I am glad someone is taking the mystery/fear out of Ferrari repair/maintenance! Thank you!
I just want to say that Ratarossa is an absolute legend! Have just followed his instructions, word for word.......cambelt changed and all fluids done! Thank you, thank you, thank YOU
Welcome buddy, glad it helped
Did you buy the tool or use the 6th gear brake method?
You literally single handedly changed the timing belts (while the other held the camera). What amazing patience you have. Brilliant work and thank you for posting the video.
Glad it helped
Very informative video. Now I know what I got for my money, when my mechanic did this to my 360, in July. I'll let him do it again when the time comes to do it again.
A CLUTCH JOB WILL BE PHENOMENAL!!!
You do such a great job working with one hand while holding the camera while keeping the frame in view while explaining what you are doing while keeping your hair perfectly styled. I'm very impressed.
Unbelievably brilliant step by step!
Bigger version of my Ducati.
Can’t wait to get my hands on a 360 of my own and do this myself when it’s time.
Thank you.
Oh my gosh ,awesome video you have given me confidence to do my own belt change! I was scheduled to go in on Monday the Mechanic tells me Ow,I'm 2 to 3 weeks backup didn't even call me!? I showed up that morning which would be is it Monday the 25th. Really nice guy and a great mechanic But on the business and hes kind of lacking skills, It's called call the customer and let him know,,,, . I am Definitely a DIY. Always say , if you want it done right do-it-yourself!. But i never ever, thought I could do anything like this on my 360 it's such a big deal. In the amount of money that the Ferrari Mechanics want to charge. Is or even a independent. So, I am not a rich person whatsoever. I sold my house to get this car! Now I have a 40' motor home used, a used car trailer That I've totally pimped out to look like a Major Ferrari man cave on wheels. I'm in heaven! I am going to cancel my appointment with this Mechanic. And with all the confidence I am going to do this. I will prefab that plate You are showing on the video . Is same with the Is spacer pipe.I will do everything exactly how you did it. I'm 63 but very healthy And young at heart. I started out with the 72 Chevy Vega, Did the 77 transam thing and then did the Corvette Thing, Then I really wasted some years by doing the kit car kit kar lambo thing. Then I really finally got the real deal oh on May 11th it will be 2 years!
I'm up for the challenge. Here's the kicker. I feel when I accomplish this it's gonna be right up there with some good sex! Meaning what I am going to feel like after I do this service! Is indorphans will be flying!
It's almost like I wanna go out and have custom print T-shirt And bumper made saying, I did a major service on my Ferrari 360 by myself! So kiss my ass!! Ha, Thank you so much for putting this On RUclips. ( one Q's When you were putting on the Cambelts and you were clamping them down and then the video stopped ,what trick did you do to get it to go the tensioner ? I was thinking for sure the belt definitely needs to be soft and warm Do you do anything to make the belt more flexible? I figured I'd ask this question before I get started.
Once again thanks, You're the man!
Hope one day I could send you a picture of my 360 and my garage on wheels! I live in Durango Colorado, beautiful mountain town and there's a 253 mile stretch they call the $millon dollar highway$
I'll make that drive here in June sometime. You go over several mountain passes as high as 10,850" Beautiful country! Cheers!
Thanks for the kind comment. Glad this has helped you out. Theres no trick with the belts, you dont warm them up or anything like that. Its really just perseverance and making sure all the belt is nice and uniformly correct on each expanse. Its a pretty easy job to do. Just triple check everything each step and make sure you mark everything before starting ... that is really just as a backup incase anything slips or moves, you than have a reference point to go back to and restart. best of luck and great to hear your story. Enjoy that 360, ive had my current on over 12 years now and it still thrills me every drive.
As a tech this is awesome to see. I always see "maintenence costs" from owners that pay labor (assuming any ferrari shop is big $$/hr). I've seen prices of both oem parts (gaskets etc) & aftermarket (stainless ball joints etc) & they honestly don't seem to bad compared to other performance or import cars. Now to get the $100k+ to buy one lol
Great video with lots of details, don’t even own a Ferrari but I still enjoy the content 👍🏼
Zaheed Sankriwala ya ya ya that’s brilliant 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻
@@callefalk6557 what?
Outstanding Scott! Great to watch; entertainment and education at the same time.
Great video. I like the way that you meticulously explained each step to perfection.
I have a 360 spider with racing headers cat bypass and level 3 capristo. I love the sound,music to my hears.
