I hope so, some comments still think there’s big issues but in all honesty, now, it’s running much better than it did at first. The exhaust is awful mind 😂

@richie674 Год назад

As commented on your last video , mine ran rough for about 10 minutes but after switching off & back on it disappeared & back to normal . I’ve know idea why mine ran rough at first start up with rattles but after a switch off then back on it went. Like yourself I’m not a trained mechanic by trade either but after 33 years of self taught , I know enough to get by mainly Fords I’ve had . Again very well done , it is stressful I’ve been there but not to this depth only the wet belts & that was bad enough as it to me all week to do it , this has took you a lot longer but super good you’ve done it pal 🎉😅

Brilliant stuff! On a similar journey myself fixing a 2009 Fiesta (though with the DV6 diesel). I was excited for my first switch on, then gutted as it ran really bad. screwed up I think the timing tensioner and will check soon if it's just broken rockers. Will check out some of your other vids, it's nice to find other home mechanics fixing up these Fiestas!

@MK6_Cam Год назад

@@MendItModIt to be fair mate after the intro going over everything that was done to the engine and how big of a job and expensive the job also was it added to it, I had the feeling with my mk6 after i've done big ish jobs like my timing belt and my clutch, its that moment when you find out if everything's gone to plan, this series got me really interested and ill definetly be watching if you have another project going on.

@joshualipshitz6365 Год назад

Congrats dude, you did very well with the build and general completion. Its a bit sketchy but if you don't manage to get a funnel for your fuel cap side, the tire iron works like a charm to get stuff like injector cleaner and so on in when you are in a pinch ;), just make sure its clean.XD

@MendItModIt Год назад

I’ll keep that in mind 😂😂

@charliehall6565 Год назад

Love your content mate, love the fact you give anything a go. I rebuilt my girlfriends MGTF engine recently and it made a similar top end noise for the first half an hour of running. I left it to idle and once it had warmed up and the oil had circulated, the noise was completely gone. These 1.0 engines make make a slight tap anyway on the top end. Mostly due to the common rail gasoline injectors on these engines. I would put some more fresh fuel in and leave it to idle for a while. Obviously keep a close eye on it. You may find it'll sound better after a while. As for the misfire, the ECU may not pick up the misfire straight away, it may well do after idling for a while. Hopefully that will be because of the bad fuel. Remember the bad fuel will take moment to clear through the lines and filter first so eliminate that too ☺️ good luck

@MendItModIt Год назад

Thanks for the info dude. Someone at work suggested it could have hydraulic tappets and they needed to fill with oil but unfortunately they aren’t on these engines. It does run better each time I start it so I think the fuel is helping

@kennypryde4235 Год назад

Great series of videos, I binge watched! If its an aftermarket exhaust and the fuel injection map hasn't been re-mapped to suit, maybe that's causing it to run poorly? Dunno, obviously, I'm less of a mechanic than you!

@jackwigley37 Год назад

Congrats on getting it running! Excited to see it alongside the mk6 :) I was wondering if you know if pre facelift rear tailight bulbs are a direct swap over into facelift ones on the mk6? Found a set local with autobeam LEDs in pfl but wanting to put them into my FL set. Cheers!

@jamesallan5253 Год назад

Well done mate. I work in the trade and bloody hate these (ecobooms we call them). Fair play to you.

@MendItModIt Год назад

@karlkiernan6863 Год назад

The 4 wire plug with a broken wire is a boost and temp sensor or TMAP. There is also a MAP sensor on the intake manifold which only does pressure.

@MendItModIt Год назад

Ahh gotcha, it seemed to sort all the codes out anyway and the engine does run better since, but fresh fuel seems to have made the biggest difference

@themx-5guy708 Год назад

Hey bro! I just found you a few hours ago ans I like your content!! 🤩🤩Have you done a buyers guide for what to look out for on a Fiesta ST MK6? Since I might be into one as my first car (im sadly 16 atm...) and I kinda like the Fiestas look. I also thought about a E46 320i maybe even a 323i since here in germany you can find decent ones for small money but then they have atleast ran 200.000km and dont have much extras

@yourimeeuwisse711 Год назад

You have those codes twice because 2 are pending and 2 are current. The difference being pending codes can be something that is very common and the engine knows this but if de value of the reading exceeds or get below certain level the car needs to know about it so it becomes a current code and it lets you know via a check engine light or something Great work btw👌

@MendItModIt Год назад

Gotcha! That makes sense, thanks for the info my friend 👍🏻

@joseantoniolabera2253 Год назад

Hello, I'm a follower of yours and I've noticed a problem you have, the same thing happened to me with white smoke and it's not from the fuel, it's still due to an injector. I explain a little, the injector may be obstructed, so that it does not work well and leaves it in an open position leaking gasoline. I tried to rebuild it, and it wasn't possible. The smoke you see white in the turbo is the excess gasoline in the combustion chambers. Good work and best regards, I hope my comment will help you.

