Zetec Shopping list
Hi guys,
Think i'm going to change my engine earlier than orginally planned. I'm planning on going from a 1300 xflow with a type 9 5 spd to a
1998ish 2.0 zetec.
I just wanted to check what's on my shopping list to what i actually need...
- Zetec engine
- engine wiring loom and ecu
- exhaust manifold
- key and transponder (if there is one)
- clutch
- release bearing
- fuel tank (mine only has a send pipe, guessing i'll need a return as well, or can i mod my existing one?)
obviously i'll need engine mounts etc as well, but have i missed anything else?
regards,
andy

spiggot bearing, flywheel (lightend or a 1.8 escort)
Im doing similar but opting for bike carbs so no faffing with wiring & security, fuel return lines, just need an inlet manifild making lasercut
cut flanged readily available and a decent set of carbs off anything over 600cc)
Cheers

Just thought Im already using a megajolt for ign so maynot be quite as easy for you.
Still, quite a few have used the standard stuff in which case your list looks ok appart from the spiggot bearing.

fuel injection pump and swirl pot - you can fit this external to your existing tank. To add a return line there is a push in fitting which a few of us
have used (me included - although not actually tested mine yet & can't remember where its from apart from its an aircraft fuel tank part).

yep thats the one.
Also, if you want to use standard injection from the mondeo / escort then you'll either end up with a large lump sticking out of your bonnet or
you want a griffin / someone else modified manifold that takes all the ford bits.

that fuel tank fitting looks pretty neat and cheap so that's that sorted!
As for the engine, i was planning on using the standard injection and ecu, as for the manifold was planning on getting a 4-1.
I'm assuming you meant if i use the standard inlet manifold then i'll get a big bulge? i don't see how the standard injection would
cause that?

i think you can also use the rover 220/turbo inlet manifold for the zetec engine but you would need an adaptor

I dont think the turbo inlet is of sufficient size as its designed for forced induction
Life is like a bowl of fruit, funny how all the weird looking ones are left alone

I'll give you the advice I was given when doing the same swop last winter, get a Fisher one, good quality and good price.
Don't forget your engine mounts, they'll be different and starter motor. I aslo had to swop the pulley on my (small) alternator from a V
type to the ribbed one.

Use your pump as a lift pump to a swirl pot.
