I’ll post the question here, as it relates to the Puma 2.2 engine as fitted to the late Mk7 and early Mk8 Transits:
I’m about the start the process of rebuilding my engine after piston failure.
I’ve acquired a Mk8 factory workshop manual which covers the rebuild process in great depth, but fails at the first hurdle.
It shows the rebuild process commencing with fitting the crankshaft, but omits to mention that first it is necessary to fit the piston control jets (the nozzles which squirt oil at the underside of the pistons).
Each jet is retained by a small set screw with an external (male) torx head.
Given the criticality of the application, and the consequence of failure, I should like to know what Ford specify as the correct thread sealant, and the tightening torque.
Does anyone please have a Ford document which contains this information?
Many thanks in advance...
