  • Ford Transit mk2 3,5t RV or car registration tax & insurance

    Questions and problems Insurance: Actually wanted to allow my 30-year-old converted transit mk2 as a camper but now he does not have the specified standing height, which could become a disaster for me. Can one allow such a transit as a passenger car? those of the insurance can not allegedly calculate it as a passenger car. Tax: The tax would be less expensive without Euronorm as a camper. After the Tüv it should be made suitable Euro1, then the passenger car tax would be cheaper. According to Internet: Passenger car Lk w Euro0 608€ 480€ without cat petrol Euro1 363€ 480€ Euro2 176€ 320€ In transit a 2.4 litre V6 petrol engine with g-cat was installed. efi v6 Only for the registration of the engine without the Euronorm the Tüv already required an exhaust gas report. In the demand report I also thought to get the Euro1, but stupid cheap universal catalysts made me a dash through the bill. Before the test, the engine had mastered the Au values of the donor vehicle. al a Euronorm can be installed calmly 9/10 cheaper kats, because the Au limits are so high. In a new exhaust gas report I hope to get a suitable emission key, with which hopefully more accurate results. By color holes and Pi-pa-po no hkenmark possible.

  • Now set valves?

    Hello, again a question about the popular valve theme. I have a MK4 (JAS) with the sewing machine (1.3 liters, 50 hp). It is now 10 years and has 170000 km down. It is to be driven at least 2-3 years. So far NEVER the valves have been adjusted. He still drives quite neatly (for 50 hp stop) and does not go too far. He is also not driven to the stop, even hardly on short distances. Now the question: Is it worth a visit? I have heard that the valves have changed again after a few thousand kilometers anyway. I am insecure, the car is cared for in itself, but I have only thought about the valves since I read so much about it here in the forum. Thanks and greeting, Hans

  • Help me FoFi III Built 94 never goes to

    Hello, unfortunately today already again has posts, because my Fiesta GFJ 1.1 just went out this morning and doesn’t start any more. At the start he tries to start but immediately goes off again. Was on the highway on Sunday and have kicked him once properly, since he has turned in the idling improbably high so that man thinks the engine flies right around my ears. Furthermore, he has totally started stuttering in the cold condition while driving. I L F E !!!!

  • Escort Mysterious Problem

    Hello. I have the following problem with my Escort Cabrio andzwas every time the car is cold and you want to go or start the car stutters and it sounds like the car has misigned. So that’s pretty funny when you give gas and want to start the car doesn’t come first and at some point the speed goes up and you can drive… I’m already disfiguring. I’ve already installed new platinum spark plugs from Motorcraft, new ignition cables installed by Motorcraft, new ignition distributor installed, new flow meters installed, new throttle valves installed, new idle controller installed, even the temperature sensor in the thermostat or on the thermostat housing I changed because I read what has to do with the cold running regulator. And I replaced all the other sensors that are responsible for the cold running. I also looked at vacuum hose is also healing and builds pressure. Petrol filter is also a new one under and petrol comes in enough, because when the car gets warm, it is a good smell. Oil change was also done recently… Achja & compression also builds the car very well between 9-10 bar.. Now I am also at the end & don’t know any further. I have read one thing and this was what has to do with the tooth grate that the Vllt skipped & the car or the engine thereby unevenly smells or something like that… Well, I hope that I can continue tips would be enough for me =) Lg, Dennis

