Ford Escort Ford Escort ZX2 is a hot-looking compact coupe with a rakish design. Yet its handsome interior reveals a roomy back seat and surprisingly large trunk. ZX2 provides responsive handling and good road manners and its engine delivers decent power. At the same time, the ZX2 is a practical car, with plenty of room in the back seats for friends.

Some fuel injected cars use a cam sensor to sync up the injector pulse. If you have spark then your crank sensor is fine. If you have spark and no fuel, it can be the fuel pump, fuel pump relay, fuel pump fuse, or the fuel pump inertia switch. Check to see if your pump is running when you turn the key on. It will only run for one second to charge the system so pay attention. Since the tank is right under the rear seat it won't be too hard to listen for. Just take the rear seat out and you'll find a sheet metal cover. It has phillip head screws. Remove the screws and you'll be staring at the fuel pump module. It will be very apparent if the pump runs now. Just turn the key to run (don't start it) and listen for the pump to run. If it runs then it might be an injector/cam sensor issue. If the pump doesn't run, then it is probably a fuel pump fuse/relay as described above.
