    The cams are probably designed that way to save the vavles and pistons in this situation, being used to cast cams I would be scratching my head if I didnt know! you learn something every day! great content always grab a beer and sit down for the next installment keep up the good work and keep on making a few bob all the best Paul

    In all my years I thought that all camshafts were a single cast, today I've learned something new, a big reason I'm a petrolhead because there's always something new to learn. The knowledge you guys have is impressive, I've been out of the trade for a lot of years now and these videos really bring that home to me.

  • @iainmacleod4007
    @iainmacleod4007 Před 2 lety +3

    I learned something new today about how modern camshafts are assembled. I always thought that they were machined from solid. I think that the belt with the stripped teeth ended up in the bin. Your joint experience at fault finding is second to none. Hope the valves are ok, signs are good in this case.

  • @stevewhite1444
    @stevewhite1444 Před 2 lety +3

    Love each time Chris shows things like he did with the cam, just shows that manufacturing changes and that the lobes can be moved. Could have a good van there, possibly the belt was stripped when the pump seized, I reckon that’s the new belt the garage tried on it when they had it. Great job guys as always 👍

    I never knew cam lobes scould move like that, I thought they were all solid like the replacement, never stop learning watching you guys. It could be that the Garage ordered up a new belt, got the old one off, noticed the waterpump goosed and belt teeth missing, sent the old belt to Turkey. Threw the mount back on and threw the new belt in the cab

    It never ceases to amaze me the gems that are revealed when repairing these modern engines, I like many other thought that cams were milled from solid billets. When you did the transit and delved into the depths of that engine to reveal a wet belt drive to the oil pump! Your videos are are a treasure trove to the guys who do their own servicing and also repair vehicles. It is also alarming to know how many unscrupulous operators there are out there who bodge up vehicles up to make a fast buck. Twin loading doors, auto, and in great nick - Bring it on 😎 Merry Christmas guys 🌲🥂

    Looks like you got a great van there and a relatively quick fix.

    Hey Rob, another great video and a really interesting content, I never knew there were cams that the lobes moved, my experiences are with cast cams so solid, I guess every days a school day! Thinking about it though it’s likely saved the engine by taking the force from the valve stem onto the cam lobe instead of bending the valve into the piston.
    It seems as though someone has brought a new cam belt by what we saw you had In the footwell, but as the water pump hasn’t been changed it’s seems unlikely it was fitted.
    As always thank you to you both for your excellent episodes. Dave.
