Removing / replacing Split Port Engine
#21
You do not need to look just at the ZTW (wagons), any Zetec would work. Work from the bottom, rather than from the top. Drop the whole front assembly rather than trying to lift or pull. Also, if you do go that route (replacing the SPI with a Zetec), be sure to keep the PAT (Passive Anti-Theft) key from the Zetec vehicle. When my son swapped the SVT (hot rod Zetec) into my wagon, we had to pull the transponder chip from the one key and swap it into the other. The PAT key transponder chip is matched to the ECU. (That is probably why the mechanics say it cannot be done. Hate to say it, but it can, and has been done.)
