The garage i work for look after a fleet of these vans. Many with over 100k miles. We change the oil every 10k which is way lower than the schedule. I think this has really helped in seeing many with over 100k miles without cambelt issues. Great video 👌
I think you are using the wrong cilinder head gasket. 27:29 you can see on top of the gasket there are 5 smal tiktak shaped things sticking out. This indicates the thickness of the gasket. On the first gasket there are only 2 Tiktaks visible. 5:02. The nee gasket you placed is a little bit thicker
Great video. I'm not a mechanic and I was wondering how long did the rebuild take? You are one of the cleanest and most organized mechanics on youtube. I look forward to your next video.
Two things this engine shoud have, 1, a kind of a chamber to colect the belt pieces if it hapens before the oil pump, the way that you could clean and check on every oil change, just taking 4 bolts of and take a lid out of the sump and clean the inside if is the caso, bacause this way all the debris woul'd be retained there and not in the oil pump. 2 an opening on top of the wet belt, on the valves cover, to check the top os the wet belt. The chamber down belom in the sump it coul'd be possible to do a visual check on the oil wet belt.....as it is today, it is needed to take the whole eighter the sump or the valves cover...or both just to see how the wet belts are..., it would be very easy to check it over time. as it is today most cases we find out that the wet belt snaped or the oil light turned on when the problem is very late to be fixed...causing the engine total failure...the ones that doesn't it is by lucky....or put a chain in it and forget all i wrote before....if i coul'd pick, i'd stick with the chain...
Exactly,Ford have used crap parts for years and got away with it,in the 1960s their camshaft and followers were absolutely crap lasting 45,000 if you were lucky in their pre Crossflow engines,they had troubles with the later OHC engines with camshaft’s again, they never learn or didn’t care as long as they lasted the 12months warranty that was the case in those days,since the 3year 60,000 mile warranty came in they had to up their game but it seems they have forgotten about quality all over again,changing these wet belts at 50,000 miles is ridiculous on a 2litre diesel which should be capable of around 300,000 miles without problems. Ford vans are not cheap anymore so the least they could do is put decent parts in them. I used to always buy Ford but the last one I owned was a 2014 Kuga with the 2 lire diesel and that shit Powershift gearbox which was trouble from day one brand new,I’ve always bought BMW since and had no problems.
Not a bean counter an eco nut, it’s meant to cut down emissions, I think the saying the road to hell is paved with good intentions is apt. It’s a dumb design, for what like, 0.5% better efficiency, but given its failure rate it’s tons more damaging to the environment.
This engine is not a problem . A problem is bad oil and too long oil replacemant interval . Old school say Oil replace 10k km and timing belt 70-100k km. With this engine you have to use oil 0w30 recomended for wet timing belt . When you use another oil then you got timing belt degradation
@@KaienDemon91 I work in the automotive industry and am quite aware that I need 0W30 950A for this engine. I sell the oil myself. The car was brand knew and the belt lost all teeth at around 100.000 km. Officially the belt was to be changend at 180.000. Ridiculous, but thats what the engineers at Ford say. I just assumed they know what they are doing. The newer model has an interval of 220.000 km, btw. This engine is an over engineered piece of junk with this experimental timing belt bullshit. And it's weak, too. Car drove like a wandering dune.
I change the oil of my Transit every 15000km, last time I saw parts of the timing belt in my old oil, after that I changed the belt at my Ford dealer (86000km in total)... The engine is good, but the intervals are way too long, for the oil change every 50000km and the belt up to 200000km... That's stupid!
Another one of FORDS "better ideas" Timing cover that you must destroy to get off, Belt for oil pump. Other than that a pretty good little engine. Sad that manufacturers look at bottom line so much that it effects the buyers of these vehicles.
I said when Ford said they were using these belts that they’d lost their minds running a belt in hot engine oil but they assured me that the belts were designed to last the life of the engine,what a load of Bullshit there failings long before that,the should have used a chain but as usual Ford take the cheapest way out,it’s no wonder their warranty claims are through the roof,failures after the warranty period must be costing owners a fortune,these engines should be capable of doing 300,000 miles no problem if their maintained properly. You don’t get these problems with Sprinter engines which I’ve seen do over 500,000 miles and that was running long life oil draining periods which I never would risk it with the price of engine failure over the cost of regular engine oil changes.
