Timing belt/chain

[DMC65]

As posted previously I have a deposit on a Swift Bolero 600 EK. Can anyone tell me if I have this right.
I think after looking online, the Fiat Ducato 2.2L (100BHP) us a chain and not a belt. Can anyone confirm this please?

61 plate in case that makes any difference

Do you mean 2.3?

If it’s a Ducati then only the 3 litre was a chain

Hi, I had 10 plate Pilote with the Ducato 2.2 100bhp engine and it had a timing chain.
It's actually a Ford engine

I think it's the same engine but not 100%
2.2TD 100bhp

i found this you may want to look up to confirm;

visit the Fiat Camper website (www.fiatcamper.com) you'll find the following advice in the FAQ part of the "EXTRAS" section:

"Question: When do I have to replace the timing-belt/chain?

Answer: The "for life" timing chain of 100 MultiJet, 160 MultiJet Power and 180 MultiJet Power engines does not need to be replaced.

120 MultiJet, 130 MultiJet and 150 MultiJet engines have a timing belt which must be checked every 90,000 km and replaced every 180,000 km on Euro 4 engines, and checked every 96,000 km and replaced every 192,000 km on Euro 5 engines.

On 115 MultiJet engines on the other hand, the belt must be checked every 48,000 km and replaced every 144,000 km.

In all cases, the belt must be replaced every 5 years."

Almost certainly the same. If you can have a look at the end of the oil filter housing , mine was actually stamped with the Ford symbol

Did I read somewhere that its basically a transit engine? 2.2 100hp has a chain

I think it's the same engine but not 100%
2.2TD 100bhp

it is easy to check.Open bonnet look down the left hand side. If the cover on the end of the engine is metal it is the Ford engine with timing chain & has a gasket & is oil tight. If it is a cam belt ( dry type) the covers are plastic
