Transit custom timing chain change

Postby Artiglio » Tue Apr 15, 2025 10:53 am

Good day

2.2 tdci DRFF engine, 150k and a rattly timing chain. From other threads on here i’ve got an ultraparts kit. Whilst confident i can do the actual work, i’ll need a decent guide on what to actually do and in what order, Haynes don’t have a manual that covers this engine. Any suggestions as to where i can find a decent guide? Plus any pitfalls to be aware of whilst doing this?

Many thanks

I'm currently doing the chain on my 2.2 this guy on YouTube has a full rebuild video (engine out) this may help you. If it's not the right engine apologies

There's a good write up on here. Just look for it. It's easy - use a proper lock pin for flywheel.

Cheers Gents,

I’m stuggling to find the thread referred to, a search for “chain replacement” throws up 567 matches, found some good bits regarding flywheel timing and the deeper slot, but not an overall chain change. Any suggestions as to a better search term
