Stolen from Burton Power:
ZETEC E 16V
Ford has given the 'Zetec' name to three different types of 16v engines:
Zetec E - The original Zetec engine was fitted to Escort, Orion, Mondeo, Cougar and 1.8/2.0 Focus models. It has been produced in 1.6, 1.9 and 2.0 litre capacities. All engines produced up to April 98 use hydraulic followers, those built from May 98 were redesigned using mechanical followers. These later engines are fitted in the Focus, Cougar and late Mondeo models.
Zetec S - This is the baby Zetec as fitted in the late Fiesta, Puma and 1.4/1.6 Focus models. It has been produced in 1.25, 1.4, 1.6 and 1.7 litre capacities. These engines bare no mechanical resemblance to the Zetec E engines.
Zetec Duratec HE - This is a brand new engine that has just been released and is to be fitted to the 2001 Mondeo model. We expect to see this engine in other models during this year. It is totally redesigned from the Zetec E engine it will inevitably replace. The most noticeable difference is the fact that this new engine is chain driven, not belt driven like the earlier engines.
There is more, but I think that will be enough for this thread.