Grazie Mille. Ciao. Graziano from Florida u.s.a.
This is not a professional mechanic- this is a MASTER MECHANIC. Period.....
Nice work! I've been DIY'ing my 993's the past 10yrs-everything but major engine stuff. This video makes me want to get a 360!! Good stuff mate. The best money I spent on DIY repairs: a $1500 USD CAR LIFT!
thanks Brian, the lift is one my long list of things to buy
What a great DIY video - clear and expertise shared. Really great 👍
Brilliantly done! I’m not afraid to purchase a 360 anymore! Many thanks!
I’m not a mechanic, and I don’t own a Ferrari, but I’m still watching your video 😹
Great instructional video!! You absolutely made each step simple to understand. An intelligently and detailed instructional video!! 2 Thumps UP!!
The 360 was one of the first Ferraris that you could actually do this on, as in home maintenance and also not having to remove the engine all the time. Before this every few years you basically had to remove the engine out of pretty much every Ferrari built. Even the F355 in the other side of the garage shot there has to have a full engine out service to do the jobs properly.
just finish my belts !!! good video,thanks
Outstanding job! You made it look so easy with excellent instructions thank you
I’ve got a 360 spider. When I saw this video I thought, cool, I’ve got all the tools etc. I’ll watch this and when the time comes I’ll do it. No way in hell am I confident enough to do that. I may as well be performing brain surgery.
That was awesome to watch though. You did a beautiful job showing and explaining everything.
Watched from start to finish. Great video and explanation.
Great video. Please keep on showing us how to do regular maintenance or how to repair issues on a Modena. Thanks a lot.
A well narrated video of the sequence involved in completing the steps to this service. A sincere thanks from me a Ferrari enthusiast who is happy to service my own machines..
Great video with lots of details! Thank you!
Luv they way you explain everything to detail ....your awesome dude 😃😃
a very enjoyable video , best i have seen in many years
Well I got my car all up on all fours rear bumper off cuz I'm going to also change out the oil and gearbox fluid and all the belts I really want to thank you for this video like many other people instead of paying someone else I can't think of any better gratitude and confidence Builder doing this work myself as much as I love my car knowing that I'm doing the work on it makes me feel closer to my car connected I think it should be that way with everything in life DIY is the way to go! Keep up the work over there in UK
Great video! Those cars aren't as cramped to work on as I expected. Thanks for showing you don't have to spend a bunch of money on specialty tools. But sometimes you do. Thanks again!
The layout of this timing belt looks almost identical to a Mitsubishi 4g63. I did the timing belt in my eclipse a week or so ago and it looks incredibly similar in this car, minus the fact it’s a v8 vs my inline 4 cylinder haha! I’ve only done 2 timing belts ever, a bmw e30 and the 4g63t. The bmw looked nothing like this, I’m guessing it’s just a common design, pretty neat!
Nothing like doing the work your self, even if it's a Ferrari, fantastic video, very handy for when I get my 360 one day I hope cheers....
Thanks Danial, I really enjoy doing the work myself. Good luck with your Ferrari quest
Ratarossa is single-handedly driving up the cost of the 360 because he's showing all us normal folk that Ferrari ownership isn't a scary thing anymore lol
Amazing process, thank you for all explanation!!
My dear friend it was a great pleasure to watch your work...brilliant.🍻
Hey bro you should change your Italian stripe decal into the full green, white and red. It would pop out more. Just a suggestion
Love it mate👍 I’m a big fan of people who use their head
I’ve been working on cars my whole life and would jump all over this
The modenas here in Canada are overpriced in my opinion just like everything else
The 512 Tr is the car I’ve always wanted but it’s hitting roughly $300 k Canadian so my second choice is a Modena
Keep it up my friend👍
Massimo Campoli thanks fir the kind comment. I love the 512tr but it commands a premium everywhere now (not just Canada) but the Modena is great value for money. What happens if you import one over there .... Big tax ?
Much as i love my Tesla, the sound of a Ferrari, gives me goosebumps. ❤️
Hey,best vídeo of Ferrari on RUclips!!Brazil!!!
Thank you. Great video
Excellent video !
Very nice explaind how to replace the timing belts thank you
Excellent stuff! Many thanks
Excellent video & great information. Thank you for sharing! 🇺🇸🇵🇹
Thanks for this video, I hope you got paid well with all the advertisements you tube ran in this 1 hour 10 min video.
Great Vid Mate!
Awesome video.
