MANUFACTURER'S SUGGESTED SCHEDULED MAINTENANCE
For Aspire, the manufacturer recommends the belt be replaced every 60,000 miles on Federal vehicles, and 105,000 miles on California
vehicles. For Festiva, the manufacturer recommends the belt be replaced every 60,000 miles.
REMOVAL & INSTALLATION
TIMING BELT
Removal
1. Disconnect negative battery cable. Remove accessory belts. Remove water pump pulley. Remove right inner fender panel to gain access
to crankshaft pulley. See Fig. 1
. Remove outer crankshaft pulley attaching bolts, then outer stiffener and spacer. Remove inner pulley
and baffle plate. Remove bolts retaining upper and lower cover halves to engine front. Remove both covers. See Fig. 2
.
2. Mark timing belt direction of rotation for installation reference. Remove timing belt tensioner pulley bolt. Remove tensioner pulley,
spring, and spring cover. Remove timing belt.
Installation
1. Ensure timing belt and sprockets are clean, and not worn or damaged. Align crankshaft and camshaft timing marks. See Fig. 3 . Position
belt onto sprockets in original running direction.
2. Install timing belt tensioner spring, spring cover, and pulley. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure. Tighten all bolts and
nuts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
. Adjust drive belts to proper tension.
Fig. 1: Removing Right Inner Fender Panel
Courtesy of FORD MOTOR CO. NOTE:Always rotate engine in direction of norm al operation. Rotating crankshaft backwards m ay cause
belt to jum p tim ing.
CAUT ION: Never twist, turn inside out, or bend tim ing belt. Keep belt away from grease and oil.

SPECIFICATIONS at end of article.
OXYGEN (O2) SENSOR
Removal & Installation
Disconnect negative battery cable. Disconnect wire harness connector, and remove oxygen sensor. If exhaust sensor is difficult to remove, use
rust penetrant to avoid possible damage to exhaust threads. If new sensor is not pre-coated with anti-seize, apply anti-seize compound to
sensor threads. DO NOT remove anti-seize from sensor. To install, tighten sensor and attach wire harness connector.
