Spark plug wires=Zetec, Coil On Plug=Duratec
Zetecs have exhaust manifold up front, duratec is in the rear.
Or barring all else, VIN 3 or 5 in the engine digit (8th, I think?) are zetec and SVT IIRC.

We picked up the 02. It was an older ladies car in needs NOTHING. 39,xxx on the clock we are the second owners. Will post pics when my "wife" finds the camera.
sure is! wow! but regardless, rubber and what have u does still age when the car sits i would think. i.e. suspension, belts and whatnot. hope all is well tho! that IS some low ass miles on that thing! if only my svt was owned by a lil old lady and had low miles like that!

tires are brand new and just $1000 dollars of work done to the car. including front suspension and alignment. Oil was changed 50 miles ago and we have all of the maintenance history done by one dealership. She only took her car to this dealership.
