I just used your how to to change my timing belt today in my 2011 Fiesta with 123k miles on it. Definitely a great set of videos. A couple things I noticed that you didn't cover . I used PB blaster in every bolt I was gonna remove a couple days before I started. Seemed to help a good bit. I used a snap on impact and it spun the crank shaft bolt off pretty easy. The crank pulley was stuck on so I used a slide hammer and it popped right off. Without the crank bolt installed, the crank pulley and the timing gear/pulley behind it spin freely. They are not keyed. Freaked me out at first. This is why it's imperative to set your car to TDC before removing the crank bolt. I definitely couldn't have done it without your video. Thank you a million times! Ford dealer quoted me 400+ for labor alone for what I did in 4 hours.
How did you remove the crankshaft pulley bolt given that you are not technically supposed to spin the crankshaft anticlockwise? did you use the strapping tool as recommended by Ford?. Thanks
Nice and easy to follow video. Watched yours and another where they basically do it the same but then watched this other video with two guys and they took half the engine apart to do the same job. Hope others don't watch there's and give up on the idea of doing the job themselves because they made a huge mess of a simple job. Thanks.
yes i watched that one as well and they pulled the driveshaft on the passenger side, (unnecessary). this was a great video and since i was down this far and with my motor at 150000 i changed the water pump so i dont have to do this all over in a few months.
great videos! thank you. too bad i didn't preemptively change my timing belt when i changed my serpentine belt a week ago. today i believe my timing belt either broke or jumped a tooth or a few teeth. you make doing this stuff look easy. and your videos are perfect
great video. I was changing the water pump on my son's 2015 fiesta and noted the horrendous noise I was hearing was from a timing belt tensioner that had allowed the timing belt to slip forward and rub the cover almost in two pieces and wore the belt down to about 1/3 of its original width. by using my air gun was able to get the crankshaft pulley bolt off easily. important to make sure when reinstalling the belt right before torqueing the pulley bolt to spec that the crankshaft is up against the TDC pin since the crankshaft pulley and timing belt gear arent keyed and will spin freely until the bolt is torqued to spec.. by you wedging the screw driver into the teeth of the flywheel you accomplished that goal. thanks so much for your video.
Thanks for taking the time to do a video of this procedure very well done!
instablaster...
Nice job, thank you for taking the time to make this. It will be a handy guide for this job.
Man, what a comprehensive video series. Nice work. If Ford ever tells me I need to replace my timing belt before it's time to sell my car, SCREW THEIR SERVICE DEPT PRICING! I'll try to follow your videos. Thanks!
Thanks. I'm glad I could help.
Chris Redfield I need to do tumming on my ford fiest 2009
This is a very good video man! Thank you so much for taking your time to show how to do a very hard and expensive job Im changing cooling pump and timing belt in my 2012 ford fiesta 1.6 L but don't see any place to lack the flywheel where you pointed in the video there's cover I can't find any place to put a screw driver like you did seems to me like every thing is covered HOW DID YOU LACK THE FLYWHEEL??? Thank you so much
Great video mate and so well explained. I can do this work myself, but now retired in Thailand, so labour cheap at Ford Dealership. Their charge 450 AUD for timing belt and tensioner, replaced water pump and coolant at same time, new serpentine belt. I also had them replace transmission fluid as preventive maintenance. The labour cost in the USA obviously makes it a do-it-yourself option. Pity you can't hire (instead of purchasing) the locking tools for what is basically a one-time job.
The question I have is how did you the crank pulley?
Thanks for making the video i found it extremely helpful
Thank you for explaining so thoroughly to me why I'm paying $550 for this job :^)
I didn't have the tool when I did timing on a ford escape. wish I did its a pain trying to get the tool
Thanks for posting great video! Very helpful and greatly appreciated!!!
Do you have to remove the tdc pin when torquing the crank pulley and with flywheel locking tool installed?
Have you ever replaced a noisey lifter in one of these engines? i need to do one on my wifes car and cant find anything on it.
I'm about to do this on a 2011, is it the same or were there changes anywhere that you know of? Great instructions by the way.
2011-2013 should all be the same.
Serpentine way easier with out all the extra bolts and special tool. Use zip tie walk it right on. Im here for the timing belt portion.
I am just doing the timing belt on my sons 2010 Fiesta WT and this video has been fantastic, way better than anything else on CZcams. I have struck an issue though and if you or someone else can help that would be great. I am trying to install the new tensioner and I cant seem to do it. I try putting the tensioner on first and then putting the belt on but it seems very tight and I don't want to damage the belt. I also tried to put the tensioner on with the belt and it seems impossible, in the space, to get enough purchase to get the bolt in. Please, Please any help would be gratefully accepted.
