On an interference engine you can have internal engine damage when you attempt to start it. On a noninterference engine it may not start or it may backfire, or miss, if it does start.

You change the timing belt on a 1999 ford xlt and the truck still won't start?
Check the compression. If compression is down you may have put the timing belt on wrong. If it's down for only one or two cylinders, your engine may have damaged itself when the old timing belt gave out.

Whats wrong with your Car i have 1992 for escort that wont start just put a new timing belt on?
You just put a timing belt on and now it won't start? The belt was installed incorrectly. Timing is more than likely off. Start over and do it right this time. It would appear that you need professional help with this job. I suggest you purchase a repair manual or take it to a trusted mechanic.

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.
