artscot79 Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 it just clips on..there are rubber inserts in the cover, just lift it of. same engine as the mk1 with a cover and renamed duratec the covers just held on with rubber bungs and pulls off Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
starfield Posted December 15, 2010 Share Posted December 15, 2010 same engine as the mk1 with a cover and renamed duratec the covers just held on with rubber bungs and pulls off it just pulls off. it is being held by 3 or 4 rubber attachments. I do not think it is the same engine as the mk1. The duratec engine is equally found on Mazda cars; exactly the same. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
focusian Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 you can see pictures here : http://www.fordfocusclub.com/forum/index.php/topic,8302.0.html .................................... :D Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
artscot79 Posted December 16, 2010 Share Posted December 16, 2010 you can see pictures here : http://www.fordfocus...pic,8302.0.html .................................... :D its a revised version of the original unit but to look at is exactly the same exept the duratecs chain driven not belt and bigger ports visually they look almost the sdame i was thinking of the zetec se which is badged duratec The name of this engine will confuse everyone because it's an example of Ford's multi-name units. It's title is the Zetec SE but it's also been labelled, as part of the growing Duratec series of late, plus it's also called the Sigma in the US. However, it has nothing in common with any other Duratec or Zetec and no parts are interchangeable - confused yet? Told you!to make it more confusing the mk1 Zetecs were made to look like the latest Duratecs. Both the ST and RS engines were confusingly re-badged as a Duratec despite being reworked zetec e engines Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
