1.2 EB2 / Puretech Timing Chain Conversion Kit

[GiveMeABreak]

Hi All

As per my post here: viewtopic.php?p=827137#p827137 regarding a potential Timing chain conversion for the 1.2 EB2 / Puretech Engines fitted to many Stellantis vehicles like Citroen, DS Automobiles, Peugeot and Vauxhall vehicles, it now appears we are closer to getting a kit for the conversion.

Thanks to 'Scottish Car Clan' for posting this info and link to the original video here:



... and the updated video confirming the kit availability:



So as explained, final costs to be worked out for import and customs, but likely to be about £500, compared to the approximate £800 for replacing a wet belt with a wet belt....

As I also mentioned in other posts, a rubber belt running in hot oil is just not a good idea and that being said, Stellantis have now gone back to a timing chain on their latest incarnation of EB2 engine, specifically the EB2LTDH2 Euro 6.4 variant. Note the significance being the 'EB2LT' part of the engine code as there are still some new Euro 6.4 EB2 engines that still have the wet belt.

So good news for those considering a conversion to prevent long term damage.

Is it available yet? If so has anyone used one yet?

I suggest you contact the company directly, as they are based in Holland. As said in the video, they are looking at exports etc., but here is the link and the email address is at the bottom:
