Under Piston Oil Jets

Postby Dwayneology on Tue Aug 28, 2007 5:31 pm

i've been reading the zetec tuning guide and seen to tune the 1.8 105 ps engines dont have the under pistion oil jets

i've just bought a mondeo 2.0l 136 ps series 1 zetec would this have the under piston jets and could i remove them or are they connected to the pistons themselves

cheers Darrell

Tuning

On the section on tuning the 1.8 zetec 105 ps it says to prolong the life of the engine

is this true or will it not make a difference???

The 105hp doesn't have them. I would have thought to prolong the life you should get them installed.
Those that can, do; and those that can't, talk about it.

they are cooling jets mate, mainly there to aid cooling of the piston, and at the same time lube it more too.
if there on it, leave it, if it aint broke dont fix it :lol:
