thats my old sandpiper fiesta! up in runcorn now i think! damn i miss that car

Ill be there!

Hi guys. Iv been trying to find this out but where i look tells diffrent things. What litre petrol tank is a mk1 fiesta sandpiper? 25 pound seems to fill it up? And it seems to go down really quick on the gauge. But the man i work with says its got to be atleast 45 L tank? What means i should still have atleast 25 quid in there after iv done the 25 quid that i originally put in? Thanks, Joe.

Thanks for the fast reply! Okay Ill check out the haynes manual, sure there will be loads on Ebay! I will upload some photos tomorow or on the weekend, I have uploaded 1 photo of the whole car outside my house before! But ill get some proper ones and put them on here!

Hello! Iv got a mk1 fiesta sandpiper, And i just want to learn more about the car and the engine! Id love to be able to work on it by myself but I dont know what Im doing and nobody I know can teach me! Does anyone know somewhere with videos or stuff so I can learn about it? I need to put a new carb on as the one i have is deadddd, So replacing that could be a start! Thanks, Joe.

Many thanks for helping me out with my mk1 fiesta! Shes running like a dream now and your magic fingers are still working! If anyone needs help on any car issues I would not hesitate in giving ashton mobile services a call! Great service, And a great price! Thanks again, Joe

Also, Does anybody know where I can get a new single webber choke?

Hi. I have a mk1 fiesta 1.1 and its running really rough, as far as iv been advised its a carb problem and i have a single choke webber. For example when I was sitting at the lights on my way home i kept stalling! And i feel like i have to sit there and listen to the revs to make sure i dont stall! Does anyone know of a mobile service in surrey area, i live in Sutton in London? As i really want it fixed! Thanks! Joe.

Thats what you call sexy!

I got it off one of my mums mates, right touch i got it for 200 quid! only thing is its £3000 to insure it! But im going to try that quinn direct thanks for that

One thing it does need, is a oldskoolford sticker, going to buy one

My dad knows alot about old skool fords as his big into them aswell, So he can help me along the way.. I like the look of Mini Lights, and the supersport wheels! I was going to buy some but i need to do some saving up!

thanks! well im 17, and im trying to get insurance on it at a decent price! Most qotes are £3000!!! So i cant do anything to it performance wise, not untill 2 or 3 years! I only got intrested into cars a few months ago so i dont know much about them so im still learning! What do you think i could do??