@Grindhousewatch2007 Год назад

Have you reset the learned values of the Crankshaft and Camshaft sensors?? With diagnostic tool!? Forscan.

@RosskoPeeko Год назад

Brave man taking on the task you did with this. A shit ton of work even for a trained ford mechanic to do. I don’t even think ford would recommend doing this to them. Probably cheaper to just bin the engine and buy a new unit and fit it. Mammoth task though.

@MendItModIt Год назад

Thanks man. It’s definitely worked out cheaper but the things I’ve learned have been far more valuable than what the car or any of the parts cost me if that makes sense 😁

@RosskoPeeko Год назад

@@MendItModIt did you manage to sort out the rough idle? The engine seemed to smooth out when it was revving ? It’s definitely a learning curve and the things you did with no previous experience is amazing. The worst ford engine you could have picked to work on for your first job.

@kenthst 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for a great series of clips, i have done the same journey but pulled bottenpart apart also. Bad decision, no information about torque for conrods, got help from a great website where i bought a lot of my parts kmotorshop. I think Haynes is like a messy book, so hard to find information because they mixed severel different engines in the same manuel. For me all information is found on internet and better informed than haynes. Your clips help med whid a lot of information, i have renovated a lot of engines but this is something else. The engineer that constructed this engine should be banned for any new development. When we talk about sustainability this engine is a extremly bad. I started my engine yesterday after a stuck generator and startermotor but it runs so soft and smooth nowe 😊 Many thanks for great clips and links for parts etc.

@DonnaKent-ll8ii Год назад

Hi mate, Well done for all your hard work and perseverance! Ive watched all your videos and have used them to help me carry out my first ever engine rebuild also on a near on identical Fiesta 1.0 ecoboost! I am at the point of timing it up and all is fine apart from the exhaust VVT pulley, when i go to fit the locking tool with everything else in the correct position and TDC etc the holes of the locking tool do not line up with the exhaust pulley???? Watching your video yours look in identical positions degrees-wise so my questions are 1. Did your exhaust pulley locking tool holes line up? 2. If they didn't do you know how to set this correctly? and 3. HEEEELLLLPPPPP!!! Massive thanks for the vids as Ive been on exactly the same journey over the last 3 months and am so close now, Cheers Pal!!

@shaneleslie8968 Год назад

Great vid. How many miles do you reckon you will get out of the Dayco timing belt? Just wondering if uk is the same as Oz.

@MendItModIt Год назад

As long as oil changes are done regularly with the correct oil for the wet belt, should last as long as it’s supposed to. The wrong oil will degrade the belt. Dayco makes the OE belts for these engines

@abubakrbanaras2396 Год назад

I done a head gasket on the same car. Mine took a long time to start and was running bad. The turbo was smoking as well. Turns out the crankshaft pulley was not timed up with the crankshaft. You need to get the engine to TDC and fit the locking pin in. The crankshaft pulley should have a hole just big enough to fit the second timing pin though the pulley. The pin goes through the pulley just past 12 o clock and goes into the timing case. My one was really far out.

@MendItModIt Год назад

I did use the locking tools when rebuilding mate, turned the engine over and reinstalled the locking tools to check after reassembly and everything was in time 👍🏻 guessing you’ve not seen the previous videos but I appreciate the comment man, thanks 👍🏻

@makifrable Год назад

As for me, I think that the engine just needs to get broken in and the exhaust leaks badly. And after letting it run at idle for 2 hours or 1st gear jacked up for 50 Miles, don't forget to change the oil and replace the filter as all of the gunk from building and breaking in the engine will be collected.

@MendItModIt Год назад

I did wonder this as I’ve heard with some vehicles the ECU has to almost relearn what it’s doing as it runs. Good shout on the oil and that was the plan, need to flush the coolant too thus the deionised water to start. Roughly how many miles before changing the oil do you recommend?
