Key Features

• Timing belt kit with seals for engine valve train service
• Includes a timing belt, camshaft belt tensioner, and two camshaft belt idlers
• Includes camshaft inlet seal, crankshaft seal, and camshaft exhaust seal

Detailed Description

This Dayco timing belt kit is intended for vehicles that require coordinated replacement of the belt, tensioner, idlers, and seals during timing service. Using a complete kit helps address wear across the timing drive system at the same time, which is important when servicing engines that rely on precise camshaft and crankshaft synchronization. Dayco 95294K1S is listed for 1998-1999 Ford Contour, 1998-1999 Ford Escort, 1999 Mercury Cougar, and 1998-1999 Mercury Mystique applications, with notes that separate 1999 coverage by build date before or after 3/29/99. This part number, 95294K1S, is the reference to verify before ordering.

Dayco 95294K1S is a fitment-specific timing belt kit for Ford Contour, Ford Escort, Mercury Cougar, and Mercury Mystique models in the listed years. The included seals support a more complete timing service by replacing common leak points at the same time as the belt components.

What It Is Used For

• Replacing a worn or aged timing belt during scheduled engine service
• Addressing tensioner or idler wear that can affect belt tracking
• Renewing camshaft and crankshaft seals during timing work
• Servicing engines with timing noise or belt-related maintenance needs

Installation Notes and Tips

Verify engine build date for 1999 applications before ordering, since fitment changes by production date. Confirm the listed components against the existing timing system before disassembly, and follow the service procedure for belt timing marks, tensioner setup, and seal installation. The hydraulic actuator is not included where noted in the fitment data.

Quality Assurance

Dayco supplies timing components for engine service applications, and this kit is organized for a complete timing belt replacement on the listed vehicles. Use the part number 95294K1S and the vehicle build-date notes to confirm the correct application.
