By a reputable mechanic and every 60,000 miles. ========================================================== The 1999 Mercury Tracer scheduled maintenance guide shows to inspect the timing belt on the 2.0 liter , 1999 Mercury Tracer engine at 120,000 miles, and the Gates website ( they make timing belts etcetera ) shows to inspect the timing belt at 120,000 miles , replace if necessary To be on the safe side , I would replace the timing belt before that
how to set timing belt on a 98 mercury tracer 2.0
Replace the belt every 60,000 miles. Also as the water pump is driven by the cam belt you should for sure replace it at 120,000 miles when you replace the belt the second time.
Both the 1.8 liter and 1.9 liter - 4 cylinder engines use a timing BELT
the pump is timing belt driven and is located under the timing belt cover recommend replacing the timing belt at the same time.

I need to know what motor. YOu really need a manual to do this sort of thing. One tooth out or improper belt tension will destroy the valves, pistons, etc.
