Engine needed

Recommended Posts

This is a bit of a long shot but my son needs a 1.25 Zetec S engine for his 1999 T reg Ford Fiesta.

 

He has already registered with breakeryard.com but if anyone knows of any or can reccomend any other breakers for him to contact, please contact me ASAP.

Well, I have a 1.25 T reg Fiesta and the owner before me had to get the engine replaced for an identical unit. I can dig out the receipt for the independent Ford specialist where she had it done if you want: I think it came to £400 ish which included supply and fitting.

 

All I can remember right now is that it was done in South East London.

 

PS what happened to your son's old engine? Longevity doesn't seem to be these units' strong point.

Did he not just buy this from someone on here ?

 

No Dean, I bought a Fiesta off a friend of Supragirlie thinking it could be used as a donor after I used it for the 2 weeks I am home but it isnt a Zetec so we are now still looking. :(

The big ends have gone through oil starvation. It is cheaper to replace than repair - or so I'm told.
