Tip and Trick for others about the same seal. what can also be done is this and its also successful, I cut the flat side out of a thin 2 litter plastic milk container just a bit larger then the seal and longer (4") so as to be tab (handle). Place the o-ring in position and lube up (I generally don't use rtv on o-rings especially around oil/coolant galleries but its your choice) RTV the housings as per usual and the plastic tab, place plastic tab over the sharp edge and the oil suction hole install the housing, seal should glide over the hole with no chance of cutting when close to home say with a mm or 2 pull the plastic out making sure all the plastic tab comes away intact. I use this method Not saying its right or wrong but it works for me.

Thanks for the heads up about oil pressure. You are a champion

[@southreachchurch8486]

Very helpful...Des ur a legend...from watching ur video's I had the confidence to do a basic service on my new (2nd hand) D40...I overfilled the oil cas I didn't take into account what was left after draining! But now know what I need to do....all thanks to these vid's. Good job. Jon M South Africa

[@jeffrobertson2263]

I’ve just bought a 2007 Navara, with a cracked head. I sourced & good second hand one (yes it was checked) & fitted it. Bought a timing chain upgrade only to find its already been done 😞! Anyway I watch a few of your vids to do the job & they were a great help. Thanks heaps & you’ve gained another subscriber! Cheers from Aus 🇦🇺👍

[@irondonkey65]

Hi Jeff, What was the cost of the timing chain upgrade and did it include tensioners etc ?

[@ajenssen]

Thnx on the tip, just got an 2006 x-trail where the former owner did a chain replacement and the engine warning light is on, and a strange noize when running. It cuts out when it tries running on idle but it runs when i disconnect the cam sensor. Tearing it down tomorrow to check if he realy did replace the parts and if the timing is correct. And also checking the upper tensoner cos i heard that on cheap kits it can fail

[@ajenssen]

A little update, this time mi own mistake. I did not check the oil nozzle spraying the upper chain with oil.This have been blocked and the uper chain now need to change again. Im gonna change the oilpump and clean the pickup tube and gasket at the same time. By that operation i know everything is ok.When your having thins out CHECK THE OIL SQUIRTER. (you shoud make a video on that?)

[@RogerWilco66]

Great stuff! Thanks for sharing all that info, mate! I just wish you were located closer! Cheers, Mark (from Germany)

[@gavincorcoran4108]

Fixing big engines air start 10 tonne fly wheel generator units,' o rings are very important to right fitting .I make my own at times with kit of all sizes and do your's rubber grease, silicone grease, and selant to hold them in .My nissan t31 is a very good suv .Very good your channel has helped everyone. Thanks .

I'm glad I found you on KZbin. Love from Sweden.

[@westyorkshireengineservice9160]

Thank you thanks for watching

[@thomastolster3934]

West yorkshire engine services can you please answer my comments so i can tell you how incorrect you are!!!!

[@closertothetruth9209]

great tips mate and very helpful not many would give free advice like that , i actualy cut an o-ring just like that, but i did notice it was a tight fit etc so i removed it just to check and learnt the same things. i did the same using rtv as i was worried it would not perfectly seal and a dab of super glue so the o- rings dont fall out when assembling, horrible design really , maybe im too much of a perfectionist or stress monkey, hard to tell somedays.

[@MrGoogelaar]

5:05. Why would turning the engine by hand make the timing to go out but not by turning with the starter?

[@reuben.holmes.9690]

Ye why?.

[@ljgarrison6910]

I would assume it is because the oil pump would come on

[@gegwen7440]

As he said it, I said what !, its a tensioner to take up the chains slack & nothing more. Also as Dean said never use RTV on O Rings !

[@viktoriyastaneva4441]

@@gegwen7440 There isn't a singe manufacturer that recommends RTV in oil systems, None, the seal is designed to work without the rtv, the original procedure is to remove the sump, assemble the chain cover with pump then the sump goes in.

[@TheMrthiagox]

What is the correct way to install th jet squiter from oil pump?

[@westyorkshireengineservice9160]

hit it with a hammer and some oil

[@dricks-by3jc]

This is very helpful. I'm not getting oil to the head in my D40 and the light is on

[@fredscheerle7592]

Hi Des, Very informative, If you suspect a Misassembled Timing chain upgrade what sort of noises would I get? and would a Oil Pressure Test show any thing? Regards Fred.

[@hlukofuba7276]

Morning, thank you again for the information, I have a problem on my D40 yd25, i've done an engine rebuild and it have a crank position sensor issue and every the seonsor in connected the engine will not start but runs without it.ANY Ideas😊😊

[@thesuccessfulbarber]

Thats a tough line of work and hard on your body. Lots of chemicals. Take care.

