Does anyone know if the Ford zetec 1.8 petrol in a 2003 ford focus is an interference engine or none interference?.. I've read a lot of posts saying it's none interference therfore if the timing belt slips no damage would have been done to the engine hence my previous post thanks?

Your engine is non interference.

From what Google tells me.

If the timing belt has only slipped a tooth or two you should not have done any major damage.

Replace timing belt and all tensioners, guides and gaskets.

Depending on wear and tear it would be wise to think about other items that are easily replaced whilst the motor is apart.

Good luck
