Wow what a shame for the guy lucky it didn’t do any damage eh😓, could have been expensive, typical though!so meany of these rip off copied tools on the market along with all the car parts that a Certain county (trying to be PC 😉) copies using garbage materials like the spark plugs and injectors to name a few! People think there getting a bargain but all they’re getting is a potential head ache! Better to pay the extra 💷💷💷 for peace of mind, great work again guys! Ps I don’t mind the premier thumb nail keeps you interested 👍🏼

I'm proud to say that I did this exact DIY job myself on a Focus ST225 successfully without any timing tools. However, I came across something strange. The exhaust cam sprocket was 120 degrees off (according to the markings) . The car has had top end work done in the past but timing was still correct Always has puzzled me.

Worth noting that on occasions these engines were miss timed from factory, as in my case. Had mine from new, had blockmod done at Dreamscience, put it back together and wouldn't time- kept jumping a tooth at the crank. Turned out one of the cam bolts? (whatever the timing tool sits into) had never been seated correctly and was showing wear/damage. Eventually they got it to seat and time. Ford had to of done something to prevent any faults, but no one knew what.

He successfully completed the work; it was the tool that let him down. The planning and the work was on point: the tool on the other hand was not.

Talk about rubbing salt into my wounds lol. I find myself in exactly the same situation as your customer. I was let down by a crap cam locking tool off eBay. Car appeared to run fine but got two errors come on with engine warning light. Got it booked in at dealers to sort (ouch). Wish I was closer to use you guys, harsh lesson learned I guess ☹️

But if you’d had the genuine tool; things may have been different. It’s a hard lesson but proves it’s not just skill that’s required; the right tools help also! Thanks for the comment and hope the bill is a small one 🤞

Maybe it is just me but I crafted an accurate wooden timing tool and. did the job myself....and it worked...so dont get me wrong but maybe it was not just the knockoff tool alone..I assume that something might have been overlooked or messed up by the owner.. at least it did not cost an engine..

When having CVT sprockets markings aligned (so the crankshaft marking on the timing belt side and they all fit well installed timing belt teeth) do camshafts on the sensors side always get to 0° position when engine turns off so their positions should remain parallel?

I have a Mondeo 2.5T (basically same engine) that I bought some months ago, second hand. The previous owner did the timing belt by himself, with no locking tools. The car idles ok but there is definitely some hesitation at around 2000 rpm and also until engine warms up. Boost solenoid, spark plugs,MAP and MAF replaced. No error codes shown but I did the compliance test with Torque App and it shows some misfires from time to time, all cylinders. Should I suspect timing even if there are no codes stored?

Fair play to the owner, seem he got unlucky. Just curious what his symptoms where originally, I get that same fault code intermittently and boost falls off at 3k only to come back on at exactly 4k, could this potentially be it ?

Today I sussed out what caused those error codes, the two wires that connect to what looks like sensors at the cam wheels end were not connected🤦‍♂️ my fault entirely, timing should be easily fixed, suspect it’s a tooth out.