Sorry for getting to your comment so late. The only help I can give you is to look at the video at 9:55. Just push the two tabs on the tensioner together, put a nail through it to hold it. Install the tensioner before installing the new timing belt. Install new belt then pull the nail/pin out of the tensioner releasing its tension and done.
@@vaultvern7704A 2011 Fiesta 1.6 in mint condition with 109,000 miles on it. Very well maintained everything but the timing belt? I heard you can change them at 150,000? Is that to long?
7:15 Do you have to put piston 1 a few mm below TDC before inserting the TDC Pin? is there a risk of going into TDC exhaust instead of TDC compression?
Thanks for a very nice tutorial :-)
Yes it's best to put the pin in when it's not at tdc. It doesn't matter if it's exhaust or compression tdc as long as the old belt is on as you rotate it. Once the crank hits the pin then throw on the camshaft locking tool, then take the belt off.
How about the oil seal?
Nice video, thanks and will unfortunately be doing this soon.
How much time did it take you to do the job? Not counting the video.
Cannot believe how ford managed to over complicate this timing belt process, flywheel holder? tdc screw? tty crank bolt? obscenely specific cam pulley holder? no taper fit or woodruff key on tbelt crank sprocket? come the fuck on on ford. at least they made the interval 150k. like thats supposed to give me peace of mind!
hola gran vídeo.
podrías por favor especificar el par de apriete o torque del tornillo del volante.
I would be interested in what happend to the timing belt while tightening the crankshaft pulley screw? I did it several times. And if you're going along with the official manual, tightening the cs screw while the timing belt is placed. Then the belt is gonna be stretched because the crankshaft sprocket wheel and pulley wheel is rotating a bit clockwise due to friction. So the belt is overstretched. First I tighten the crankshaft 40Nm 90° and then installing the belt. (Only the TiVCT because the camshaft wheels are fixed and the crankshaft sprocket is without key.) So how did you handle this?
I installed the crankshaft bolt with the belt installed and the tensioner released. I didn't really think of the friction adding tension. I don't have any way of checking actual tension on the belt. I don't think that would be much of an issue. Since the accessory pulley is a friction fit(slightly tapered crankshaft) the friction from the bolt I would think would be much less the pulley to crank surface area. Plus the bolt has a washer that also creates more places to slip. If it does over stress the belt, I would think once you take all the locking tools out the cams would adjust themselves, because they can adjust themselves up to an 1/8th of rotation either way. That's my two cents in, but I'm not a certified mechanic either. I just do this because I enjoy working on my car to save some money. Plus I plan on changing my belt every 50-60K Miles and costs me $130.
VaultVern Well, when I did it the first time on the 1.6 TiVCT - tightening the crankshaft screw (timing belt fitted and tensioner released). I had to stop tightening. Because I noticed that the belt was stretched dangerously. I thought it would rip... It was about 30° and I had to stop. After this I never tried it this way.
And I know the friction issue from the normal 1.25 or 1.4 litre engine without variable camshaft timing. But there it's not a problem because the camshaft spockets are loose. So if the crankshaft screw is gonna be tightened, the belt is rotating a bit clockwise, also. But remeber the loose camshaft sprockets. So it doesn't affect the timing and the tension of the belt.
I never have found a video where the tightening process is shown. Everyone is skipping this part 🙄
So the timing cover screws are even located behind the crankshaft pulley. So on my 2011 I can't remove the cover without removing the crankshaft pulley. Any suggestions?
The pulley has to come off to reach all the 8mm timing cover bolts. Just did this on a 2012 Fiesta 1.6
Could try cutting the bottom cover in two. Bolts will just about come out.
Why do we have to jam the flywheel? to prevent crank from going anticlock?
I think it's to ensure the flywheel does not move anticlockwise while unscrewing the crankshaft pulley bolt. The offical tool to lock the flywheel needs extra work, which you have to remove the starter to be able to install the locking tool.
If you put the the tdc plug in before turning the crankshaft will the engine keep turning until it hits the tdc plug in the correct position?
It should only stop once it's at tdc.
@@vaultvern7704 I'm not 100% sure of that. Factory procedure says to get the timing marks of the cams at 11 o'clock before installing the pin. I didn't actually test this theory, and perhaps that's just to make sure cylinder 1 is on compression stroke, but it's definitely important to get it on compression stroke and not exhaust.
Where did you get your kit from? I cant see. To find any motorcraft kits online
I just checked all the links in the description and they are all still accurate. All the parts I used are in the description.
On my fiesta 2011 1.6 L, I could not get access to the flywheel to lock the crankshaft. Only option is to remove the starter, but it's a pain. Do you think it is possible to torque the pulley bolt against the TDC pin?
I've heard of people bending the pin. I am in the middle of it now and actually bent the crank holding tool so I straightened it and I'm having a muffler shop weld nuts as reinforcement on each side of the tall sliding lock tab.
