The more i hear that the 'gingercators' make this car what it is the more i want to keep them

need to do a few more things for the car :) just subtle modifications... under the bonnet there will be a new intercooler front mounted instead of top mounted as it is just now... think its about 70bhp... but been told the engine can whack 110bhp.....

but i am inlove with this car.... :)

BAD NEWS FOR THE RSTD

Postby Mick_RS on Sun Aug 05, 2012 8:59 pm

Took a spin out and about my town, driving along ..... next minute a bang more of a snap, and a chokin noise... stopped ... tried to turn back over... sounded like a starter

towed the car up the road, and closer inspection

TIMING BELT HAS SNAPPED!

1.8 TD ENDURA

could anyone give me help and advice as to what i could do ? replace belt? or any bent valves? or replace engine?

thanks

Until you strip the engine You won't know the damage. If your lucky, and I mean very lucky you might get away with a new belt, sadly that rarely occurs. A new engine shouldn't be too much though tbh, and would be the cheapest option just make sure the replacement has a new belt and is a good one. Hope its good luck for you in fixing it bud...

cheapest is likely find a new head, but thats easier said than done

get the head off and inspect the valves mate

I think those diesel engines have 2 timing belts
You may be lucky and only replace a few valves.

More than likely you will be replacing the engine cheaper than fixing the one in there.

Btw very nice looking fiesta
