I can't believe that Ford's are 'total pieces of shit' just because his Focus needs a coolant temp. sensor.

If your trained by Ford you would of worked for me GVK, as the only Ford Training Center in the North West is Blackpool...Yes people thats where i am.

If you're annoyed already about this, you'll be REALLY pissed off when you find out what's required to fit the sensor on your 1800 Zetec.

BTW, Ford also have a training centre in Daventry.

That is true, i should know, but the syllabus of training a Ford Intern does not include rigorous examination of each and every engine...

Dont trust education for answers unless you have knowledge yourself to what your getting into.

Basically a HND in Ford is worth shit.

I should know the location but i dont. This seems very low reverting to a forum for an answer for such a simple thing.

As ive been very wrong in the way ive approached this then i understand i wont get an answer. Though one person earlier did make a reasonable comment.

Enjoy Ford until you experience Vauxhall. This 1.8i 16V will be bricked tomorrow due to a sensor, gladly. Im sure id get more for the lights than the car.

Thanks for your help

So Mr Zetec, would you like the Google image of your "car" you have listed which breaches Data Protection? As its not yours lol:

I can provide the link asap

List your own cars and stop being fakes....This is what makes me not trust "Forums" full of shite, just like the Ford i own.

Vauxhall are wonderfully with their amazing can bus etc. but then again they did have to buy a part of fiat to get the rights to use the 1910 cc Diesel engines along with the 1300 diesels.
Then you have the insignia. A car that has more recalls than anything else.

Besides, there's no such thing as Vauxhall. They're General Motors engines in Opel bodies. And compared to Ford, they're a bugger to work on, tool access usually being the biggest problem. You know how you want a nut undone, and on a ford there's a hole for your socket to go through - vauxhall don't do that.

Having said that, I absolutely loved my Cavvie SRi. 130mph, how much fun do you want for Ł200 out of the Exchange & Mart? Of course, i had to put up with the Escort brigade who would brag of their 75mph in second gear. But i never found it to be slow, and funnilly enough, it never broke down either. Except for the fuel pump. The fuel injection system was simple and reliable. Maybe he has a point?

I wish i could get the same performance from my Sierra now. If i'm totally honest, it runs badly, and shows it's age horribly. But ... it's what i got, and i love it.

So cube your focus then, go and buy yourself a Vectra. And i bet it'll be silver, too. Boring.

This guy is an absolute arsehole.

If your a teacher for ford, then you must be some kind of dickhead if you can't even work out where a sensor is.




Just to end this ill give you the answer.


It's behind the dash board.

Now kindly go away.

Thanksn
