Description
US PRO Tools Ford 1.0L EcoBoost Petrol Engine Timing Tool Kit (Fiesta, Focus, etc.) – Model 7170
Product Overview
The US PRO Tools 7170 is a professional-grade, specialized engine timing and locking kit engineered specifically for Ford’s award-winning 1.0-liter 3-cylinder EcoBoost petrol engines. Because these modern powerplants utilize a complex wet-belt (belt-in-oil) primary timing drive system and independent variable camshaft timing (VCT), specialized locking pins and alignment plates are strictly required to lock the crankshaft, camshafts, and flywheel in their exact timed positions during timing belt overhauls or cylinder head servicing.
Key Features & Specifications
-
Comprehensive EcoBoost Coverage: Designed specifically for Ford 1.0L EcoBoost 3-cylinder turbocharged petrol engines (both Port Fuel Injection and direct-injection variants) across a broad vehicle production span.