@@SGaryNinja Thanks. I finished mine yesterday. Impossible to hold the crank pulley with the strap suggested by Ford. I had to come up with some novel ideas. Best of luck with yours
Had to greatly modify the crank locking tool. It totally bent even just applying a little force to break the crank bolt free.
Thanks
Do you torque the crank bolt against the timing pin
No way, you'll bend the pin for sure, then the valves will make contact too.
How were you able to get the TDC pin in there with the driveshaft in the way? It fits without removing drive shaft?
I believe the ST it will not fit.
You skimmed over the only part I was curious about... the crank holder.
Thank you for posting this, I have a 2011 and have followed intently up to 8:48 and no matter how much I have searched I cannot seem to find the exposed flywheel teeth you show, it seems to be covered on the 2011 and I’m warning anyone with the 2011 to check that part out on their car b4 getting all the tools etc (like I did) only to find out that you will have to get a flywheel locking tool which means taking the starter out (a major job on a Fiesta) etc. So just warning that what you see in this video, may not apply to your own car. Signed a very frustrated Fiesta owner.
Good to know. I do have a manual transmission. Guess the housing is shaped different.
Do you think its different for a 2014 fiesta ?
manual or automatic?
Manual
zztoitun If its manual, this video should apply to your car better than it did for me, as the flywheel teeth were not accesable to me as they are in this video at 8:48, but I would check (with a flashlight) on your car 1st
I had the accessory belt split and half of it snap and wrap around the crankshaft pulley on my 2011 Fiesta. I know the timing is off on the car because the engine is not running correctly (significant power drop, very slow to rev up, sounds awful). Following your video and Chilton's manual online, I believe I could replace the timing belt, accessory belt, water pump etc. My problem is that I know the timing is off. Using the camshaft locking tool, and setting the TDC pin, is that all that would be needed to reset the timing?
Also, you mentioned that the engine was an interference engine. I have seen elsewhere that it isn't? To be clear, the timing belt is definitely still on my car, and it still (somewhat, not usable) runs.
Supposed to lock flywheel with a special tool too.
Is this engine 1.25 82hp? any idea how i can recognize the 1.25 60hp with the 1.25 82 hp on a fiesta 2008-2012
regards
This is the 1.6L Sigma Duratec. In the US where they only started selling 6th gen in 2011 and only offer either the 1.6L Duratec Sigma (non TI-VCT) 120HP, (Which is in the vast majority of Fiesta's sold here,) or the 1.0L Fox EcoBoost. (Starting in 2014.) We didn't get the 1.25L or the Diesel options.
how did you remove the crank pulley?
I used a pulley removal tool.
www.amazon.com/dp/B000NPT68Y?ref=emc_b_5_t&th=1
Hit it with an 18mm impact gun to remove the bolt, then wiggle the pulley back and forth and pull till it slides off the crank shaft.
should of done a water pump while u were in there..those things like to leak every 30 to 60k
I plan on doing another belt change at 100k. Hopefully it will last that long. If not no big deal. It wasn't really that hard doing this.
@@vaultvern7704 I would have replaced the crank seal while at it
Be careful. On a 2011 Festiva 1.6L (non EcoBoost, auto trans), the crank holding tool will totally bend on you. I had to weld nuts on the sides to reinforce it, as well as cut 3/8" off each end where it bolts on to be able to slide it to fit correctly. Once I did that, worked perfect. I can't figure how to upload a pic or I would.
You bought the cheap TDC pin and didn’t follow the work shop manual that tells you to install the flywheel holding tool. The pin is only to set TDC, not hold the crank.
I used the flywheel holding tool. That's what bent, not the pin tool. It was cheap for sure though.
@@SGaryNinja holy 💩… I must say that had to suck! Over the the last 4 years I’ve timed about 400 of the 1.5 liter engine, same tools similar procedure, never ran into that. Glad you found a way to make it work.
This is so stupid and ridiculous. They could have put a pin in the crank gear and cam gear and gave people timing marks. They want to design this junk to make it harder for people. Anyway good video.
part number of timing belt please

Please get yourself a deep socket set. Both metric and SAE. If you're serious about DIY auto repairs.

Why not follow instructions?
Dayco belts and gates belts are just as good as factory belts. I've put them on many vehicles and never had an issue. But you're not hurting anything if you wanna spend a few extra dollars for a belt from the dealer.
Couldn't just have timing marks and woodruff keys on cogs, like 95% of other cars. Oh no, have to save 10p whilst forcing most people to take it to the stealers !!
Every small piece costs $80 could easily end up paying $700 in total.
THIMMBS DOWN ONLY BECAUSE YOU DIDNT SHOW THE TOOL USED TO PULL THE DAMPNER(CHEATER BAR WTF)
