Hi Peeps, lol

I have a 2001 (Y) Reg 1.25 Zetec Fiesta without air con,

Has anyone fitted a timing belt to a fiesta with the same engine as mine. Is there any special tools required to complete the job and how hard is it to do and how long roughly does it take.

Got quite a bit of hands on experience being a technician.

Cheers Guys.
