UK. Aug 23, 2012. #18. It's worth changing the cam belt every 4 to 5 years reguardless of mileage. I have had two mates who's cam belt snapped, the result is knacked engine. On a 07 plate, its about the right time to change now plus changing the water pump at the same will also safe you money in the long run. J.
The timing belt tensioner is a common problem on the 1.2 8v engines in both the MK1 punto and the MK2. Signs of a failing tensioner is a grinding, whirring, squeaking or screeching (in very bad cases) noise coming from under the plastic cover on the drivers side of the engine.
Ford Model: Hyundai ioniq milk float. Ford Year: 2020. UK/Ireland Location: Worcestershire. Posted February 7, 2018. most up to date (today)recommended interval for all duratec 16v variants from 2008-2012 is. Camshaft drive belt - Every 100 000 miles/8 years - Renew (LTS 21 304 9)
Any hoot! My punto's done about 50k miles now. It's an 03 plate 1.2 8v punto active. I've done a minor service on it in the past (oil change, and filters change), i've only owned it for a year now. However now I'm considering renewing the timing belt.
Metropolitan areas usually mean higher costs, too. Belts themselves aren’t that expensive. The real cost is in the labor, because a lot of parts need to be disassembled to get to the belt
Place the Fiat Punto on stands, and depending on your engine you may possibly have to remove a wheel. Remove the timing gearboxes. . To do this, you must buy the timing kit so that all the engine elements remain in the right position, in any other case your engine will break. Remove the other elements that bother you (damper pulley for example).
The 1.8 HGT is the only engine in the mk2 that uses locking cam caps (being derived from the Alfa Twin Spark engine), the 8v's need nothing and the 1.2/1.4 16v needs the cam locking peg (one is enough), 2 rods and pulley tool, plus the tensioner tool. Cyl 1 on downward (firing) stroke BTW.
