Very well explained process throughout this video. Great video chap, promise you'll keep them coming.

Really enjoying all of your XUD vids! Do you happen to have a source for the valve shims? I need a couple shipped over across the pond to the US. Can't seem to locate any of them. Thanks, Todd.

Watched both of the videos on the 1.9...I have a toro with about the same engine as yours. The only manual I found was online. But since never worked on a Peugeot having trouble finding out the valve clearance on the intake and exhaust..one place says this other looks like that....wondering if you could tell me what your book says on the valve clearance. Thanks for any help possible, and enjoyed the videos.....

just did the head gasket on my mothers car, thanks for the videos, you have been a great help. My torx key was a bit short and it caused the angle gauge to touch the head and stick and not rotate while tightening the bolts so I don't know if I got the 180 degrees turn right or not, this happened on a few of the bolts, Ahg! Just started the car and it runs, turned it back off and will give it a try tomorrow. Not so easy doing the head in situ. Thanks Buddy.

Hello i like your video i am interested to know where you bought your gasket kit parts for the head My 1.8 diesel 205 broke down big puff of antifreeze through the exhaust not sure what the damage is till the head comes of are parts expense cheers

Did you spin the Camshaft to ensure it ‘bounces’ freely from Valve to Valve? Mine was everso tight first attempt, generous application of oil either side of 4 & 5 second time sorted it. My Haynes states 10Nm for the “Cylinder Head Cover Bolts”. Wise to put a thin smear of Instant Gasket on the bottom face of the Rocker Cover Gasket, specially corners. Two full turns TDC to TDC.

Thanks for greaat video. How you control valve buckets clearance ? Did you replace any shims by new one with different tickness?

Thanks for answer. I'm also going to dismantle the cylinder head from the same engine. I also have a vacuum pump installed, which now I want to remove it, put a plug, but I don't know where to find one. A bad rubber O-ring causes engine oil to ooze under the vacuum pump. Not much, but there is. I know that there used to be a cylinder head with two sealings on the camshaft on both sides, and where I now have a vacuum pump installed, there was just a pulley. For example, on this engine on a PEUGEOT 405 II 1.9 D car it was just like that. Maybe you know how you can install two oil seals on the camshaft? Is it possible to simply change the camshaft to an earlier one, like on the PEUGEOT 405 II 1.9 D? And by the way, how did you cleaned the valves well? I saw you had little round like Dremel's brushes or something on your desk. Did you clean with them?

Great video. Looking forward to the rest of the rebuild. One question: What materials did you use to clean up the head.

Nice work! Thank you for the video. Please explain why you did not do cylinder head resurfacing? Wasn't that necessary?

Hi sorry to bother you I’m just wondering if I can get any advice in person ( when COVID-19 has ended of course) where do you live, many thanks

Friend, you have earned a subscriber. Thanks for the info. Tell me where I can get that Haynes manual, do you have any video on the manual? I am a toy in South America and it is not easy to obtain information about the xud9 engine put in my citroen xsara. Please help me about the manual or make a short video about the manual. Thank you very much and forgive my English, I am using the google taductor. Cheers!

Very very good
