There is a slapping noise coming from her engine, top, passenger side under a black cover which is where I believe the the cam gears are. Is this the timing belt underneath? And could it be the problem? Any and all help is great since I don't have any real knowledge on the Zetec's. Thanks, Mike Former - 98 CSVT E0 T-Red 4/4/97 #173 of 6535 Dear Santa

I was doing some reading on the Zetec maintenance forum and it does seem like the timing belt. It also seems like a fairly easy project to do. I just need a cam tool and some extra hands. Can I get any takers to help out? Free beer to be had!!!!!! Former - 98 CSVT E0 T-Red 4/4/97 #173 of 6535 Dear Santa
