Replacing the timing belt does not change the firing order. the dist should only go in one way. the firing order is, 1 3 4 2

Your actual firing order is determined by the position of the rod journals on the crankshaft. At top dead center, the #1 piston is supposed to be all the way up in the cylinder bore and both #1intake and exhaust valves are closed.
Valve opening and closing is determined by cam timing, which you set "in phase" by using the reference marks on the crank and cam gear(s). Since both the crankshaft and camshaft both are one solid piece, it is not necessary to index all other cylinders. Unless you initially set those references incorrectly or allow them to change during the install, once set, those settings do not change unless the belt fails. Your distributor is driven by the camshaft. Being removable, you can incorrectly install it but that will not change the firing order, but can make the expected spark happen too early or too late. There are no relevant markings on a timing belt. The teeth on the belt are evenly spaced and match those on the gears. If the gears are indexed correctly, the belt will function properly however it is positioned when installed. If you were to put a crayon mark on the back of the belt, and reference that mark to any fixed point on the block, after turning the engine two full revolutions, it will return to the reference mark. Therefore, your question makes no sense at all.

Hello sjmorris: My name is Roger and I can help. First make sure the timing marks are correct at the timing belt. The Marks off just one tooth will change every thing. Next the firing order is 1-3-4-2. Next you will need to take the computer out of the equation. to do this locate the DATA link connector. You will find this on the right side of the car. Will be behind the strut tower ans in front of the firewall. Small rectangular box with a cover over it. Inside the box locate the terminals marked E1 and TE1. jump the two terminals together. A paper clip will work just fine. Start the car set timing to 10 degrees BTDC. Remove jumper engine should now be properly timed.
Please just ask if you need further help. Please rate the answer you received as this way we know your answer helped. Thank You for using Fix Ya. Roger

How can I set the timing and firing order?

Engine timing is done electronically. It is based on Cylinder 1 being a few degrees before TDC (Top Dead Centre of firing stroke).

Valve Timing is set using marks when you change the timing belt or chain. That is set with Piston 1 at TDC on FIRING stroke.

Here is the firing order. It is nice and easy, 1, 2, 3, 4, left to right.

Car wont start,its getting gas and has spark and compression?i think timming ,but would it b=e timming belkt ot main computer?ty.

If it was a timing belt you would not have compression. I would be looking at firing order of the HT leads or the ECM. run fault codes to find what is wrong.

Hi and thanks for your reply to my question re: ?timing marks? (not firing order) Problem is the diagrams that were sent are for a SOHC for a 4 Cylinder not a Quad Cam (DOHC) 6 Cylinder. I can see the...

Take the Crankshaft Pulley off in order for you to see the Markings ON the Crankshaft Sprocket (usually a machine pressed dot or line). And you should be able to see the Marking On the Engine right behind this.
Based on your year (1994): I would replace whatever you want to replace now, especially with everything apart. Think....everything back together and it (they) go out! Now you have to take everyhting back together.
Regarding the OEM vs Dayco vs Gates. OEM is better but more expensive, Dayco & Gates not as good but less expensive...just my opinion. How much longer will you have with this car??
Cheers!

Timming Belt

be very carefull if you are doing this yourself,it is critical to get the timing marks just right or you could do some serious damage to the engine.You must turn the engine by hand with a socket or spanner on the bottom pulley until the mark on it is lined up with the marker on the casing that surrounds it.Once this is done do the same with the top pulley,the mark on this may just be a small indentation that lines up with an arrow,once this is done you can then put on the belt and make sure it is tensioned properly.Once again,these settings are critical and if you are unsure DONT attempt it.

How do you replace a water pump on a 94 ford escort?

the water pump is even further in than the timming belt.in fact the pump pulley is driven by the timming belt. however with a shop manuel its not bad of a job to do, just go slow
