Everyone’s shook with doing a Cambelt 😂

Debatable 😅

i hope this is sarcasm hahaha

There's a reason why they are nick named the ecoboom. If your a mechanic then you know its one of the worst engines in modern times.

you know nothing about cars, Been working a mechanic for 35 years and that engine is the pitts.

@@leeiverson145 and i think you know nothing about sarcasm lmao lighten up lad

I’d keep this in mind if I get codes on my next one

@@themarvelousvlog hopefully you won’t, But it does happen. Also found that the laser tool we used didn’t fit as well as the eBay special I bought afterwards when lining up the crank pulley

It may be the easier way to do it, I think… 😂

If we have enough jobs booked your area, we definitely will

Thank you!

It’s stupid really but had to go back to basics 😂

1.5dci is fairly easy to do. Just need the correct timing tools to set it up and you should be good!

100%! ‘You’re paying for the name’- not really…

I am yet to do a wet belt. I might buy a dead engine just to play with it

Ford redesigned the ecoboost in 2020 (?) At least the ecoboost that had a wet timing belt, Back to a chain (atleast for the timing belt,not sure about the water pump) you can tell the difference by looking for the turbo. If its at the front it's a wet belt, if it's at the back it's a chain.

​@themarvelousvlog they are crap to do. So much to take off, takes most of the day to do them and you need a 5x torque multipler for the crank bolt. The psa 1.2 turbo is a much easier wetbelt to do

That’s cringe hahah! Give you a shout for being cheap and cheerful haha!

Use the tools provided. To check timing. If timing is incorrect, refit the tools and check again

@@themarvelousvlog thanks, might be silly question but do places like GFS & Euro car parts sell timing tools? Or online only?

@DrivenByGeorgeJexter they do, yes

@@themarvelousvlog lovely

Gunny the Milwaukee… I’m joking! You’ve got to use flywheel locking tool by removing the starter. That way you can torque the flywheel without turning the crank

@@themarvelousvlog 🤣 you can also get a flat blade in just above the os driveshaft small gap to the ring gear then get the gun on 💪🤣

Checked, all good on that end

It is the pcv that is part off the roker cover

Yes it is

I am yet to do one. I’ve been avoiding them at all cost 😂 Might get myself an EcoBlue van to practice on

@@themarvelousvlogtransit ecoblue quite a nice job - 1.0 litre eco boost are the nightmare ones. I too am yet to do one, but there are lots of videos about to help. One guy doesn’t use any special tools which is probably how I would do it, old fashioned painted timing marks and maybe the usual crank locking pin as long as you don’t have to loosen cam pulleys. Crank pulley bolt very very tight apparently!

They’re easy to work on, I can’t lie

A little background about me- I’m an aeronautical engineer who hates working in front of a desk all day, designing and calculating things, hence why I’m here chasing my passion and became a business man and a mechanic. One thing that I can say is that fluid dynamics (area that I focused on the most as a student) is very complicated and isn’t as simple as it seems. It may be true that you’re ALSO paying some for the name but just remember, meeting a specification is the BARE MINIMUM. Now, all the additives and extra liquid engineering that ‘expensive’ companies have done to stabilise the oil, I’d say, is superior compared to cheaper companies like drivetec. That being said, as long as you change your oil often, it should be fine but if you’re taking your service all the way to manufacturer’s recommended interval of 20,000mi (on some vehicles), I wouldn’t trust cheaper companies to last that long!

​@@themarvelousvlogthanks for clearing that up! Was wondering why you had sarcastic comments about the oil in the video! Just out of curiosity what oils would you recommend? I've heard Petronas syntium is a fairly good budget friendly oil.. and you'd like to think Petronas having formula 1 ties would be good... 🤷🏻‍♂️ I tend to buy Castrol but a lot of people have been making complaints about them recently..

@jack.crv-R I don’t think Petronas is the same as before. In my opinion, they have totally lost touch. Shell/Castrol/Mobile for me

@@themarvelousvlog perfect! Thanks for the knowledge 👌 feel like I can take your word for it considering the message above with your background! Going to be doing an oil and coolant change myself next week so will carry on with the Castrol and not try the Petronas.