Grate video thank you, my engine has done the same. my camshaft look fine all lined up in pairs. But I can’t time it up with out interference. So lobes must of moved but in pairs. Going to order a new cam cover and compare also. Can’t see what else it is
Hope you have it sorted. But yes, the lobes can rotate as they're just sweated onto the cam and are an interference fit like a flywheel ring gear is. If hit hard enough they will slip around.
i am not a mechanic but the problem was that the belts teeth gave up , maybe the camshaft did not have much inertia thus not giving the shaft a hard time , i am most likely wrong .
Do you take customers, and if yes where? My dealership wants up to 2000 just to replace the belt (on an engine it has not broken in yet). They refuse to do the pump as well, while they are at it.
it's a good thing they are easy to work on as well lol those wet belts have a knack for failing prematurely if you even slightly screw up on servicing and maintenance.
Ford'un 2.0 ecoblu motoru son derece sıkıntılı.Transit henüz 80.000 kilometrede ve garip bir şekilde sarsıntılı çalışıyor.Aracın çekiş gücü zayıf.V347 transit 2,4 lt dizel motordan sonra çıkan transitler işe yaramaz.
All for a tiny marginal like probably 0.1% efficiency gain lol so stupid they only care about it lasting long enough for there short warranty period dont care about long term reliability just to get a tiny gain in better fuel economy/emissions
All the big manufacturers do now. The belt can be inspected on this engine, relatively easy too. But Ford aren't doing that at the moment because of supply issues with the belts 💩
new sub. thank you for posting. you are very fastidious - intended as a high compliment. i watch a lot of youtube videos at 1.25x or 1.50x playback speed, to keep from getting bored. i watched this video at 0.75x & 0.50x playback speed to better appreciate your artistry. spoiled the good music, unfortunately : ) .
Great Job mate! I was wondering if you have torque specs for the connecting rods and main bearing caps? and where were you able to get hold of the new bolts? Thanks in advance
We have 9 of these rubbish vans all with full service history 3 so far have had belt failures one with only 75k miles on it ford not interested in any form of compensation. We will never buy another ford
@@gasman4451 We have 6 of these and despite being serviced every 6 thousand miles they still break! As do turbos at 120,000m and adblue systems every month. Plastic coolant pipes crack likewise coolant reservoir, access is dreadful , glow plugs take hours to change, egr is inaccessible, even the oil filler cap needs pliers to remove, unacceptable. Chassis are tough though but no compensation if theres no engine to propel it.
I work for a fleet management company and we have a good few of these vans, they're inspected every 6 weeks, and get an oil change every year and they still have a habit of going boom. Say what you want but a belt was a poor decision.
That is how, the roadside mechanics do it in Africa..! But they on tighten their bolts once and they don't use tourqe specifications or any Autodata...!🤔😮
Just to say very good video your channel came up as suggested I have subscribed and liked the video, you need to get to 1000 subs I believe to get monetised, those engines are surrounded by horror stories but seeing the rebuild a belt change at 60000 km would be a good idea , cannot say I'm a fan of the wet belt I'm just surprised they font make it easier to change the belt,
replace it in front of time and replace the oil every 20.00km I have 210.000 km in 2.5 years I drive min 700 km a day ....... Renault is worse believe me !
Great video loved it thanks for posting!! QUESTION i have the ford custom 2.0 eco blue 2019, had it from brand new and its only done 17,500 miles oil has been changed every year. No short runs as it’s a camper van now, when would you say i need to change the cam belt. I was thinking at 7 years any recommendations would be helpful thanks Michael
I've got a 2019 3.5t Luton with the same engine, the official service interval for the wet belt in these engines is 100,000 miles, or 10 years. If you read up on it a bit online you'll hear a lot of people slagging this engine off, I know a chap that works on them all the time and he has reassured me that it's nothing to worry about it until then, provided that you service it, put the correct oil in it, and don't drive it like a bell end :)
Aromatics in the oil either in the oil itself (wrong stuff used) or diesel past the rings or both. As a long time oil industry Engineer never put rubber with oil and expect it to end well it wont. I would be ashamed to design that. Video is great as it shows buying a Ford ECO is a no no
On our early one of these it had torx head bolts , the top snapped off one and it was promptly ejected through side of cam shaft box, Fords manual said it may be necessary to weld bolt to top of these to undo ,
All this needed is new timing belt, camshafts and all the roker arms and lifters repalced it would have started right up. Didnt need the cylinder head removing. The rocker arms are made to be sacrificial in a case like the timing belt breaking. I done a volkswagen amarok diesel and 2 years still runnning like new.

