MK6 escort si 1.8 zetec power loss
I have purchased a new car, a mk6 1996 escort 1.8 si zetec.
The problem is that there seems to be a complete lack of power with foot right down on the pedal
I have changed the air flow meter and serviced the car and replaced the HT leads (with 8mm silicone megaleads) but it is frankly slow. (A fiesta zetec s completely left me standing when my car has a supposed 0-60 of 9.2 secs)
Do you have any ideas on what the problem maybe?
It's a little frustrating

Yes well done i know they aren't the fastest cars around,
but that doesn't change the fact there is a lack of power i would not of posted otherwise.
Still the plug in will tell me more tomorrow
