    Use loctite 574 together with the gasket. It will never leak again!

      @silastypol 3 года назад +4

      Good idea, but is it safe? If there is a lot of oil pressure, is there any chance to loctite gets into the oil bus, and make damage, or clog any oil channel?

      If you drive at high engine revs and very fast (high engine load), it can happen that engine uses some oil. Doesn't mean that anything is wrong with the engine. It happened to my Mondeo two years ago, never before and never after, only for that period of time where the car was driven very fast (German Autobahn). ​@@mihaimihai6055

    small fuel pumps and vacuum pumps are fastened with small bolts and have the property of overheating, sometimes damaging the thread in the engine block or breaking the bolt then a lot of things happen. Proper tightening force is important to prevent grease from escaping and tightening the bolt.

    Constantly moving diesel tech on an engine design that’s been around for years. That drive box looks sooo after the fact but necessary in order to drive the pump correctly. Maybe going down the route of a really good liquid gasket maker might help as that outer hole is so close to the edge and miles from the nearest bolts as is the main hole so the clamping pressure is likely pants and not crushing that gasket properly and definitely not holding that pressure adequately! Reminds of the old mechanical fuel pumps on the CVH that’s soft aluminium would be hammered into a curve by the pushrod over time and the two bolts and gasket weren’t enough to seal it

    Hi guys. Sorry for my weak english. I have to point something out, and that is important. These engines (2.0L 150 or 180 HP) are made in cooperation between Ford and PSA. They are not exact te same engines guys. The cylinder block, pistons are common, but some of the engine equipment for sure are different. I was not heard much about high pressure pomp leaks in 508 od C5 and for mondeo is an very typical thing.
    Also way in saving polar bears is different. Dry DPF versus FAP. So saying these are the same engines, is mistake.

If this is the case do you have the part numbers for this gaskets? I believe they are slightly different in shape from the MK5. Thank you in advance and keep up the good videos. Cheers!

    Hi Alan. I really like your videos. It help me a lot with my car do to a lot of repairs by myself. Today i will retrofit my MK5 with new intercooler from biturbo. But i found that as i know now i have a standard problem with leaking. My local garages don't believe in gasket problem. They want to change almost everything else around and charge me a lot. That is why I bought new gasket and want to try to do it myself. Do i need to remember about something important when i take out the pump to not destroy engine or me (fuel there is under high pressure and i need to reduce the pressure before i unscrew it) ? :) Is there any special position that it has to be fixed ? Or it is very simple i just take it out put new gasket and put together again ? :)

    • @alan4x
      @alan4x  5 лет назад +2

      hi, there won't be any fuel pressure, there is a metal cage at the rear of the pump and the wiring connector is a little tricky but you will unbolt the pump and remove it and then unbolt the gear casing behind the pump...nothing needs to be timed or set in any position.
      there is a plastic turbo pipe that runs from the turbo to a turbo hose at the front of the gearbox..it needs to be removed which is a pain if you have never done one....if you do attempt it then just take your time

After taking out the battery and with a lot of scratches on my hand later i was able to take it out :). Hope tomorrow i will do second part and disconnect all the fuel hoses and take out the pump. Do i need to be worry about air stuck inside fuel pump after fixing it ? Or it's different in MK5 than in MK4 and electric pump will do the job so after fixing pump i just need to start the car and be happy that oil finally stopped leaking ?

    Perhaps the solution is to take the pump off and have a groove machined in the face and fit an o-ring.

      Hi again Alan, thanks for the reply. Regarding the pump to camshaft timing,,, is this because as you would withdraw the pump in any position - I guess it could kick rotate due to the spring pressure from the pump. So my point is,, is there any point in chancing not timing the cam as the engine crank would be stationary?
      Also,,, I see that the inner gasket does not have sufficient /even bolt down force around the oil feed area. A 3 bolt 120 degree would have been a better arrangement in this area. I was going to chance a very fine smear of hylomar sealent around the outside of the embossed oil feed area as a back up. What do you think?

    All French engines find ways to leak oil. I've never seen a dry one. I've got an ancient XN engine in a Talbot that leaks a small amount from a few spots, I've also got a BX with an XUD that leaks pretty badly, and all TU engines will leak from the rocker cover. I've seen them piss oil from the head gasket too when they get very old.
    I've not come across a Mk3 Mondeo that leaks oil yet. I'm sure they're out there but all the ones I know are dry as a bone. They tend to burn oil rather than leak it.

    hello, mine is the mondeo mk5 2.0 tdci 150cv of the year 2015, it leaks oil from the injection or high pressure pump. I understand that changing the joints solves the problem, right? Or do I have to directly change the pump? Thank you

    Uneven clamping force, just look at the bolt spacing around the oil way! I see this all the time these days.

    Don't know why you don't add some sealant to the gasket or make your own just to try and experiment
    Many years ago when fixing automatic gearboxes on buses we had major leaks on fluid flywheels with a known gasket so we added a touch of loctite 518 and it was far better then we ditched the gasket just added sealant and they where bone dry

      need to add a ballast resistors to compensate for the missing bulb resistance. Get the same problem with many cars/motorcycles when you swap to a LED bulb if they dont have a purely electronic turn signal controller. The resistance in the bulb acts as part of a timing circuit but when you remove the bulb and swap to a LED the resistance drops thus the timing cycle becomes shorter.

    I think the cause is a major design issue, there should be a 6th bolt where that dowel is to even out the clamping pressure over the gasket face. I don't think there is any positive engine oil pressure in that gear casing, just oil splashing around inside... Why on earth did ford choose a French engine when they have so many of their own laying around? COST Cutting! They have been the masters of that since the 1960's . Who in their wisdom decided to use fords for a taxi fleet ? At least you will have plenty of work to do for the rest of your life 😄 I have been working on Volvo's for 45 years and the only common problems left over have FoMoCo stamped on them ! Ford bought Volvo in 1999, raped their technology ,used some of their parts for Aston Martin and dumped them in 2010, Volvo sales have rocketed since.up,up,up for the last 5 years with growth every single month since the new range was launched.
