Specifications
Problem:
The tensioning pulley included in the kit for the type delivered is
diferent to the one installed in the vehicle.
Cause:
According to Ford, the new tensioning pulley must be itted in
all 2.5 diesel engines when the timing belt is due to be changed.
Given the fact that the structure has been changed completely,
clariication is required on how to install or position this correctly.
Solution:
The new type is a semi-automatic tensioning pulley which is
installed centrally in place of the manual tensioner. Following
installation of the timing belt, adjust the tension on the pulley
on the front by turning it in the direction of the arrow using a
hex key. Please note, the semi-circular dot marking must be
correctly aligned with the bottom edge (1) of the recess.
