Hardly need to scan tool to know what it is on your new of those engines. Anyone owning one I'd recommend pulling the sump off and oil pump, and replacing it with one from the earlier Euro 4 transit engine (same block minus one cylinder) . Pre 2011 these engines were fitted with a gear pump that was decent enough and very rarely failed. Post 2011 or euro 5 they were fitted with a vane type pump that would start to disintegrate once it had some wear on it. Luckily they are both the same externally so the older style pump will bolt up. The only difference is a small feed pipe on the vane pump whose port has to be blocked off using a bolt. Do the swap ASAP, if your Ranger has more than 80k on it there's a good chance your pump can go at anytime.

@@kennedysgarage3281 Hi, I have the same SCBS warning too on my 2017 Mazda 6 with 20K miles, Mazda dealer couldn't find the fault until it then came on with EML with code P0101, now they tell me needs a carbon clean ! Bought some JLM Diesel Ultimate clean, 1L in the fuel tank clean, do you think it could help at least get rid of the fault, then the cars going, seems it's gonna be nothing but trouble. Thanks for any advice.

@@markdamms5287 unfortunately mark the only way to fix the carbon buildup is to remove the intake manifold & clean both the ports & manifold. It actually sounds like a very good car with very low mileage, just spend a few hundred quid & get it sorted. Then drive it for a few years 🤔🤔

@markdamms5287 Жыл бұрын

@Kennedy’s garage cheers, I hear what you say, but if it's clogged up after only 20k miles, then how long before it's clogged again. Only had it 15 months, had 16k on when I bought it from a dealer (cars without the faf !!) with warranty, SCBS problems started within days, so in warranty, but because Mazda have failed for so long to diagnose it, they're saying its top long now, so declined the repair !!! Ombudsman have taken it up. Hopefully, they'll come down on my side 🙏

@@markdamms5287 small miles would possibly mean a lot of idling in traffic that could cause quite a bit of carbon. It is definitely worth a look anyway due to the manifold being easy enough to remove & fingers crossed it will be covered 🤞🤞🤞

I did replace the EGR heat exchanger/cooler. Apologies it though I showed that. The one I got from the dealer is stainless steel from original. The cause of this problem was the engine heat seized from lack of coolant, would any type of piston stand up to this kind of heat 🤔🤔🤔

My ford ranger 2.2 Spacecab had overheating issues, so I fixed everything. I eventually started the vehicle. While the vehicle was staring my mechanic went and opening the fuel nut to see if there was fuel flowing into the engine, he removed each nut from the first injector nozzle to and close it when there was fuel shooting out but once he reached the third nut from the third injector, the engine starting giving off a knocking sound. So, when we tried to start it again it started but the knocking sound came on again and then the engine went off. I checked the Fuel chord to see if the fuel was affected so while bleeding it there was a lot of bubbles in the diesel fuel. So, now when I start the vehicle, it just cranks, with the knocking sound but can not start and there is still bubbles in the fuel. Can anyone please help me on how I can solve this issue. Thanks.

The best & fastest advice I can give is to tow start it. This will overcome any fuel related issues after a few hundred yards. Once it is up and running then you can try to figure out where the noise is coming from, watch the oil light in the cluster, the are known for the oil pump failing🤞🤞👍 Let me know how you get on

@@kennedysgarage3281 We found the fault. Actually it was not a fuel issue, we opened the cam chamber (where the cam shafts are) and saw that all the rudder wheels are all broken also the right side cam shaft was a bit bent. Also the top head camshaft chamber side was cracked. I just bought a new rudder wheel and a new right hand cam and installed the housing and everything and tried manually spinning the engine but it couldn't spin freely. Do you think there is an underlining fault inside the engine head the engine head itself?

@@kennedysgarage3281 actually not the fuel problem ahah it's just due to the push rod damage. The push rod wheels came off and bumped the spinning cam then it broke the cam cage. So, I ended up buying a second hand cam cage, a new intake cam, and also brought the cylinder head to a machine shop and they did oil clearance on the cylinder and also the cam cage now both cam shafts are spinning well when fitted. So, fingers crossed when I install everything back on, the car runs again. Such a costly exercise.
