New
Generation Diesel Engines 2.0 Eco Blue
This is a completely new architecture of
diesel engines that meets the EURO-6 environmental standards. The main
distinguishing feature is the timing system with a belt in an oil bath, which
is implemented in order to reduce the coefficient of friction,
The new generation of 2.0 Eco Blue diesel
engines reduce emissions and increase engine power accordingly. And also,
for a decrease in friction and an increase in torque, an engine oil with a
viscosity of 0w30, specially designed for modern diesel engines, is taken. Particularly
important is the additive composition of the original Ford 0w30 oil, which
retains the oil bath timing belt. On the 2.0 Eco Blue engine, the oil
change interval was increased to 40,000 km, due to the increased volume of
engine oil up to 10 liters.
Timing belt replacement schedule 200,000
km! But, as the new generation of diesel engines 2.0 Eco Blue practice
shows, the belt must be changed at a mileage of 100,000 km, since the belt
begins to break down and the fraction of the belt clogs the oil receiver, which
leads to oil starvation. And there were also precedents of belt breakage.
The engine oil change interval of 40,000
km is extremely long. In practice, the optimum service interval is 15,000
- 20,000 km for a long engine life.
FordService provides a service for
replacing the timing belt with 2.0 Eco Blue, using official equipment and
special knowledge, as well as with the presence of all original spare parts.

How to avoid holes on the roads
You will not surprise our drivers with
irregularities and potholes on the roads. After winter, coating
imperfections are even more noticeable. We will tell you how to minimize
the damage that can be done to a vehicle when driving into holes.
How to Avoid Potholes The simplest way to
deal with potholes is obvious: Avoid them. However, it is extremely
difficult to do this at night or when driving in a dense traffic of other
cars . If a collision is inevitable, it is necessary to minimize the
detrimental effect on the elements of the car.
Before reaching the edge of the pit two or
three meters, press the brake, unloading the front suspension. Release the
pedal as close to the pothole as possible. This reduces the load on the
machine, including the suspension.
When driving fast (above 100 km / h), the
likelihood of "slipping" through a pothole increases, since the wheel
restrained by the shock absorber and stabilizer may simply not have time to
fail. The shock is much softer in compression than in tension, so the fast
ride technique works. This certainly does not mean that you need to
neglect the speed limit requirements.
When traveling at low speed, add gas in
front of the obstacle, this will raise the nose of the car, therefore, its
front part can pass with a minimum load of the front axle. While in flight
over the pit, the pressure falls on the front shock absorbers, which relieves
the rear.

ride technique works. This certainly does not mean that you need to

How to Avoid Holes on the Roads If at
least one wheel can be protected from falling into a hole, then try to transfer
the weight of the car to it in order to relieve those that cannot bypass the
obstacle. For example, a car with its left wheel threatens to fall into a
hole. Turn the steering wheel to the right, then steer the left wheel
towards the groove in the road.
Monitor tire pressure. If it is
insufficient, the disc may bend; otherwise, the car will be too sensitive
to even minor impacts.
Another concern of the driver is the track
- the track from the wheels of the trucks passing earlier. When driving on
such sections of the road, the wheel bumps against unevenness, the trajectory
of the car changes. This is fraught with loss of control. To overcome
such sections of the path is at low speed, refusing to overtake. If you
cannot exclude the possibility, then you should be as concentrated as possible:
hold the steering wheel with both hands, when skidding, start rotating the
steering wheel in the opposite direction until the trajectory is aligned, and
then add gas.
How to avoid holes on the road
Avoid bumps, potholes in the oncoming
lane.
Make maneuvers that could endanger the
safety of other road users.
When driving over bumps, do not brake so
as not to increase the load on the front suspension.
Do not drive into puddles and manholes. This
warning is especially relevant in the spring, after the snow melts. The
former can conceal deep holes, because water accumulates in irregularities. The
latter could be thoroughly rotted during the winter, and therefore, upon
hitting, they have a chance to simply turn over.
In order to protect your car from all the
dangers of uneven road surfaces, you need not so much: stay focused and calm,
avoid unreasonable maneuvers. If it was not possible to accurately
overcome the obstacle, it is worth immediately inspecting the car, if
necessary, contact the service station for expert advice.

Why You Can't Save On Spark Plugs
When do I get candles? To listen to
the manufacturer's recommendations or to be guided by the state of the
elements? Is it possible to set a budget option without harming the car? Many
car owners ask themselves and maintenance specialists such questions. We
decided to explain the importance of the component to the entire mechanism.
Why it is impossible to save on spark
plugs Some strictly adhere to the indicated service life, others prefer to be
guided "according to the situation", believing that if the car starts
normally even in severe frost, then before 60 thousand kilometers of the rally
and think about replacing it is not necessary. This is one of the most
common mistakes that can have serious consequences. The second is the
selection of low-quality spare parts.
Resource of spark plugs Why you can not
save on spark plugs
A bit of theory: this element is designed
to ensure the ignition of the fuel-air composition in the combustion chamber. The
ignition is provided by a spark arising from the discharge between the
electrodes of the candle. Service life varies depending on the materials
used, climatic conditions, fuel quality. Classic candles are designed for
an average of 50 thousand kilometers, iridium and platinum - up to 90 thousand. But
since we have already determined that many factors affect wear, the figure may
change. Manufacturers recommend changing the spark plugs during every
second vehicle inspection with classic spark plugs, for other owners the terms
increase by about one and a half times.
Replacing candles is quite common. Of
course, everyone wants to solve the issue as profitably as possible. The
opportunity to save money is one of the most tempting prospects, but it has
pitfalls.
Why you can't save on spark plugs How can
low-quality spark plugs harm?
Many believe that the emerging need to
replace candles is a situation that does not require a lightning-fast response. Of
course, the engine will not stop immediately, but the negative impact can lead
to serious problems with the engine. This is also true for the
installation of base elements. Refusal to purchase spare parts from the
manufacturer or high-quality analogs will become a one-time saving, which will
lead to much more serious costs in the future. What are the consequences
of installing unreliable elements?
Explosion in the combustion chamber of the
motor
Critical increase in load on the engine
and other parts
A decrease in dynamics is fraught with
overheating of the lambda, catalyst, exhaust.
Simple rules are the secret of the right
one Why you can't save on spark plugs
It is worth showing a little care, and the
condition of the car will not cause complaints for a long time. Compliance
with simple operating rules will prolong the smooth functioning of the
mechanism.
It is necessary to check the spark plugs
at every service, regardless of the operation of the ignition system.
It is worth remembering that a mileage of
over 50 thousand kilometers is possible only when installing components with
iridium or platinum electrodes.
Use unmistakable fuel, change filters,
control spark plug gap.
If you suspect that the ignition system is
not working properly, conduct a thorough check yourself or at a service
station.
Change candles to those recommended by the
manufacturer.
