Is the engine on a 1999 ZX2 2.0L DOHC Zetec an interference or non-interence engine?
It is a NON Interference engine. The pistons have reliefs cut into them, in order to prevent damage if the belt snaps. Therefore if you snapped a belt the valves will not collide with the pistons. Source - A friend of mine that has been a Ford mechanic for 21 years.
What kind of gas mileage does a 1999 Mercury Cougar get?
It depends on the model you get, but most importantly on how you drive, as well as many other factors like temperature and modifications to the vehicle. I have heard of the Zetec powered Cougar getting regular 29 mpg mixed driving, without trying hard, while the Duratec V6 will usually run at around 22 to 25 mpg, mixed. The Cougar is a mid size car, do not think otherwise, so the I4 Zetec which does great in the Focus does have trouble getting the cougar to move the way you would want it to sometimes. There were also only about 500 Zetec powered Cougars made with automatic transmissions, so you better learn how to drive a stick.
