Anti lag valve as it looks different to the Mountune one and a std ISCV Apparently Grp A

 

...dont all rush in

Even if you dont know,call me a cock or something

 

COCK!

 

cock

 

...ok chaps that was a joke

 

And theres me thinking this thread would go to 12 pages now Phil

 

BTW that actually looks like a standard ISCV to me

 

Cock Jockey!

 

Doug, I forgot! Ford made a Puma 1.6.... so

 

defo different from std, as the rod doesn't normal stick out that far (i think)

 

...the mountune picture of a std one looks different????

Have i been conned on EBay for the first time?..LOL

 

OH yes, thanks Lee, I did some research and you are correct - the 1.6 did replace the 1.4 model.........to me it just seemed strange Ford offering the car in 1.6 & 1.7 engine versions

 

The 1.7 was a totally different engine though wasnt it? ie a yahama engine?

 

Maybe the only difference is the spring (i.e. spring rate) thats fitted

 

anyone else?

 

have a look at this

not sure what the mods are to make it into an anti lag valve, but yours doesn't have the end piece with the O-ring

Phil,
That is the nasty one that has been mentioned in other posts where if the screw comes loose it drops into the engine . I would not fit this to my car if I was you (for the above reason). It is not a Mountune item.

I could have had your standard ISCV modded for Ł60 and that would have been ultra reliable and flown enough air for mild ALS.

 

E-Bay strikes again....

TBH Phil with all the knolagable peeps on here (like Mike R etc) you should post/ask on PassionFord BEFORE bidding for these so called bargains........lesson learned I suppose

 

All the shortblock zetec-s/se were developed by yamaha 1.25 1.4 1.6 and 1.7

The 1.7 is different in so much as it has discrete vct on the ehxaust valves and a better intake manifold

 

The one i had, the mountune one, its totaly different in operation to the standard one, and looks nothing like that one either.

Its just one giant valve going up and down, wheras the standard one is a small piston that moves up and down in a casing.

 

....as Tim Finch said in my other thread just use a suitable locktite and problem solved....Far more to worry about than the nut coming loose if correctly installed!

 

...incidentally what is the nut and thread for...it looks like it is adjustable????

 

Not worth risking imo get a properly modded one and sell the eBay one.

 

Yes but using locktite would mean you have just as much chance as a cam nut going loose and causing damage!....Its fine!...and to be extra sure i will check it every now and again!

 

Fair play
