Ford ZX2 Ford ZX2 offers sporty styling, responsive handling, brisk acceleration, and everyday comfort and practicality for one or two people. Its back seat and trunk are fully usable. Yet the ZX2 is easy on fuel, and costs less than some base-level sedans. Gone is the smooth, grille-less look, replaced by a dark horizontal slash between the headlights.

How-to, Change Your Timing Belt. Now with pictures!

Look at the above link. The correct OTC timing/camshaft alignment tool (that fits in the back of the cams) is around $10 and you will need it to re-time the engine. The ZX2 2.0L Zetec is NOT an interference engine. You should have NO damage.
