02 Fiesta 1.25 Zetec Timing Belt Broke?

[alvin]

Tried to start the car today it briefly started and then jerked to a stop,tried to restart it but sounds like no compression just turning and turning with no attempt to restart itself,I'm thinking broken belt?I have a spare 1.25 zetec cylinder head from a 1997 Fiesta will this fit the 02 model(it says Zetec SE on the top).Any help greatly appreciated.

I'm not sure as to whether the head would fit or not but checking the belt should be easy enough if you Un do the top bolts on the belt cover you can move it over a little bit to check for sure or you could just watch the crank pulley when trying to start it.
