As previously stated, Thank you sooo much for posting this video. Well thought out and very well explained! My stepson’s 2011 Focus has stripped the teeth on what’s possibly the original belt with 130K on it! He was told by the garage he bought it from (now out of warranty) that they were certain the belt had been replaced but had no service history to back it up. I too was preparing to pull the head off.

I’ve repaired alot of these 8 valve Diesel engines now with the cambelts losing their teeth, due to them not being changed, Causing the destruction, needle bearings and rockers smashed to pieces in the head. I’ve also removed the sump to clean out any of the smashed rockers from the bottom of the engine. 9 times out of 10 it’s just a cambelt kit, new rockers and a camshaft. Unfortunately if you’re unlucky sometimes it can pop a valve spring off and bend a valve or valves. Then It’s head off, more pain and money! in my experience the rockers should be changed with the cam shaft with the possibility they could be stressed or fractured due to the contact of the cam spinning on the lobes, sometimes the fractures can’t been seen by the human eye, good video… of how to repair this..,

Hello thank you for the kind video.. I'm going to do this as I bought a car where they changed the rockers not the cam shaft and when cranking it sounds as if the valves are opening at the wrong times.. I am suspecting a spun lobe on camshaft not opening valves at right time as I have old broken rockers but can see the old camshaft is still there and hasn't been replaced so worth buying a new shaft before buying a engine. My question is.. How would I go about timing the top end ones taking the cam out. I can see the bottom has the pin going through it.. Do you by any chance have a diagram for the top cam marks? Thank you for the help.

The top crank will just need setting to the sprocket, If you watch the video you can see how I re-time the cam and sprocket.

Are these engines not interference fit? If so it's a miracle it didn't smash the valves and wreck the pistons being that far out of time
@Chris_CDB

Yes these are interference engines, and as I say in the video you would unusually expect the rockers to be broken/ cracked. However I’m this case it seemed to of stripped the belt on cranking to start so the damage was minimal!
@drdebs3908

My understanding is that because the valves are vertical and the rockers/camshaft designed in such a way they can fail first this minimises the chance of bending a valve

Silly question - How did you know the crank was timed correctly? i know you have the locking tool in, but isnt it two rotations for every one at the top? genuine question as have this job to do :(
@Chris_CDB
Жыл бұрын
It is ONE rotation of the CRANK to TWO rotations of the CAM, so 1 rotation of bottom end will turn over cam 2 times. Once the locking tool is in you will be in the timed position for the bottom end ONLY.

Ideally you will want to drain oil, remove sump and remove any debris, you will likely be missing needle bearings from the rockers that will of probably made there way into the sump.

@@MechanicBundy you will need to strip it down to the point where you can see the valve springs, (about 8.40 point in the vid), and if all the valve springs are still in place it hasn’t dropped a valve, if any of the springs are loose then it most likely has. If you refer to one of my other videos about what you don’t want to see my other video about the 1.6 hdi cambelt failure And that will show you what you don’t want to be seeing when you pull it.
