If I do this myself, how much coolant (and mess) can I expect to come gushing out of there? I'd like to make this as quick and painless as possible.



I don't know how different is on the zetec...But I just did mine on the SVT and I only lost a minimal amount of fluid. As long as you get the new one in under 30 seconds you should be fine...Good luck.
