A very close call here with a 1.2 Petrol Puretch engine in for inspection this week! The notorious wet belt (timing belt running inside the engine) in a terrible state which in turn leaves debris blocking the oil pickup as pictured. We also fitted a new clutch kit due to a high clutch pedal.
Sump dropped and new wet belt kit fitted after a full BG products flush with Engine Performance Restorer (EPR) .
We reckon another few weeks driving and it would have been game over!
Full workshop facilities and service slots with top quality fluids and filters along with the latest diagnostic equipment here at JPS.
