Description

Ford 1.5 EcoBoost Timing Tool Kit – Camshaft & Crankshaft Locking Set

Brief Overview

This is a specialist timing tool kit engineered specifically for Ford's 1.5L EcoBoost 3-cylinder chain-driven engine platform. If you work with Fiesta, Focus, Kuga, or Puma models from 2018 onward, this kit delivers the precision locking mechanisms required for safe timing system service and replacement. The kit includes flywheel and camshaft locking tools plus a dedicated timing chain tensioner pin—everything needed to lock the engine safely during maintenance operations. For shops working across Ford's EcoBoost range, you'll also want to consider complementary timing solutions like the 1.0L EcoBoost 3-cylinder timing kit and the 2.0L EcoBoost timing tool set for broader model coverage.

Key Components & Features

  • Triangular Timing Plate – Large silver anodized plate with multi-tab splined hub and precision locating holes for accurate engine positioning
  • Camshaft Locking Tool – T-shaped metal bracket with hooked locating tab for secure camshaft alignment
  • Flywheel Lock – Central splined hub mechanism prevents crankshaft rotation during service
  • Timing Chain Tensioner Pin – Dedicated locking pin for chain tensioner retention
  • Threaded Guide Pins – Three black stepped locator pins with hex heads for component alignment
  • Hardware Kit – Includes M-style bolts, washers, and rubber spacers for secure tool mounting
  • Molded Carry Case – Blue hard plastic case with integrated handle and compartmented storage for all components
  • Retaining Circlip – Precision clip for securing components during installation

Real-World Application

This kit is essential for timing chain service, camshaft replacement, or head removal on Ford's modern 1.5L EcoBoost engines. The locking mechanism prevents accidental engine rotation—a critical safety requirement when the timing chain is exposed. Shops handling Fiesta, Focus, Focus Active ST, Kuga, and Puma models will find this tool indispensable.

Why This Kit Matters to Your Customers

Professional mechanics understand that timing work requires absolute precision. This kit eliminates guesswork by providing purpose-built locking mechanisms for each critical engine component. The flywheel lock prevents crankshaft movement, the camshaft tool ensures precise alignment, and the chain tensioner pin holds the timing system stable. Without these tools, technicians risk timing belt/chain misalignment—a costly mistake that leads to warranty claims and reputation damage.

Bottom Line for Your Shop

Stock this kit if you serve shops working on 2018+ Ford EcoBoost models. It's a specialized, high-confidence sale that positions you as a knowledgeable supplier of critical service tools. The complete kit approach means customers don't hunt for missing components, and you capture the full transaction value.