Great video but a tip- You should only click a torque wrench once. Doing it 3 times as shown on that drive pulley increases the torque setting a lot more than people think.
Really enjoyable video - thank you
broomad thank you 🙏
Wonderful video 👍
Great work loved it 👍🇦🇺
Thank you so much. When I buy mine I'll be much more confident
just found your link!! Thanks
You rock bro... I’m going to try to replace my 360 belts. Thanks for the info..
For TDC how do you determine when the chopstick is at the highest point whether its the compression of exhaust stroke ?
@@CS-932 Thanks !
Nice vid! Do you have a video on changing the door handle latch cables/parts that typically fail on 360s?
ke0kie I did a full write on that about 15 years ago on FerrariChat
your channel is bible for F360 owners and also for potential owner like me~!
If you tighten the tensioner pulley to spec according to the length of the spring tensioner and the belt is too loose wouldn't that indicate that the spring tensioner is weak and needs to be replaced?
excellent video
thanks
impressive- learnt a lot as a layman...
Amazing the best. Charming personality
Great work man keep it up
Top of Pop 👍🏻👍🏻‼️
Just bought a 360 that needed help, the tipping point to buy was your youtube video of how to do the cam belts (one of the many items the car needed), as the local guy wanted $3600 to do the job, bought the parts from Seperformance in the UK, WAY cheaper than anywhere here in the USA by a LOT (you must keep ya order under $800 for no import fees tho!).
Question; TDC on cyl #1, how do you know if its on the compression stroke?
Again, YOUR the reason i jumped in with both feet, so thank you thank you thank you....regards, Ian (Da Crazy Brit, Stateside)
Good stuff, thank you.
That was an awesome video!!! I could totally do that job. I might just have to go out and buy a 360 now. I saw one on ebay for 65k US.
Fantastic! Been waiting for someone to do this. Was just about to book mine in to a local garage, but just don't trust anyone out there that's close by, all done this weekend, worked out exactly how you described. Many many thanks! Had to take my hydraulic tensioner off, I don't suppose you know the torque settings for the 2 bolts? Keep up the great work, as soon as you've done the power steering fluid and antifreeze change I'm back on the road.
25 NM Make sure you have the updated bolts, 185234, 205693
Big ....BIG Fan of You .....from Germany ........ You are "more" than GREAT !!!!!!
You are my Ferrari Idol :-)
Thank you for all the great Video Stuff you do ..... thank You Sir ..... Good bless you :-)
Thanks for a very informative video. I do have a few questions......
1/ If the cams and crank have yellow alignment marks on them at the belt end why do you need to remove the cam covers and check the marks at that end also? And why take a plug out and find tdc? If all the yellow marks are lined up everything has to be fine doesn't it?
2/ Why can you not refit the belt tensioner pulley after the belt is on the three big pulleys? It may make refitting the belt easier?
3/ Is it even possible for the tensioner gap to be incorrect with the pin still in place?
4/ If the frequency of the cam belt in incorrect after fitting how do you adjust the tension without the pin locking up? And surely once the engine is running belt tension is maintained by the tensioner so how critical can the frequency be?
These are very good questions. I would like to know too.
Very interesting. Well done....thanks for sharing.
50:00 bit different to the old days when you just gave a belt a quarter turn twist to see if was tensioned 😁
The subtitles are a real hoot!
ahhh yes RUclips auto translate is as well done as the Ferrari service manual translations
All this time I thought it was an engine out job. Then I find out it is an easier job than on most Alfas of that era! This makes me think about buying a 360, as I would have gone for a 430 previously thinking this job was a nightmare. So the lesson is: don't listen to everything you hear on the internet.
Awesome educational vid - thanks for sharing! One question, what is the dimension for the positioning of the through bolts on the lock tool at the end of the vid, i.e. how far from the middle of the block does each sit along the centre line?
Missed the part where you rotated the crank to tdc. Marks? Or just "the void" 😱 Subscribed anyways, top notch info, descriptions, and walkthrough!
Possibly a ludicrous though, so, my apologies in advance, but Im wondering if you’ve considered replacing the standard service panel with a sheet of acrylic? It seemed like a cool idea to me, anyways
The problem is you would lose the "firewall" protection. Besides, the carpet would cover up the plexiglass.
Great vid by someone that clearly knows Ferrari's.You didn't show us how you adjusted the camshaft bearings to tighten the belts to achieve the correct resonance, or did I miss that bit?
