Has anyone ever changed one of these? Ive tried searching on Ford forums etc but no luck! *oh well* I was hoping someone on here could tell me if there is anything to be aware of when changing it?

Cheers

Yep I have, and its an utter cunt, if you thought Minis were difficult to work on, get ready.

Nothing especially technical about it, just access is difficult. After I'd finished it I swore I'd never work on a 1.25 Fiesta again. Unfortunately it belongs to our lass so I have to. Hateful bloody thing.

A few hours, I'm sure a man of your calibre will have it sorted before monday. There is nothing that difficult, its just awkward. Lisas has got air con as well which got in the way. The only good thing is that the cambelt doesn't have to come off if I remember right.

I won't embarrass the poor fellow by letting slip that he had a tidy lass in his bed with him, and when she said to him "I am cold" his thoughts were whether to switch on the central heating, or fetch her a jumper.....

Took 4 hours in total, I thought the cambelt would have to come off at one point...worth it for the brownie points though. *wink*

i did a mazda 2 on a 55 plate which has this engine in and the cambelt tensioner bolted onto the water pump so had to do belt as well.

no longer a series, but still 1.3 turbo.

I have a Renault 2.0HDI timing belt to do, and thought while im at it, i'll do the water pump. Looks like this will be a bit of a bitch too.

Im tied in unfortunately as its the brother in law.

Is it A-Series only? I think it should be...
So when some joey comes on here about how his 16v turbo vauxhall is great compared to ours, he can be given the 'bird'...

It was definitely the pump, there was a horrible bearing grinding noise that has now dissapeared since changing the pump. Lol *wink*

i'd have got her a jumper, far too early for central heating yet.

You should have told her to sit on your bar heater!

If something is worth doing, it's worth doing half of.
