Default Why is it....

The RS Turbo section is full of post's always saying "help, wont start" or "fuel problem help" etc etc...


Not all escorts can be as unreliable as mine.... surely

the most exciting part about owning a ford is when you get in and turn the key whilst simultaneously praying it will run

thing is!!!! you lads f---k about with them to much more boost etc etc change this, alter that ----it was running great till i--------------sound familier ?????
then everyone is expected to sort it out for you am i right?? i dont know how many can read on this site but not a lot want to look through a manual- just let every f---r do it for you!!! ,just sit back,
and before you say it yes it is a forum for owners i know that but some of you must spent hours trying to sort out things that are relly scoolboy stuff really (not getting at you mate just stating facts that if its running right --leave it alone unless you have the knowledge to recover.-FIN.
