 79,000. I hope I do not have to do that job. Glad to see others using them. I wonder what mileage yours had covered? My ticks over below 1000 about 850. You are a genius the way you approach jobs in such a neat and effective way. Lucky folk that live near your garage.

Thanks for the tip for how to remove fans easyer... 8:22 yeah its clued (@bottom of the clip) by factory for easy install and allso that clip is hold of by cap until install... 12:04 personaly break cleaner or lock oil. Lock oil/ gun oil is my poison as you dont have to be so fast to fit that manifold in. And yes when you are working for customer put new seals for the manifould its like 4 bucks and job is 200 or so no point to be back for those. 13:20 thanks for the heads up! ...not meny stil drives hear but anyway if one cums up and i see that hose is fine then ...

My duratec used to suck a lot of oil thru this hose, and it seems like this engines did that too. I installed a simple oil catch can and the problem is gone.

Hello Allan , my mk3 mondy is blowing lots of air out of the oil filling hole on the engine, could this Blow-by be a clogged pcv or worn out engine ? Thanks
