Salut, Il suffit de chercher des pompes à eau pour volvo 740 TIC ,et on a des offres,on cherche ensuite une image de pompe avec des trous ronds,et pas oblongs comme sur l'autre version. On tombe alors sur une référence chez une marque,et on regarde le numéro OEM (original equipment manufacturer) qui est souvent fourni en dessous pour bien s'assurer de la compatibilité, et on tombe sur ce numéro ,en autre,qui est "VOLVO 271768". On cherche "VOLVO 271768" sur google,et on trouve. Il y a tout plein de kits qui apparaissent en images,et il faut ensuite BIEN s'assurer que c'est une courroie de 122 dents,et de 26.5 de large. Il y a des kits avec la grosse vis de poulie de vilebrequin,ce qui est très bien. Il faut ensuite faire son choix parmi les marques et offres,et son budget.

OK merci beaucoup pour ta réponse rapide et concrète, j'apprécie beaucoup le geste.

Hello, What's your car,what do you want to replace ?

@@michaelovitch Hello! Renault Megane 2002 bridge replacement, you need the article number of the bridge fixing screw and nut.

@@sanya.0007 Go directly at Renault dealership with the VIN number of the car,they will get you that. I don't have the Renault spare parts software.

@@michaelovitch Ok thank you.

Thanks, You can use a spray bottle with water,or some wet cloth.

Great idea, as I am hoping to fit the bearings tomorrow. If the rain decides to stop 😅

@@savinggracechurch4112 It's the same weather here too this afternoon lol

: )

It's a normal bolt,not a reversed thread. They all are on this engine.

Salut, Certainement de 306 ou 206,chez PSA. Je ne comprends pas la deuxième question.

En gros l’essieux le tube rond vous l’avez axer au milieu du châssis ou vous avez axer le l’axe des roues au châssis ?

@@nicolasvitre4390 Je crois comprendre. Le tube est au centre du châssis,mais les roues sont derrière,car elles sont au bout des bras de suspension. les roues sont donc excentrées,oui. Il vaut mieux toujours excentrer les roues un peu ,ça évite à la remorque de se mettre à entrer en résonance et à chasser à droite et à gauche. Il faut une longueur de flèche adéquate aussi. Si j'avais eu un essieu rigide (comme un pont) sans bras de suspension,il aurait fallu reculer le pont un peu et ne pas le mettre au milieu du châssis.

Merci de ta réponse j’ai fixer l’essieux, nickel ! Juste petite question t’es roue sont en 13" ou 14" ?

@@nicolasvitre4390 13" mais il vaut mieux plus grand,les pneus sont plus courants.

Is it irony ? If not,yes,it's a good car to maintain : )

According to an engine oil temperature chart,i'm spot on for the local usual weather. Thin oils used todays are more to reduce engine load than for protecting the engine. Manufacturers tend to reduce engine work for emission purpose,so they can obtain less fuel consumption during testing since the negine has less thick fluid to pump. The wear is mostly during start ups,when you have no oil circulating. so whatever the oil is thin or thick the engine is running without oil for few seconds. I agree that,the thicker it will be,the more time it will take to get it pumped through the engine,particularly in winter. The manual says that you can use from 5w40 to 15w40 weight oil on this car. Next time i will use a 5w40,it's the most common type sold here,but not the cheapest haha. I bought cheap oil not knowing what i was to find out on this engine.

Yes it makes sense,and thank you for the advice,i will try that We didn't damage this hub,the person before us did lol The bearings were replaced already on this car. however i damaged one once.

: )

: )

Salut, Une petite demi journée à une journée selon la voiture.

moi c'est une clio 1 ok merci

1.8 D with a small chassis like this is a good thing, It's a good car,if it was taller inside and more common on the road here,i would have kept it.

I'm happy to read that,thanks : )

It's a 20T but i never used it full pressure on a bearing. I bought this one because it's tall and you can slide the shaft on both sides in case you have a weird hub shape to press a bearing in.

I would buy anything wich is cheap and common,even if it has flaws,specially known flaws that you work with or fix. Generally,simple rough mechanic has more potential or resrve for you to hav fun with. So ,yes i would.