Оооо, оце розумна людина написала розумну річ. А то міняють мастило раз в 30-40k km і жаліються, що двигун здох на 100k Km
I got 210.000km in 2.5years oil change max every 20.00km
belt replaced after 160.000 km hoping for the best :)
Donc il vaut mieux faire une vidange tt les 40000km pour éviter les problèmes ?@@luc-alaindehaes3512

Didnt they learn anything from the thousands upon thousands of dead lynx engines with this crap wet belt stuff.

This my friends is an engine designed by bean counters.

@@KaienDemon91 I asked a service centre about this. If you follow service interval for oil change, the timing belt should be changed at 180k km.
@DLT-po6to What was your oil change interval? Do you know if you were consuming oil and thus low?
Worst engine ford ever manufactured..
One of many lot of crap ford engines
Ford has produced some of the best engines, only making sense to produce some of the worst!😂
Along with 1.0 ecoboost.
And the lion V6
Another one of FORDS "better ideas" Timing cover that you must destroy to get off, Belt for oil pump. Other than that a pretty good little engine. Sad that manufacturers look at bottom line so much that it effects the buyers of these vehicles.

Ranger Raptor , oil service every 10000 km . Lasy week engine belt broker. Ford never again .
What a junk engine, ford should be ashamed of themselves
How did you recognize the five bended valves?Was it obvious?
Technolagy going backward to fit a green agenda
Hi im putting new cams lifters and belts on mine this week.how do i know if cams are timed with engine befor i put them on thanks
I though the cylinder head was 3x90 degrees in the haynes manual
great video. absolute professionalism.
A very simple engine and very easy to work on. Great video. Not sure about back ground music thou!!
it's a good thing they are easy to work on as well lol
those wet belts have a knack for failing prematurely if you even slightly screw up on servicing and maintenance.
Why do Ford still continue to use wet timing belts when they know the problems that exist in other engines in the eco boom range
design to break
How much labour did u charge? Good recycling, but my boss would just say put a new engine in it 😁
i know that there is always one and i am that one ,, can a chain replace this crap belt set up .
Didn’t check the piston ring gap inside the bore first or even rehone the bores.
Would be great if there was a cam chain retrofit for this engine and some higher tension piston rings as well.
Didn’t show how the diesel pump was timed
About time someone shared these problems with this Ford 2l eco belts
Hi, can you tell me cam shafts tork settings please 🙏
New rings without a hone?

Id like to know what newish vans have good solid engines as im looking for a nearly new van
You would got away set rockers new cams on that
Actually not this one 5 valves was bend slightly
Why not just put a fecking chain on it , makes no sense once add blue deleted a great performer
What is the final torque of the head bolts and camshaft case? 😅

Where did you buy the parts, please?
The Peugeot engine is like this it saves a fraction of the fuel with reduced friction,
Change your music it gets to much
I can't stop watching again and again! What a great and informative video. Thank you so much mate
Where is the number tag hidden on this engine?
What causes the belt to strip teeth?
Was wondering the same..and why they have it running in oil...👍👍
Oil and heat
Aromatics in the oil either in the oil itself (wrong stuff used) or diesel past the rings or both. As a long time oil industry Engineer never put rubber with oil and expect it to end well it wont. I would be ashamed to design that. Video is great as it shows buying a Ford ECO is a no no
No doubt the designer also moonlights for land rover and BMW some of the jobs are like keyhole surgery
Is this the same engine they use in the ford Focus mk4 2019
Best video. Thank you
Moin moin,sag mal bleiben die ventile heile ? Oder waren alle krumm ?
Do the tappets have a circuit on them that you have to remove
I like these engines and think they are great . As long as the belt is changed around 50k .
50 k ??? service at 180.000 200.00 km ???
Witam , gdzie pan ma swój Garaz ? Mam ten sam silnik do zrobię z ta sama usterka 🙁, pozdrawiam
Na moje oko to firma jest Ltd ;) czyli nie sp z o.o. ani jdg 😀
do the valves
bent ?
how tight the bearings are??
On our early one of these it had torx head bolts , the top snapped off one and it was promptly ejected through side of cam shaft box, Fords manual said it may be necessary to weld bolt to top of these to undo ,
Peugeot must have helped design that.😂

Good thanks
Great! Thank You!
Good jop, thank you.
good job well done young man .
All this needed is new timing belt, camshafts and all the roker arms and lifters repalced it would have started right up.
Didnt need the cylinder head removing.
The rocker arms are made to be sacrificial in a case like the timing belt breaking.
I done a volkswagen amarok diesel and 2 years still runnning like new.
5 valves were bent so it did need to come off surely?
It's came only for customer request to replace all lot
I have strip it completely only because was already out
Mine snaped Friday so velves don't bend
Great job. One well sorted engine 👍