What was very surprising to me was that Ferrari recommends those Vise-grips to hold the cam pullies! yikes! The Japanese cars us a plastic pinch like tool to lock the pullies together ; ie it prevents them from rotating without laterally loading the pullies. Great job on the video!
Works also for my Trabant
Awesome vid! When is part 3 coming out?
Great work ..thanks
Doesn't Ferrari have specs for cam timing that require the use of gauges? ....and the correct factory cam timing for optimum performance is very precise? There is a difference between just having the engine running and optimum performance.....and I understand that it can take hours to get the correct timing.
very instructive and detailed video. brillant explanations, subtitles work well.
You made me follow you..... +1
what are timing belt and rollers reference ?
Keep going on this way. Congrats
Legend
Hats off to you!!
Amazing video thank you for sharing if and when I get a chance to get a super car I will no where too look
Raymond Starr thank you
Cheers for the Video mate. I always want to get a 360...the crazy belt service always scares me. How often do normaly people actually change these belts? Assuming Ferrari want it changed every 3 years :(
I've done this on my Ducat but on there I counted the number of teeth on the belt and made sure I have the correct number between each gear. Did I miss the part where you did that or is it different with the Ferrari timing belt?
Very good video! Thank you!
welcome, hope it helps
@@Ratarossa Very much so. Putting it back together tomorrow. I was looking for confirmation on wich is cylinder no1.
How long would that entire belt service you performed take if you weren't in a hurry, or filming?
Thats a tricky one to answer. Obviously doing the filming for you guys this took A LOT longer because I wanted to get it right for you and not skip any corner and also to show you different ways, example being the cheap DIY cost saving version versus the Factory way using correct expensive tools that way it helps a vast array of owners. Also the more times you do it the easier it gets. The frequency side of things for me took a while as I needed to research various apps etc. But I would say now for me to do it again tomorrow a realistically about 5-6 hours. The bulk of that time is spent removing parts to get to the actual belts. so stuff like the under tray and seats all take up a chunk of time. the belts themselves are relatively quick. Again as i sat in the video, doing a job like this if you are doing it yourself, allow plenty of time as when you are rushed you make mistakes and thats something that you don't want to do with timing belts. More time, more relaxed and you'll enjoy the process more.
hope that helps
It always takes me about 1-2 days, but ideally leave yourself a week if you’re DIY in case you face any difficulties!
I thoroughly enjoyed that great stuff well done great info and tips 🔧👍
GREAT JOB
Awsome video love it. just ordered all my stuff to do it myself.thank you.
And i just saw you in the forza ferrari magazine article.good stuff.cant wait for your next video.
Quick question.do we really need to put it in top dead center.why not just a lock and swap.
And on the tensioner does it have to be removed to align the pin hole?or can we use the wrench tool to try and push it back in place till the allen key pin lines up in the hole?
Thanks for the heads up on the Forza Magazine, I went online and found it and just received my copy from the editor in the post today
To answer the questions, yes absolutely you could do a lock and swap. In the video i'm trying to teach how its done by the factory and for those doing it first time etc. The other issue with a lock and swap is if a tooth slips or you are half a tooth out from an old stretched belt v new one. If you have TDC and all your alignment marks you have a reference start point should something go wrong, I guess its just a safe way of playing it.
Regarding the tensioner yes you can try and use the wrench to push it back in, there is a heck of pressure on the shaft and it worked on one of mine but not the other which is why that one came off and was compressed in the vice. time wise its easy if you can use a wrench in car but its only two bolts to take it out the car so a couple of mins, if its difficult and you risk damaging something then take the easy route and remove it.
Hope that answers the questions
@@Ratarossa thanks got it will play it safe
Where is the "Resta-toaster"? Outside? hope it doesn't rain!
Good one Scott,
Rather than setting the engine to TDC, couldn’t you just mark the position of all the pulleys with a marker ( like nail varnish ) and as long as they all line up on refitting, all should be good ....no?
yes 100%, the TDC was a failsafe incase somehow you manage to rotate everything and misalign. its a reference to put it all back
Pretty more simple than some sweden cars!
Very nicely don
great video!!
it will be of great help to me when i change my tyming belts, on my 360!
i have a couple of questions for you, your old belts were pretty bad / cracked, how long have they been on the car for how many years and miles ??
and what ferrari diagnostics can you recommend for me, is there anything in the range of about 2000 € ??
keep up the good work! 😎
It´s really nice !!
