Ford injector nozzles always last till the lifespan of the vehicles, because they have durable inbuilt electromagnetic coils.

Electronic throttle assembly controls only the volume of air induced into the engine for the functions of starting, idle, acceleration and cruising of the vehicle.

Ford (pcm) powertrain control module enhance the best starting system at cold through the management of input information from well to do sensors.

I need ur professional advise , i am plannin on getting a ford focus 1998 model. Kindly help shed light on its fuel consumption level, engine size and availability of spare parts. I live in osogbo

Focus 98 is highly fuel economical, 1.8 and 2.0lit 4 cylinder engine with following characteristics : low fuel consumption, better power output, simple electronic system, durable suspension etc it's a car I can guarantee.

Advance track on Ford is absolutely managed by the ABS/VSC control unit.

Generator motor of Ford hybrids is excellent, is very durable and doesn't drain the battery.

When engine overheats, it's not advisable to start it until it cools down.

Happy celebration to all nairalander

Hi. I need some candid opinion. I'm thinking of a Ford escape 2005 or 06. It's a leap for me from Toyota is it a good choice I mean maintenance wise?

Ford escape 2005/2006 is extremely good. Maintenance wise : you are free from frequent suspension problems but only routine service. Avoid unskilled auto electrician which could damage the PCM. Once the 02 sensors are OK, it economies fuel.

Good evening I have an issue with my ford mondeo 03, the water reservoir gets so hot and the temperature rises..... what could possibly cause this? Thermostat, water pump?

It's mandatory that the reservoir get hot at engine operating temperature. You will need to confirm the following as leverage to tell you the actual problem: (1)position of temp Gauge, (2)level of water in reservoir, (3)upper radiator hose hard or soft, look warm or hot when engine temperature is high, (4)water gushing out at what temp of the engine, (5)any traces of water leak, (6)cooling fans operating at low and high speed.

This one ure praising ford how about the notorious power transfer unit and transmission problem of 2008 Ford Edge. Also how about d availability of Ford spare parts in Nigeria.

These are information I've repeatedly explain, we need to erase our old believe on Ford. The power Unit won't go bad once you don't interrupt it's electrical /electronic system. If the transmission is faulty, find out from the history of the vehicle, the specifications must have been violated. Check Nigeria market now and confirm that the parts are very numerous.

I can't believe that I'm reading someone praising POS Ford products.

You can use any brake pad on your Ford, it doesn't have to be Motorcraft. You can use any brand of oil on your Ford as long as it meets the specification set out by Ford motors.

Your warranty can never be denied because you did not use Motorcraft, it's a federal US law for all automakers.

You positively said that part/lubricants set out by Ford motors corporation US, thanks for that you paragraph. You have an assignment to carry out, find out which parts/lubricants producer set out by Ford motors corporation and cogently approved from which ever media you wish and share with us on nairaland.

Hi Femtopford, I am planning on buying a Ford windstar 2003 lx do u advice me to go for it? Please advise

Windstar 03 is very good, but a demerit in a remote area where the roads are very bad because, Windstar is low on the ground, has long wheel base and isn't four wheel drive. Aside that, the technology is ok

Radiator reservoir pressure cap should be checked for good condition to avoid unnecessary overheating and also prevent leakage.

Thanks I'm grateful

It's not advisable to remove thermostat, because the engine will run cooler than the operating temperature, since it's heat engine, temperature information to the PCM changes as a result alter it's combustion process even engine wear faster.

Ford Explorer 2011-2014 use the application of vct to enhance high compression ratio for better power output at low fuel consumption.

The vct assembly could give a terrible cracking sound at cold starting if it's damage due to the use of wrong oil.

You can easily pick Ford escape as your choice, the technology shouldn't be threatened. All spare parts are available and easily fix. In a nut shell, it's 100% Mazda tribute.

Ford escape is reliable for the average, the Brake system is good, for instance the Brake pads last longer before fading.

Ford f150 engine is very reliable, better performance even for Agricultural activities.

Ford trucks : expedition, f-series, E-series, Explorer, mountaineer, navigator, aviator, Mark etc. The thought of high fuel consumption is nullified, it's been taken care of by multiplex electronic injection system.

Kit and kin getting use to Ford, parts available and prices reducing.

Ford escape 2002-2010 3.0/2.0lits is very portable, service/repair affordable and fuel economical.

Ford Ranger is very rigid, even though the body become worst, you will still see it cruising on the road.

Thanks
