How do you do timing on 99 Ford Escort?
if the 99 ford escort is the 4-door version, the timing is set when installing the timing belt/set. Setting the timing is as simple as lining up the timing marks on the cam gear and the crank if the 99 ford escort is the 2-door version, the timing is also set when installing a new timing belt/set. The procedure for setting the timing on this engine requires locating top dead center (TDC) on cylinder number one and using a piece of flat steel to align the cams. Note: there are two different methods because Ford used different engines in the 2-door and the 4-door. The 2-door had a DOHC 2.0 installed while the 4-door had a SOHC installed
