Hello community, have a question, hope you can give me reasonable answers: My 97 he 2.3 he Scorpio sucks me at the moment poor. Between 13 and 14 l he pulls himself in and I have no idea why. New LMM – changed due to defect – and air filter also renewed. A new ignition coil in it, the other was still ok. I ordered a few new spark plugs -Original Motorcraft this time – and will change them. But if that’s not the case, I don’t know. Besides ic h somehow the feeling that he sometimes doesn’t pull properly, as if he was driving with braked foam and someone takes away 5 or 10 HP, which I can’t really explain to myself. Maybe someone from you has an idea, what is in the bush or doesn’t work properly. Anyway, I thank you for your well-founded answers. Greeting Lutz

hello Fordgemeinden, sorry, if double posting. I had overlooked the section “Scorpio” and already posted before. I don’t find the posting…. I’m new in the forum and urgently looking for the 2.3 engine, year 1997, the “cool water collector” at the top left of the engine (my interpretation of this part). The housing has broken open at the top (see photo) and water gushed out. See also representation from the service book of the Scorpio. Search is needed because maybe the whole e engine is almost gone, the workshop does not want to install a new part with the risk that everything will end up on the scrap. For help I would be very grateful. Greetings and thanks in advance, Peter

Hello people ! Have a special question again : Since I live quite close to the border area to France , I have bought these days a Scorpio 1b from May 92 . 165’Km , Dohc engine but zero and nothing to see from the catalyst . No one inside ! I now have several possibilities : a) the part either simply stand and let become old . b) Sell it again within France (CT valid until September ) . c) The long not dead part as French driving and me German from U I wanted to know at the last point (founded) if it is only possible to upgrade a Scorpio built for export (in Cologne) at least to Euro 1 (and then possibly later by KLR to Euro2 – na logo!) based on suitable spare/donor parts? Are the suitable cable trees there at all? How does it look with’m control ga guesses out ? Or could it possibly still be to all abundance that the export – Dohc should get only faded fuel with which basically this machine should be replaced already…?! The car runs perfectly and was brought to me before even about 65Km on the highway. The chassis number is: WF0AXXGAGA NG91544 For suitable own experiences on the topic already many thanks !

Hello dear Ford community! We have an old Sierra 1.8 LX (EZ: 06.10.1988) standing in the garden, which was driven only four years and then put off by my father with slight front damage under the shed, because he lacked the money for the repair. Many think yes, such a Sierra, well, nothing special, but I remember when he was completely new and I took a seat in the rear at the age of 6 when my father once proudly brought him home – brand new He has 88hp and has an unobstructed The engine has been silent since 1992. I want to start it again and do the following before: – Oil change with filter -Zentriebelwechsel -Zündkerzenwechsel -Zündkabelwechsel -neuen Wasserkühler einbauen -Vergaser clean -possibly brake fluid and brakes kpl., if car revitalizes 1. Is there a source to get still good and cheap new spare parts for the Sierra or are the mostly outdated stocks (e.g. 10 years old timing belt set)? 2. Should one use the Is there an explosion drawing from the carburettor or can I be told how to clean the carburettor (looks really demanding, unlike my mopped, with a vacuum box and and and? 4. Are there still new body parts (hub, front sheet, front mask)? 5. Can one somehow retrofit a G-KAT with Euro 2? Or do I have to replace it with Euro 2? 6. What does a full acceptance cost? Thank you in advance! Greetings, Frank

Hello, I have a 95 Scorpio 2, which has an automatic transmission damage. (strong jerking when switching) Now I have a replacement operation (from accident car) installed, which has exactly the same defect, which switches even worse. When starting up I always think, someone bangs on it at the back. I am with my nerves at the end. And having the transmission repaired by far exceeds the value of the car, since nobody does that appear under 1000 €. In this condition I can d I don’t understand why there’s hardly any way to get the gearbox repaired cheaply. The car has an individual value for me. I feel abandoned by Ford because they can’t do anything, they say. (except to offer a gearbox for 3000 €) The automatic transmissions are just broken from 80,000. The car doesn’t have a 92,000 runte r. I can buy a horse with a broken leg. I think that’s a joke to the consumer! Greetings, amie
