Hi guys
New to the forum
Thought I’d ask you guys for a bit of help regarding my Transit connect belt failure
It’s a 62 plate 75 bhp 1753cc tdci connect with dpf I believe
90k on the clock
Ok so last week clatter bang wallop!!
Had a fair idea what had happened So do recovery home and started stripping down engine
Etc and as expected wet belt had let go! 90k on the clock not due for 30k! Crazy
Anyway first inspection
2 bent valves That I can see, broken cam (5 bits) and a few tappets broke and 2 piston tops badly damaged
With the other 2 with “slight” indentations
Ok so do I buy the repair parts to fix own engine?
If so what do i need and where is cheapest to buy?
or just get a second hand from the scrappy
Reasons for asking
Connect engines seem to be more expensive than say a focus engine or mondeo etc
So can I buy a different ford model engine, say a focus or mondeo or smax etc?
If so what should I be looking for
Models
Years
Engine codes
Where do I find these Engine codes On said engines ?
Cheers guys for any help
