WAYNE1 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 i have a mk 2 mondeo, 1.8 R reg and was wondering if a mk1 mondeo 2.0ltr N reg would fit in without changing anything ,has my timing belt tensioner shatterd and bent 2 valves that i know of so far, , or if i took the head off and chaged the valved would i have to get the head skimmed, aswell, or could i get away with just putting a new gasket set on. ????? can anybody give me advice on this please thanx wayne Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottg17 Posted March 23, 2009 Share Posted March 23, 2009 i wunna say so to skimming,,, maybe just take a thou off just to clean the surface.. but i replaced a valve on a 1.6 zetec in my old escort... just give the head and block mating surfaces a good clean with a plastic scraper and wirewool for the head and you can use emer paper for the block but just so the surface is clean thats what i done and there has been no issue Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WAYNE1 Posted March 23, 2009 Author Share Posted March 23, 2009 cheers scott i might just try that, aslong as its the cheapest way to get my car back on the road, fcuking timing belts & tensioners, cause sum serious damage, . only had the car a month n this happens yet again same as last car, ggrgrgrgrgrgrgrgrg Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
