Ford Focus - Video tutorial

Model: Ford Focus MK 2, Focus 2 - Years 2004-2011
Part: Engine
Operation: Replacement of gasket and car joints

The gaskets are static sealing elements which are interposed between the flat surfaces of two parts joined together to prevent the passage of liquids or gases. Usually, overheating is the main cause of seal and joint wear. During the disassembly phase, the position of the various parts must be remembered. Once free from the various components, it is possible to extract the cylinder head valve cover and thus see the camshaft and the timing belt. The toothed belt and the engine block have two clearly visible reference notches, so before removing the belt it will be necessary that the two notches match perfectly. Care must be taken when tightening the cylinder head, with the new gasket, to the cylinder base. With a torque wrench you can tighten the screws with the right torque value.