@@michaelovitch I never used to like OHV engines because of how loud many of them sounded but i do now because you're video is proof that they can run fairly quiet and have several advantages over SOHC/DOHC engines. For me the best ever OHV engines was the old Fiat OHV and Renault Cleon Fonte engine. Bulletproof engines

@@jaggass I agree,my grand father had a fiat panda with that engine in it.

Yes, for 1250 € I have a peugeot 206 wich i bought 200€ to replace it.

That's more being picky and justifying their jobs and prices than it's safety related. The rear end bushings attaching the rear end to the car were completly blown up,and they never saw anything until i change them. They can see rust where others don't,or tolerate or not "defects" depending wher you go. It's mostly bullshit to oblige you to come back or not depending on their overal economic situation,local or national. We have motorcycles inspection now,and it's even more subjective inspection,they have nothing to test the bikes,they don't even have driver licences where they test those.

It was mainly in the South of France,where winters are not that rainy and cold,so roads have no salt.

@@michaelovitch Yeah, I figured from the location you had put on the announcement that you put in the ep3.

Thanks. Yes,slowly,but it's coming along.

: )

Il y a un abrasif fourni, c'est de l'Oxyde de cérium. On peut aussi polir avec un nettoyant pour le cuivre.

For now,it's holding up with my big ass,but the foam under did suffer too much,it's deformed,and it hurts the back when you seat crooked. I have bought used seats and will make the best mix of foams and upholstery with the 4 seats. Passengers seats are generally way less used,so i have a good combo coming.

Yes lol

I agree : ) i will,i want to use it one day lol

Bonjour, A priori,pas besoin. Les repères sont sur l'arbre à cames ,la pompe et le moteur sur la poulie. Ici sur un 615 : kzfaq.info/get/bejne/eL6KpJOE3Lqnn6s.htmlsi=-fCyrYbc8lpzCFXF

merci beaucoup michaelovitch c'est sympa de ta part 👍

@@krimocoucou4716 : )

In a hydraulic shop. They sell hydraulic hoses,orings,and whatever is related to hydraulic. You can buy online,or locally if you have a shop wich work on machinery,heavy equipment,tractors etc..

@@michaelovitch thanks.

Be sure that your tires are balanced,and there is no mud on the wheels. Be sure that all wheels are not loose. For your mileage,be sure that you don't have the engine light on. Poor mileage generally comes from a sensor wich is not working anymore. Critical sensors for mileage are the oxygen sensor,coolant temperature sensor,and air temperature sensor. You need to have a working thermostat. Check the color on your spark plugs,they should be very dark since you burn too much fuel.

@@michaelovitch thank you, i will check

Merci bien.

Yes,it was quite molested lol My wallet will win haha

406 are good cars,not many left here,contrary to 206. they were the last kind of classic sedan type.

Why is that ?

@@michaelovitch They were nothing special

Thanks, The dog is cool ,it's the neighbor's dog ,but we know each other quite well. Yes it's blowby,and i think it's too much for 200 000 kms. I just changed the oil,and the thermostat isn't working,so maybe the pistons rings will move a bit more freely when it will operate at its normal temperature and with clean oil. I will give some beans to clean up and pressurize all that lol. I will open the engine anyways later on.

👍💪

Hello, Yes ,water,just to start the engine and clean the block,with dish soap and different flushes. We used coolant once all was verified and ok to use. In Africa,there is very limited risks of freezing the water in the block,and the water has different minerals than in other regions : they can have limited amount of certain minerals,wich can reduce corrosion,compared to elsewhere,here where i live,you have a lot of calcium in my region. In any case,you need to use coolant,wich has anticorrosion,lubricating properties for the water pump seals,and reduced boiling point to prevent overheating. water is good at cooling,allows more heat exchange in a given time,but cause deterioration by corrosion on engines,cavitation around cylinder liners and things like that. Yes,engines are tougher than thoughts,and they are generally given more attention in countries were vehicles have more value ,or a second life,like Africa,even if it's less and less the case and peoples can get newer ,or equivalent to elsewhere. I live in France and i have a 1999 car lol

Thanks : )

Thanks : )

Il y a des lobes dans la pompe, elle ne restera pas exactement dans la position qu'on lui impose. Il faut utiliser une pige ou une douille qui s'insère dans un des trous de la poulie de la pompe ,qui est différent des autres, pour la faire tenir en place. A savoir que ce n'est qu'un calage grossier,il faut ajuster finement le calage avec un comparateur.
