Saw this on ebay...didn't know they existed. For $100 and if I lived nearby - Lawrenceville, IL, I'd get it to wrench on it.

I have an 86 Diesel Escort Wagon 5sp, 97k. Gets great mileage (35-40 mpg)

2.0L mazda diesels were the engins installed on these "runners". Fuel mileage is fantastic, power is a little low. They have 2 timing belts, one from the crank to the cam and one from the cam to the injection pump. If the engine belt breaks it is valve and head time. There is 0 clearence for the pistons and the design destroys a lot of goodies. Usually pushes a follower through the side of the head bore.
