Technical 2.0 jtd cambelt cover!

[Ronnie63]

Hi guys, I. trying to replace the hp pump on my Ducato, fell at the first hurdle! For the life of me I can't

get the top cover of the cambelt out! There is a stainless steel pipe that runs past the cover on it's way to the turbo, this looks a pig to remove! I've tried every which way to wiggle the cover out but no chance!

Anyone done this job before give me any tips please?

Thanks Ronnie

This is a picture from ebay showing the pipe

I am not familiar with the 2.0jtd, but it is covered by my copy of eLearn.
I have had a quick look, and it seems to suggest that the timing belt cover is in five sections, and that the top section is not the the first to be removed. It confirms that the stainless steel EGR feed pipe will have to be removed.

I am attaching a pdf copy of the relevant pages.

Thanks very much for this, it confirms what I thought about the egr pipe.

On mine it's the same but the clamps are crimped on to the egr valve, I would need to break one off and find a bolted replacement. The funny thing is I had the belt changed by a local garage I guess he must of had to remove the pipe also but not sure how he done it.

Thanks Ronnie

Right things have gone wrong!

Firstly one of the 2 egr bolts snapped! So decided not to continue, put everything back together, had taken the battery neg terminal off to remove the starter motor, no other electrics were touched, now it won't start! cranks over fine but won't fire. I noticed the key symbol on dash is not coming on at all? it would before briefly light then go out? I'm thinking it's to do with removing the battery?

Maybe I should start another thread?

Feeling really deflated now!

Thanks Ronnie

Panic over! I noticed the hazard lights were not working so I checked the fuse, it was blown, replacing this fuse brought the key symbol back and now it starts? This fuse is labeled hazard and stop lights, weird!

Ronnie,

I have had a niggling thought for the last couple of days, and I understand that you have yet to change the HP pump.

Please see the attached pdf from eLearn. The recommendation is that HP pipes from pump to gallery, and to the injectors are not reused.

Thanks for that, I had a feeling that was the case, it was the same for vauxhall.

I'm torturing myself if it is the hp pump or not! All else apart from turbo has been ruled out. I noticed it has a tad too much oil on the dipstick and some kind of sensor on the sump has been unplugged, although the oil light goes out on startup I'm not sure how that sensor works? level sensor? Too much oil to cover the small end noise on crank! Oh dear my mind is working overtime!

I'm going to have to find someone to do the pump, the only garage I used let me down doing the timing belt on this and not looking into the whirring noise even though I told him about it! Would have been cheaper to do it whilst he was doing the waterpump and timing kit!

Thanks Ronnie
