Ford FestivaThe Ford Festiva was introduced for 1988. Three trim levels were offered: L, L Plus, and LX. The Festiva's 1.3-liter 4-cylinder engine switched from carburetion to fuel injection in 1989-90. For '90, a 5-speed manual transmission was standard and a 3-speed automatic optional. Festivas got a fresh grille and taillamps for 1990, and motorized front shoulder belts replaced manual belts.
Not sure what I am actually looking for, here is an explaination.
If you remove the crank pulley and then the center crank bolt you have a cast metal peice that is keyed and goes on over the crank and sits in front of the crank timing gear, this cast metal peice is what the crank pulley bolts to. What is it called?? Crank pulley mount? Harmonic balancer? I do not know because every book I look at shows the crank bolt holding the timing gear in place and the timing gear is what the pulley bolts to. I need this cast metal piece. anyone got a junk engine that they would strip it off and sell to me? Anyone got a part name and or number so I can go to the local Ford Dealer and order it? Is my 1.3 different or do all have this cast metal piece and the books are all wrong? I could take a picture of the part if my description is not good enough.
