  • i have a 1999 mercury mystique. and i was going to replace the timing belt before this happens. its at 99k and i need some tips. you jack up the engine and pull off the top motor mount correct? and there is no special pattern to pull off the top cover is there? on my truck i know there was a specific pattern to pull off the intake to not crack it. and behind the passenger side wheel you pull off the splash guard and get at the timing covers right?

  • @thomasplusamber yes pull off the passenger front wheel and motor mount

  • Hey man, I know you said that if the timing belt breaks, there will be no valve damage. I have a 98 ford contour 2.0L that needs the timing belt replaced and the mechanic told me that he will have to charge me, if there are any internal components such as valves broken. Do you know if this is true because i thought is was a non interference DOHC.

  • no it will not hurt the valves 1998 or older only 2.0 the v6 will hut the valves 2.5

  • As a matter of a fact this is the first timing belt change action video I see on Facebook!

  • face book?

see all

  • I have this same car and I'm about to replace the water pump since it just went out, cars got 93K on it so I'm just going to throw a new timing belt, tensioner & idler pulley. I was wondering if the engine has 2 idler pulleys or just 1.... I know they made them both ways.

  • i just changed a timing belt on the same motor man its all fucking retarted 

  • @s30zman No not true on Fords only. The timing has to be a timimg Chan than you all done and the junk yard would be happy. The mech fix other cars so they think every car is the same i got a 1999 2,0 ford countor and the timing went and my car works after changing it.

  • @s30zman
