When you turn it over it will have an uneven speed. It'll go ur, ur whirr ur ur whirr whirr. Another way to tell if it is broken is to take the oil filler cap off and look in there with a lilght while someone turns the engine over. If the belt is broken you won't see the valve train turning. If you see it turning the belt is all right.
97 ford escort 2000 timing belt replacement
i need to find timing on my 2.0 zx2 z tech eng
The timing belt on a 2000 Honda Accord should be changed every 75,000 miles. Failure to change at the appropriate time can result in engine failure.
how do you align the crank pulley in reference to the cam pulley on a 2002 escort?

Ignition timing is not adjustable. Cam timing is adjustable by the "guess" method unless you are replacing the timing belt and using the timing marks on the belt drive cogs, in which case you need a repair manual that has detailed instructions.
Before we get into timing and whatnot, let me just ask what the actual observed know problem and/or symptoms are.
The 2.0 Liter DOHC with VIN # 3 has a timing belt and requires replacement at 120,000 miles. This is not an interference engine.
Usually no compression is a mechanical failure. Probably the timing belt, May also have bent valves.Usually no compression is a mechanical failure. Probably the timing belt, May also have bent valves.
On the 2.4L the intake valves can hit the exhaust valves and bend.
Yes, the engine in a 2000 Escort is NOT an interference engine.
I have a 2000, and a friend of mine has a 2002. Both lost the timing belt around 50,000 miles ($900 =/- repair). Other than that no problems with either car.