[@matthewwilliams8194]

Can you check the oil pressure to see if it is fine?

[@awesomesoundfx306]

Is there a particular timing chain upgrade kit you can recommend??

[@fredscheerle7592]

Hi, Is it required to drain sump complexly if you suspect your mech has made a 'boo boo' Re, lower seal? And how does one broch the possibility he has? I'm been told it most likably is Injectors!

[@rogerfaulknershomefromhome4458]

On v6 jaguar engine timing change you pump up oil into tensioner and system

[@agt155]

Wonder if it's worth cutting the dowels down a bit to help fitting.

[@stanleywrubel8920]

Hey love the vids. im from the u.s. and we didnt get the tubro charged motors in our frontiers and pathfinders...i have a 05 pathfinder that i swapped out the motor because old owner didnt have oil in it(multiple rod knock) and it has the vq40de. Was wondering if you have ever worked on the that motor?

[@12345678955524]

You guys are live savers

[@bobethomolon5130]

Thank you sir im alway watch your ticnik repair nissan common problem thank very a lot

[@mx83toy]

You guys are awesome!

[@abdouben4011]

I bought a Nissan Navara and the oil lamp started burning every time, is it possible that the pump is not working or something else please help

[@danielwhittle7742]

Handy info how ever you said his mechanic done it wrong yet dident point out anything they had actually done wrong? As seals where not split or cut and in place so what was the issue they done

[@westyorkshireengineservice9160]

An Australian guy had split the seal and I was letting people know of the problem you could have if not done properly

[@thomastolster3934]

Are you actually telling people to turn the engine over with the starter motor instead of by hand!!!! Those tensioners will either have a spring inside them or be ratcheted so therell be no issue in turning by hand, how you think your car manages when it first starts with no oil pressure???? Youre saying use the starter i assume because it will give oil pressure to the tensioners? How will it when the oil pumps not even on the engine?

[@tonygarlingewarren7456]

I think this guy knows what he is doing. He wouldn't give bad advice he does this day in day out with no problems

[@thomastolster3934]

Tony Garlingewarren well he does and he is. Ive watched all of his vids just for comedy value. The guy hasnt got a clue.

[@Josh-vj5ip]

Big thanks from nz!

[@anton_kos]

Always something interesting.

[@graemerolfe1573]

Advice on what would cause a reluctance to start on a D40?

[@westyorkshireengineservice9160]

Chain or suction control valve or lift pump for starter

[@moddedcars8942]

great mechanic

[@rayyoung5914]

great tips Des

[@mattdavies-jones1351]

Why is it best not to turn over by hand before starting the engine?

[@aatuimpio7758]

Is it really mistake if you turn the engine by hand crankcshaft?

[@gegwen7440]

No, take no notice of what he said.

[@thomastolster3934]

Not at all hes full of shit

[@andeennaomi]

the mechanic say I need a new engine I have the same oil pressure problem and I bought a new oil pump and it doesn't work

[@QattroTurbo]

А вы что нибудь знаете про проблемы с вакуумный насос на этом двигателе?

[@michaelsecku6451]

Boss please i need your help . there's a noise in my engine and the oil light is also off. and I can see the oil is also pumping correctly . please what might it be?

[@westyorkshireengineservice9160]

Oil pump gone faulty

[@michaelsecku6451]

Really, wow

[@michaelsecku6451]

Please but the car is also moving and pulling good. only the noise of the engine I could hear. I've serviced the injectors and also changed fuel solenoid and a lot, but still noisy

[@eglanegavaudmexil458]

[@cherfabdlgani4008]

I want to work with you, thank you

[@westyorkshireengineservice9160]

Thanks for that buddy 😊

[@rcracer641]

Nice fellow and good info.

[@thorthor6999]

Whatever muppet you dont use rtv there just remove the dowels put cover on and then dowels

[@mysock351C]

RTV aside I'm not sure how you'd install the dowels once the cover is in place. They look to be blind holes and a press fit into the lower timing chain cover. Better to just grease the O-rings in the grooves and not try to come straight in line with the dowels when the o-ring is over the edge of the oil pan.

[@whocares4199]

No mention if replacing those 2 oil seal o rings for new......while its opened, i noticed.

[@baits9301]

OMG , I can't believe you can't turn the engine over by hand without it skipping a tooth .

[@joeydouble2693]

Hi sir! I have a nissan hard body MP300.And there's a noisy knocking sound in the engine every time that I accelerated it,It sounds like a fuel knock or something.What seems to be the problem of that knocking noise? Thank you and god bless.

[@westyorkshireengineservice9160]

Hi Joel could you send a video on are facebook then we can guide you in the right direction Many Thanks Des

[@joeydouble2693]

ok sir,Thank you so much!
