Take rocker cover off and inspect for damage, if tis good just time the cuss up with belt and drive on. itl run with bent valves anyway.
RE: Its finally happened - Toms306 - 13-04-2013
Wait, what? Lol....Not quite as spectacular as a rod through the block then.
Didn't you only recently have a new aux belt and tensioner after breaking one? Or was that someone else?
RE: Its finally happened - rd070707 - 13-04-2013
if you search around though it is very uncommon for any valve damage to occur in these...but then again it could happen.
and i spose in jonnys case it is fairly easy for you boys to throw another lump in for relatively cheap but in my case just replacing the damaged rockers and a new cambelt and it was 100%
RE: Its finally happened - darrenjlobb - 13-04-2013
Yeh but what im saying is it takes half hour to swap out rockers / lifters, bang belt on and drash on, even if thre is partial valve damage, wont matter like that. Generally speaking the pistons just smashs the valve home and fucks the rockers, easier / cheaper than towing

I do recall the below comment

Although, Darren, thats a good shout. Rocker cover off may take a while.
What do you reckon we do if we've smashed lifters? Fix it with more boost?
Fancy getting on a train with your toolkit darren?
RE: Its finally happened - darrenjlobb - 13-04-2013
Rocker cover takes 5 mins to remove, only few bolts, and will instantly reveal the main problems, just swap it all out, put belt back on / new belt if it broke (normally just slip around lower pulley a few teeth) crank it, if it sounds down on compression valves are most likely bent, just get afew cans of ether down the intake until it runs, and just hold the revs up until the valves "bed" back in, not ideal, but will get you home, ive driven miles before with a rod out the block running on 3, so this should be no big deal, its a derv afterall.

I have a 307 with a 2 litre hdi lump that the cam belt had gone on in work back along. It just broke a couple of rockers, replaced them and a new cam belt and was ok

THanks Darren.
Thats what we'll do. Problem we have is france is basically shut untill monday. Even then parts are £ra*e. its 2k for a new 306 over here... and thats a shit one.
RE: Its finally happened - Toms306 - 13-04-2013
What is it you need exactly? I still have the complete head from my HDi here, and could courier it same day/next day on Monday to wherever you're staying if that'd be any help?
RE: Its finally happened - Hdiestate - 13-04-2013
Gutted mate hope u get it back safe.
Re: Its finally happened - rocker8742 - 13-04-2013
By complete do you mean rockers, cam etc?
RE: Its finally happened - Niall - 13-04-2013
Sorry i couldn't really help you guys yesterday when you phoned but what I can do if it'd any help is drive parts down to Dover to meet someone if it's any help? Can't get the parts as I don't have a hdi lump spare or know anyone who had but if anyone further north does and they want to get them to me, I'll drive them to the chunnel

Yeah, literally just whipped the cover off and took the headbolts out....didnt touch anything else!
I would drive it down to dover if I wasn't such a pussy lol....but if anyone else wants to pick it up and take it down there they're welcome....
RE: Its finally happened - Niall - 13-04-2013
If someone can get the head from tom and drive it to me somewhere near the m2/m25 junction, I'll drive it to the chunnel
RE: Its finally happened - Tom - 13-04-2013
This does suck but atleast you have the support of the forum to help sort you out!

I can meet anyone at the A14/A12 Junction (Tesco Copdock) - its then an hour/60 miles to the A2/M25 junction according to googlemaps....
Re: Its finally happened - rocker8742 - 13-04-2013
Fooby says thanks but the problem is getting parts here rather than getting them to dover guys
RE: Its finally happened - Toms306 - 13-04-2013
No worries, the offer of courier is still there but obviously won't be till monday unfortunately.
RE: Its finally happened - Niall - 13-04-2013
Get fooby to ring me
RE: Its finally happened - pugbug - 13-04-2013
I have spare 100k engine if needed, just the block and the head.
RE: Its finally happened - the milkman - 14-04-2013
kinda feel bad that me and tom trolled about this actually breaking then 2days later it did
oh well was a HEROIC send off for the old engine jonny
RE: Its finally happened - darrenjlobb - 15-04-2013
Seriously if all you have done is broken rockers, theres most likely nothing wrong with the motor! You wont need a rebuild...there straight valved diesel engines, gotta be worth a couple rockers to find out anyway even if you do tow it home and do it here...
