How do you know if broken timing belt did more damage on 99 ZX2?

99 zx2 has a non interference engine. This means if the timing is off or the timing belt breaks, no damage will occur to your engine. If you replaced the belt and your engine runs rough, misfires, bucks, that means you didn't put the timing belt on right. It's got to be put on perfectly with the crankshaft at TDC and the cams aligned. Have fun. If you can figure it out, you can take it to a Ford dealer to have the timing belt put on properly.

You can not use a timing light to set the timing on that year engine. The ignition timing is COMPUTER CONTROLLED. If you have not fooled with the distributor then there is no reason to adjust it. But if you have bother it then you will need an oBDII engine scanner to put the timing back to factory specs.

Connect timing light. remove vacuum line and plug to put engine in base timing. loosen the Distributor hold down, turn the dist. left or right to set it with the timing light. tighten the hold down. replace line. White out makes it easier to see the timing marks. the stock timing is 10 degrees