  • 1.8 TD (BJ. 97) Tuner – Very tough start

    Hello you love, and indeed I have already asked in another forum for help but since we are probably now at a point where nobody knows anymore because I thought I tried it here again maybe comes a new thought or the like. And I have already several problems, because my escort always makes problems for a few weeks at the cold start again, he orgs without end and so after determined 10 seconds he makes then the first “start cough” un d then you can see how slowly one cylinder ignites after another and then it runs slowly round, but the whole takes quite a while, and until it runs round, it squirts (white) extremely. I can achieve the round running faster, if I give a little bit of gas in idle, then it takes much less time as in stationary gas. Glow candles I replaced last weekend with Beru candles. Since the question came how much tension because on the glow candles I have the measured times and achieved the following result: glow candle 1 10,30 V glow candle 2 10,90 V glow candle 3 10,80 V glow candle 4 10,50 V I tested the glow candles from left to right. Since the Yes is perfectly fine, I also checked the battery immediately, this one has in the rest mode (if only radio is running and nothing else) around the 12,5 V then I have also seen how much it loses during the pre-glow and the start, I have measured this also and there again this e Results achieved: Battery in the ”Quiet mode” 12,73 V battery after the pre-glow 12,43 V battery after the start 10,43 V So this shows me that the battery is perfectly in order and since the glow plugs are perfectly in order I don’t know anymore. Oil is still 10w40 but soon will change in 5w40. But don’t think it’s just because of it! Greeting and thanks in advance Tobi

  • Hello!

    Hello! Have an urgent question and indeed, a colleague of mine sold his car 6-8 weeks ago (because of unemployment), now came the buyer and says he wants to have the money again because allegedly an engine damage would be of which the seller did not know how to behave there!? Kaufvetrag was made the people also made test drive and the car ran without problems In the purchase contract is also bought as seen and so on. so in my opinion the buyer can not demand anything above all he has been on the road with it!? Or am I wrong informed? Please for quick help Thanks in front of the jet bitch

  • Cylinder 3 is not running.

    Hello escort driver, I have the problem that with my Escort the 3rd cylinder does not run. In the stand everything viebrates and while the ride is quiet. Spark plugs and ignition cables have come new. If I mark off the plug at the injection system nothing happens. If I mark off the plug at the ignition distributor of course the engine runs out. Zündfunken has it. Does someone have an idea would be really grateful if you could help me. Greeting Ghia02 PS: Is the 1.6er with 90 HP MK7 Or could it a find another cylinder to be the master at the FfH said it’s the 3rd I don’t know how he knows it. He didn’t measure anything big so no compression.

  • MK6 Electronic problems

    Ford the do what, only what ? After I was now proud owner of an Escorts MK4 Cabrios and an Mk5 Fliesheck , both quite problem-free , I am now owner of an Mk6 and that has problems ! Actually it is funny I always have something to look at when driving times the airbag lamp flashes funny in front of it , sometimes the handbrake indicator is on and then again the control light from the fog lamp is pretty yellow at blinking That when braking sometimes the light is already beka nnt. By the way, I can turn on the outdoor lighting, which also goes on, unfortunately only when the rotary switch is activated. If I turn on the light and the car off, then the light also goes off. Hello where is my standing? If the switch from the fog back light is on again and I press the then go on the headlights but with light to the key then there is wonderful calmness ? Strangely the MK5 and I believe also the convertible gave then i Any sound of itself that the light is still on, this model is not. And I have ventilated the riddle of the red self-built switch. Ventilated in the truest sense of the word because with it the fan goes on and indeed at stage 3. So if I showered before driving I can save myself the hair dryer Oh yes the amature lighting does not work or only very dark where is this rotary switch to dim ??? Oh sometimes the car goes off at the traffic light, if it is cold but gleic h again and I remember to keep it a bit idle at speeds then it works as well. And in view of these problems I am no longer angry about the lack of acceleration or the high consumption, fits already Hab the car now 2 weeks have paid about 400€ for repairs , oil ect. and now stand there. In between: All in all, if I had known before what was with the car and that I could have put on another 400€ I would probably have a Mondeo MK2 too but now it’s like it is, I have this sweetheart “on the neck” and now ? I often read about problems with the fuse box, so the new ? And since this one with many cars of this model certainly doesn’t make any used problems, or ? 200€ costs the och no vielicht knows who another solution Gruss Karilja PS: To Escort’s honorary rescue the car drives well from A to B and I am all the time where I have it not even lying level
