Great video bud

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?

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

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.

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.

[@stuartcraigon2003]

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.

@@stuartcraigon2003but it’s not nice to strip down and some people can’t afford the wet belt changes

[@stuartcraigon2003]

@itswais77 it's essential and not a choice really. It's the belt or a new engine. 🤷‍♂️

[@BottleBrookGardens]

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]

@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.

[@PTRsTransport]

Great video, thank you. How many hours work does this belt replacement take? Cheers

[@apartmentswales]

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

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

Nope
