Meant to say, my old Mk1 Mondeo V6 leaked oil, I got a crank shaft kit from the USA, consisted of a very thin metal sleeve and tool to fit it over the original crank shaft, no more grove and no more leaks. Now my ST220 is leaking. Bloody Ford's!!!

Definitely the Mrs Santa for Mrs Monika! 👍 😂 I thought the use of your credit card on the rear crank oil seal was awesome idea! It worked really well! 👍 Regards the ST brake caliper, I can't believe the cast was so far out! Good bit of fabrication though, bet the owner was chuffed. Me and the misses did smile when you found the exact bell housing bolt from a mrk 5 Mondeo, you'd chucked away cos too difficult to put back in! I've been there on my lads BMW 330d! At least the gearbox is lighter! 😂 Great vid, looking forward to the fly wheel, clutch, gearbox refit! 👍

If you do not have the proper pins for lining up the sun frame then spray paint the join to the body with light coloured paint. That way when you put the frame back on you can libe it up to where it was (I speak from experience and it works a treat).

First time I have to disagree with the work done ST220 customer car as I recall, only one brake cable replaced both should be done due to the amount of work involved, dropping the heat shield, the brake caliper I would refuse to bodge it like that, but thats just me, you washed the engine down after fitting the new seal, would have done that before fitting it, episode 1 there was 10 minute of nothing before you got round to doing something, mostly interesting your work is a welcome distraction thanks for the effort you put in recording, editing, and putting out for us to watch.

It is not recommended to grind aluminium as it clogs the wheel, if you really have to then use a course wheel :) The easy way to remove that oil seal without damaging surfaces is to drive a self scrapping chew into it and use a claw hammer to pull it out :) The difference between a plastic and a metal impeller on a water pump is of importance if it is driven by the cam belt, if the coolant freezes solid and you try starting the engine then a plastic impeller will beak up and allow the engine to turn, with a metal one the cam belt snaps !

if you can spray wd40 or some kind of penetrating oil through the chassis onto the bolt threads and leave for a few days may help, otherwise just go for it and hope they come out, worst case you will need to cut open the chassis to get a spanner on the captive nuts
