Great tutorial......very clear and precise......and some great tips... well done...👍🏼
seeing the bolt bring back happy memory's for doing transit timing belts with drill bits
Nicely done there Dave , attention to detail on every job , your customers are lucky to have someone who is proud of his work and cares about the job in hand 💪💪💪💪💪👍👍👍👍👍
Thanks for the tips & tricks Dave sounds 100% better, job well done!
Really thorough video, professional work, as it should be done - thanks for sharing
Back in the day 45 plus years ago in the trade there was a saying “ a fiat worse than death “seriously joking aside, this was a gold mine of tips.
Great video Dave well documented I learn a lot watching your videos 👍👏
Thanks 👍
brilliant job dave just love the videos keep up the good work
Thanks 👍
Very good video with just the right amount of editing
( nothing worse sometimes than 3 solid minutes of someone tightening M6 bolts lol )
Iv a Fiat the same here to do an oil pump on that the owner provided after having his fault codes read “low oil pressure” and as it happens the plastic lining on the chain tensioner was in pieces in the bottom of the sump (large pieces not blocking the pick up)
Anyway the information in your video here has been invaluable to me thanks very much for taking the time to document this in just the right way liked + subscribed mate 👍🏻
agghhh the good old super scraper glad it's still working well for you Dave... Poppy's getting BIG !
boutye johnny. aye great wee tool cheers
Excellent,thanks
2 great videos there Dave nice work 👍
Thanks 👍
Good job 👍
Makes good sense 👍
Brill vid Dave. Just what I needed. Attempting to repair corsa d 1.3 engine, clattering very similar. Gonna drop crankshaft out for re grind and oversize bearings, I thought egr was goosed also, but now thinking the timing will be out as well. A vid on how to install a crank would be top drawer. I’ve locked top cams up and marked flywheel / case for reinstall. Fingers crossed. 😊 thanks for your assist.
Currently have an A13DT on its way to me with an engine knock. If it turns out needing a crank I might do one
You have a really high standard of work. I sometimes think when I am working, how would Dave do this, you also explain what you do really well too. you promote good work. Cheers
That's a big compliment Matt, cheers
Some nice tips there Dave, I have done a video on one of these engines around 12 months ago and totally forgot that the crank bolt was anti-clockwise thread 😬
I’m delighted to see you carry a few beer crates as part of your specialised motor vehicle repair equipment 😂😂😂
Yes Peter, couldn't do without the beer crates. Use them often, mainly just for standing on
@@davesterl l do the same Dave with Jeep’s and other high vehicles. Handy yokes 😂😂
Got a link for the lever that screwed onto the injector? Good to break it away before extracting. Cheers
Hello, did you have difficulty removing the 4 screws from the engine mount? because it is narrow between the chain case and the bodywork.
Thanks for a great guide and great tips. It made me decide to never buy a FIAT..... single over head cams, are so much easier.
Quality job. What was the sump like? On my daughter’s 2012 Punto it was like Swiss cheese with corrosion!
Trying to do this job on a 2014 Panda but cannot remove the rh engine mounting bracket from the engine, not enough clearance to the chassis leg, can anyone tell me what the knack is to remove it?

Fiat 500L Part 1 Removing Injectors th-cam.com/video/pNTXMmS1_NE/w-d-xo.html
The injectors leaking in an inherent problem with injectors in general on diesels, and the timing chain issues are problematic to a greater or lesser degree with engines with timing chains. That said this Fiat / GM engine generally fairs well with timing chains if the oil is changed are frequently.
I've recently done this job (and a lot more) on a Panda 1.3 diesel. The timing chain had 120,000 and a chain link fractured (as they do). There was no nasty noise before it failed. BUT the inlet manifold and ports were rammed with soot so it became an engine out job done slowly in spare time. I took it right down and fitted new piston rings, rockers, lifters and turbo core. Two rockers were broken, another had failed needle rollers. The lifters were worn. Valves were all good.
The cam connecting gears are huge spur gears. I did not remove mine from the cover - bearings and cam lobes were good etc. I believe the cam gears ARE KEYED on place It makes sense, because timing the cams without would be horrible. If one is spinning free there are some really bad things going on. Fiat are very clear that NO TORQUE be applied to the exhaust cam while removing and fitting the sprocket.
The cam chain is the most weedy ineffectual thing you've ever seen. I believe it should have been a twin row chain but Fiat left it too late to change the design. I also believe without GM, it would have been a timing belt. That's what Fiat uses on every other engine in their FIRE family.
There's no point worrying about the timing miss-match because both cam and crank sprockets are replaced. I locked the crank with a bar bolted to the harmonic wheel hub. That gave me a VERY hard resistance to shift the LH thread Torx bolt. Pull off oil pump and all the timing gear. Timing settings are lost anyway but you can fit the crank and cam lock tools when the time is right.
The cam bolt is torqued using a back-holding tool to avoid excessive force on the cams and chain. I did mine before fitting the lock. The crank centre bolt was done with the crank and cam locks in place. I relied on the M8 locking bolt as Fiat instructions say. Also replace the centre "flange" as it gets worn by the oil seal. Fiat part 73500417. Some kits have one. Mine did not.
I can confirm the rearmost cam gears on the 1.9 version of this engine are certaintly not keyed, from personal experience
I don't believe they are keyed. I'm nearly sure they are both "floating" for more precise timing adjustment. And torqued to 150Nm? same as the chain sprocket whatever Nm that is can't remember off the top of my head.
Also it looks deceiving but there is no exhaust cam. Both cams do both inlet and exhaust as the valves are paired front-back instead of inlet valves all in one row and exhaust in another.
😃👍👍
Stupid question to ask but how did you counter hold the camshaft for losing and tightening of the cam shaft sprocket
With the counterhold, as shown on tbe crank bolt
@@davesterl thank you for the reply just wasnt sure but if I taught about it its plenty explanatory 🤣
Excellent video Dave. Please may I ask, as I'm new to your channel, you say all proceeds go to Poppy. Who is Poppy?
Btw, do you want my Alfa 1.4 multiair timing belt job?
Poppy is the wee girl at the end of the videos and no
@@davesterl lol, you not like Alfa then?
Thanks for the reply.
don't recall saying that
All nightmare jobs ,,well done
Crank bolts hate them skinned knuckles and pain.😡
