How much is it to get a new timing belt installed on a '95 Escort?

I have a Ford 1995 Escort LX, and the timing belt is coming apart. There is about half a belt left and I'm driving anymore until it's fixed. How much is it to get a new one installed normally? Is it possible for me to do it myself?How much is it to get a new timing belt installed on a '95 Escort?about $80.00 labor part $15.00How much is it to get a new timing belt installed on a '95 Escort?I'm not sure how much it's gonna cost, but I do know that you definitely don't want to do it yourself. It's a pretty tough job and then you have to re-adjust the timing after you're all done.How much is it to get a new timing belt installed on a '95 Escort?The labor guide calls for 2.8 hours for the 1.8L motor

and 2.3 for the 1.9L motor.

Plus the cost of belt.



I STRONGLY recommend having the water pump replaced at the same time.

Main reason is the timing belt drives the pump. if pump goes bad it takes out the timing belt.

Most of the time, its the water pump that causes the belt to go bad on that model.
