Hi all,
Midway through a cam belt (timing belt) change on my 2016 Bus. I am using a kit from TPUK which looks OK but does not include a new sump (2011593), or crankshaft bolt (2011524). I have sourced these from Ford direct (via eBay) as well as the two new Auxiliary drive belts. Main (2361304) and stretch belt for the water pump (2018353). I hope I've got all those part number correct!
The Haynes manual also says the large nut/bolt retaining the centre of the timing cover should also be replaced as a matter of course. This part is a hollow bolt that has, what looks like, a bleed screw plugging the hole.
1. Anyone know the part number for this?
2. What is it for? why a bleed screw and should I bleed it!
3. Why should it be renewed as a matter of course? what's wrong with re-using it?
Thanks for reading
