2015 Ford Fiesta 1.0 EB Technical info needed.

Featured Replies

Hi all, I'm desperately looking for the head bolt torque settings and the timing chain settings (camshaft position marks).

 

Does anyone here have Autodata or other software to check?

 

I got a new sub assembly, need the info to put it in properly.

 

Many thanks. 🙏



Welcome to the forum Ricky!

The cylinder head bolt torque settings are:

Stage 1: 10 Nm
Stage 2: 40 Nm
Stage 3: Loosen 45°
Stage 4: 30 Nm
Stage 5: 90°
Stage 6: 90°

Tightening sequence is 6, 2, 4, 8 (top row when viewed from the front) and 5, 3, 1, 8 (bottom row).

There's no timing chain - it is belt driven. It has a non-keyed crankshaft and so 'proper' alignment requires the use of bespoke timing tools - a pin to set the crankshaft position and two frames to lock the camshafts. This video shows an aftermarket kit and procedure for use. Gotta love Ford for making jobs ten times as expensive as they need to be.

Edit: Here's another tool set available for the relative bargain of £100.

Are the camshaft pulleys keyed ,

Hey MJ, any chance you would have the torque settings for the Main Bearing and Big End Bearings for the same engine?

I'm afraid I don't have them to hand.

Did you know there's a Haynes manual covering this engine? That might have them in.

No. You will need a special tool to set them up. Look on the eBay.

Yep, you need a special torque multiplier which is very expensive even for aftermarket ones, as mentioned in this thread
