Ford Escort ZX2

Most ford inertia switches are resettable and should not need to be replaced.

Check the alternator. Put a new battery in it or check the alternater.

Check the antilock wire beneath the master cylinder.

Also the RWAL (rear wheel anti-lock) computer will store a (1 code at a time) code due to a faulty system. This code can be read by counting the flashes starting with the long flash as one and following with the short flashes there after (1(long)2(short)3(short)...and so on). The long flash always starts the new set of flashes. If the brake light stays on then a code reader will need to be used ($20 on ebay), which is read the same way.

Lower radiator hose.

It may be easier to use the drain plug located on the left hand side of the radiator. Its on the back of the radiator. Do not mistake the heater core for the radiator. The radiator is the one with the thick rubber hoses.

To take off the lower radiator hose you have to remove the air filter box.

I would look up inside the fender in front of the pass. side wheel. Or drivers wheel, check your fuse> I remember Tempos were bad for the harness behind steering wheel and plugged in under steering column, it was a part the dealer kept in stock. .

Remove the wiring harness from the back of your headlight assembly. Remove the headlight assembly retaining bolts. Reverse the process to install your new headlight assembly.

If it has one, it is inside the car on the firewall about 18 inches up from the floor on the pass side. The fuel shut off switch is located on the passenger side rear fender. Well, in the trunk of the hatchbacks, and same location for wagons. You will see a little door in the trunk, on the right side, about 1-2ft above floor. Open this door, and see if the switch was faulted. This can happen from sudden impacts (like hitting a shopping cart, like i did), or maybe you took off or slowed down too fast. I would consider checking this. If you hear your fuel pump whining when you turn on your ignition, i would probably have someone check it out.

First off, disconnect negative battery cable. Then push your hand inside the shifter boot, and pull the panel that the shifter is in out. The whole front panel is in two parts, and the lower part will pull out. Go slowly here, firm pressure should get it out for you. Once you have the panel out, look at the lower part of the top panel (the one with the radio and ac vents). You should see two screws at the bottom, remove those. Now start pulling the entire upper panel out of the dash. The whole upper panel will come forward, disconnect the wiring for the climate control and you should then have enough room to get the radio out. Word of advice on disconnect of radio-make certain you have anti theft code or radio will not work if reconnected.

camshaft timing peg and a crankshaft alignment tool... I'm half way through doing mine and realizing you need to take the camshaft pulley off to get to the bottom gear for the timing belt, I'm still stuck on how to get it off, it says to use a strap wrench so I'm guessing for to hold the pulley while you remove the bolt... anyone ever acomplished this?

Illegally. And the black market is so huge today that no amount of police could ever completely stop it. You can either get them from a source or manufacture/produce them yourself.

well you Can either make the illegal drug them self or they can go to sum friend who makes it illegally all u need is some products and then you can make it so its pretty easy if u have a hide out where u wont get caught make it cuz if u do u could get sentenced for at least 4-6 years in prison.

The starter can be seen under the intake piping. Remove the pipe from the throttle body, and then you'll see the starter. You should be able to trace the negative battery cable to it. It has three bolts and can require much finesse to remove once unbolted.

Almost every car and truck since 1980 has a belt routing guide on a sticker under the hood. This is most often placed on the radiator shroud or radiator mount but can be found other places like on the bottom side of the hood. If the sticker is gone then go to your local automotive parts dealer like NAPA and ask them to please look it up for you. A nice counter guy - or girl- would be happy to check their books for you and hand you a print out. Be sure to have the make, model and engine info with you. Mitch

There is a tension pulley to the left of the alternator. Put a 19mm socket with a torque wrench on the pulley nut. Turn the nut in a counter-clockwise direction. This will lift the pulley away from the belt and allow you to slip it off. Install is the reverse of removal.

• disconnect battery cables
• drain the cooling system
• remove drive belt (4 cyl) or water pump drivebelt (6 cyl)
• (4 cyl instructions)
• remove right front wheel and splash guard

The Chiltons/Haynes 72300 has the vacuum circuits divided into the emissions, Fuel and brakes sections of their manual covering each vacuum hose.

==new answer== The universal principle is this- if you want someone else to be something, first be that yourself.

A way to work with this so that you can see how it works is to pick a person you are in daily contact with. Next, make a list of the things about this person that irritate you. Beside this list, choose the direct opposite of this quality and choose one each day to practice in that person's presence, without their knowledge of what you are doing so you can see the results. You will actually be practicing being what you want that person to become. Practice this thoughtfully and faithfully for two weeks and then log the results.

the bumper will have to be removed.

As long as you put the spark plug wires back on the new distributor cap

in the PROPER ORDER , no , it would not effect the engine timing

one short ton equals 2000 lbs. one long ton equals 2240 lbs. For cargo purposes, one ton occupies 40 cubic feet.

6.5" speakers in the front

you need a machine like a t-tech other wise its darn near impossible

Is the t-tech machine a flushing method? Just want to drain whats in the pan and add new fluid. Leave filter intact.

well if you drop the plug you only get about 30% of the fluid. if you want that make sure you got a dip stick, if you dont then you cant. if you do call the dealership and see which transmission fluid you need and how much then drop the plug drain the fluid then fill through the dipstick

I am not 100% sure, but, may have a small black foam filter about 2cm square in the main air filter housing with a pipe leading down to the face of the engine block (front of engine under manifold). There you should find a small black box bolted to the block, this will receive the hose from the air filter housing. Inside this there will be a valve.This assembly is called the oil separator. All these parts make the PCV valve system (positive crankase ventilation)

To test - clean foam filter with methylated spirits. Remove oil separator and small valve. Valve should rattle when shaken. Flush out valve and separator with Carb cleaner. Check gasket, renew if necessary. Replace in reversal of removal.

It would do no harm to clean your EGR pipe and valve with carb cleaner whilst doing this.

N.B the PCV valve is under the exhaust manifold and access id HARD. So you may want to remove the manifold first.

Buy a haynes manual aswell this will help if you have the older Pulse Air system and not the EGR valve as associated pipe work makes getting to the PCV valve difficult. Hope this help. Not a difficult job, just take care and time.

disconnect the battery for a good ten mins
