Description

This is a set of gaskets to seal the water inlet housing, found on the timing belt end of the engine, normally obscured by the power steering pump and air conditioning compressor.  Set includes one gasket, one standard size o-ring, and one oversized o-ring.

This is the most common source of the mystery coolant leak and antifreeze smell for these vehicles with the 4XE1 DOHC engine.  The water inlet housing is located behind and under the power steering pump and air conditioner compressor, and is seldom seen or serviced.  After several years, the gasket and o-ring will begin leaking and coolant will slowly drip down the front of the engine block behind the air conditioning compressor, baking off on the hot engine block, and evaporating before it reaches the oil pan or drips onto the ground.  The trail of white residue is completely obscured by the air conditioning compressor, nearly impossible to find while casually searching for the source of the smell of baking engine coolant.

These are among the first items discontinued by Isuzu and Chevrolet, prior to Isuzu ceasing passenger vehicle sales in North America.  Soon after, the Victor brand aftermarket gasket was discontinued.  This gasket is unique to Isuzu 4X engines and is not shared by any other automobile or brand of engine.  

We searched out nearly every new, unsold gasket in North America.  Those gaskets are now gone.

We had new gaskets made using new, more modern material, and make those available for purchase.   

We then sourced duplicates of the original RED SILICONE O-Rings to match the spec of the factory equipment.  (These hold up to heat and contaminates better than the cheap black Buna o-rings found at your corner hardware store).  We also sourced oversized O-Rings, for use with damaged water pipes and housings which have rubbed against each other and/or rusted and oxidized.  The oversized o-ring fills in the damaged area.

Ford Focus ECOnetic (2010) revealed at Frankfurt

Wed, 16 Sep 2009

Ford has revealed the 2010 Focus ECOnetic at Frankfurt For the first time Ford has made Start-Stop an option, which was something we thought should be added to the Fiesta ECOnetic when we had it. The Focus ECOnetic also benefits from Smart Regenerative Charging and something called Tension FEAD (no, we had no idea either, but apparently it reduces friction) which help make the new ECOnetic Focus more economical and less polluting. With Stop-Start fitted to the 1.6 litre Duratorq TDCi the Focus manages to hit the magic 99g/km mark.
