my mate had this problem, he just cleaned all the connections + fuses & there connections & the problem went away... but im not says that will cure all cases???

ive still got lots to do m8. How did you pay and ill check to see if its going to be my next batch. hi, i payed via paypal....5 tickects - 1 pass

still waiting for myn

i take it that the 12.50 tickets in the banner are to get u into the show , instead of paying 17.00 on the day, am i correct in this?

cjay2004 , 1 stand pass please

i would say drum as there is no obvious way of fixing the caliper on

if u mean the wires, 1 goes to neg on coil, 1 goes to positive on coil, normally BROWN to earth?? need a pic to be 100% though

could it be a service shell???

further apart im affraid... also u`ll need to move the strut tops i would imagine..

as far as i know YES, but these can still be bought new from ford

i guess ur converting from mk2 to mk1 then??? if not mk2 estate wings are obsolete, and are not being remade as far as i know ......

how come u didnt just cut the rod & rod ends in the end???

Thanks for your post cjay, so I have to scrap the idea of increasing the thread. By 'I had to cut the track rod end', do you mean the track rod? As i cannot understand how cutting the track rod end will make it shorter.. hi, yeh sorry , u got to cut both, so if u need 20mm, i`d cut 10mm of the track rod, & 10mm of the track rod end, ... also when u cut the track rod leave the lock nut on so after its cut u can wind this off and it will leave the treads cleaner....

i know about this as i`ve been down this road, basicly u cannot extend the treaded bit as the process in which the treads are made is not that of a tap n die method.... i had to cut the TRE down, this is ok as i waz advized as long as its 1/4 more than the thead thinkness itself (eg 16mm thread u need 20mm+ on the TRE...)if that makes sence... the alturnatave is to have a shorter track rod fitted from a different steering rack , as there only held on by a small amount of thread at the boot end... its not an easy solution , but that waz my options when i needed similer stuff done to my rack... hope this helps you...

cortina mk4/5 are deffo same as thats what i got on my mk2 escort fiesta mk1, not sure, as some fiestas didnt have an electric washer jet?

yes it does by the looks of it, the only one u dont get is the power valve gasket(3 leaf clover shaped) & dont worry there easy to service

if its like a 1600 escort mount they will unscrew off the mount. but if not the heat from welding would cause it to prob fall off..

this is the best 1 i got of myn atm?? whats the reason?????????

i think its slowly being restored, as 4 the reg , it wont show up on dvla as its a false plate

hi all, i have been offered 2 mk1 capri`s, both 1600xl`s 1 is in decent condition only needing some minor repairs but not been used for some time... the other is rottern and is only usefull as spares (but is a complete car) neither cars are M.O.T`d or taxed? any idea`s on what there worth??

what is it u wanna know & all depends what engine u want in it??? im half way through building myn:)

i though all parts could be sold , but the body has to be crushed? thats what the scrappy down my way does?? they just had in an 1966 moggie van? how sad is that? & im not a fan off them but such a shame??

do u have any pics of the - Mk1 Fiesta (RWD conv.) ???

what do we think to these??? http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/GARAGE-DOOR-BOLTS ... 7C294%3A50 look like they would be hard to get past once fitted ?????????
