  • Speed decreases when uncoupled/

    Hello, Problem 1) has the problem most often during on/off-coupling and almost always when I drive backwards, the speed drops up to 500 and itself goes up again. In idle the engine works normal. 1.6 Zetec E 9 Ps Year of manufacture 97 HAVE already changed the crankshaft… valve, corner hose, empty running switch and the throttle valve ruptured. What else can it be ?? Problem 2) The other problem, I noticed that sometimes on the highway when I give gas so at 120km/h he don’t drive faster and then I push the gas pedals completely and then it goes very slowly faster. After a few minutes it is gone and then it is splashy again. Is it maybe the LMM ?? THANK YOU

  • Sports air filter or exhaust system

    Servus together I have a question that has been asked certain scon thousand times. I am thinking about whether I am putting a sports air filter or a sports exhaust system underset at my escort 1.6l 16v bj 96. I am less concerned about the acoustics but about getting ahead. I have already tried out my escort a bit in things air filter( time measurement 0-100 standart then without plug on air mass meter and without air filter I have also driven on clean road times and have determined without air filter the time measurement was 4 sec faster) and in things sport Auspuff it is actually about that the engine has less exhaust back pressure or am I wrong? I had there but other experience can make then at my polo86c, since I fell off the end pot and the car was no longer out of ass. 130 was celebration evening without end pot! please to clarify what brings something greeting Marcel

  • Idles possible to clean?

    Hello, after my problem with the cooling water indicator, the hanging / high speed is still left in the stand. Sinks only sporadically and then the motor runs a bit unevenly to approx. 900 rpm. So far I have changed throttle flap poti, coolant sensor, thermostat and LMM. Almost all plugs cleaned (to the lamda probe, cooling sensor on the thermostat housing, to the DK-Poti, to the LL-switch motor) My question: Before I replace the LL-switch, the possibly can be cleaned, there is something there. Mechanical? When reading in the subjects of unround motor running, it was also mentioned that the round “dose” should not clap right next to the LL position if you knock on the lid? Is this statement correct? Drive the Essi MK 7 with 1.4l and 75 hp as a convertible.

  • Escort tell-tale Question

    Hello. I noticed that when I turn on the ignition on my Escort, the indicator light for the airbag and the oil control light will not light up! With me only the indicator light for the battery and for ABS will light up. (going out later) My Escort is year 97. So my grandmother also drives an Escort and with it lights up again the indicator lights for Airbag, ABS, battery and ÖL. (going out later) She has a year 98. Is this dependent on the year of construction or is correct what with my oil and the airbag not? I also checked the oil but the oil is optimal at maximum! As far as I know these indicator lights must light up every time or not? In advance thank you for your answers ! Lg, Dennis Edit: Oh just the oil indicator light has lit up with me and that permanently until I started the car it went out. Dan I made my escort again on ignition and now the oil indicator light lights up again. again no more! oô I’m a little confused!

  • Seeing door-edge rust positive?

    Hello guys. I brought my little rust carrot to the FFH today. All four doors have pitted… The request at the Fordwerke was granted positive after two weeks. Now I have already read the 1000 threads on the topic of edge rust and want to say nothing further, but I want to try to win the whole thing off something positive. So: If they don’t exchange the door, but only reseal and paint, then they paint the entire door also from outside or only inside? Ic h has many small scratches and a parking ramper on the great protective strips of the previous owner in it. I have now also read that you can do the bad from time to time. Should then also actually also get new ones..? So I want to try to be happy about the rust, so write me your experiences. Greetings, Richard

  • Mondeo 2,2L TDCI no top speed

    Hi, first hello. I’m new here and I’m curious what you say about it: I got a new Mondeo 2,2 TDCI station wagon in September 05. At first I was completely excited, because the car had a brutal drive. Was already impressed by my old TDI, but this was outstanding. Recently, however, it seems to me that there is not so much going on, since I am constantly driving around with 2 children and dog, but I also don’t call off permanent performance. So far the case has been 3 times (in the 5th gear at approx. 1500 rpm – everything is off and within half a second again), and then I don’t even get close to Vmax. The car is indicated with 218, with a lot of running I can only 205 on the speedometer. With Ford you don’t know anything about it and a mistake was not made either. The 2.2 TDCI of another workshop customer goes to Tacho after all 230. Maybe one of them knows what this could be?

  • Scorpio 2.3 the last

    Hello together, would like me event. buy a used (logically!) Scoprio (best combination Ghia) from year 96. Where else do you get so much car for so little money or? Now I’m just afraid to fall on my nose. Can you recommend the 2.3-er engine or is the 2.0-er better? How does it look with the fuel pack? Does a high mileage with 1a checkbook don’t matter? I’ve already read that the TDI should not be so durable. Sorry in case someone asks the question the x-th time here. Greetings ToDaKo
