Default Muppet Forum Question.

Ive just come across this "forum" which i hate to use. Best of asking the professionals than reverting to these things.....

If you answer than cheers, if not ill get the answer anyway, from a trusted source than the net.

Ive a 1.8 16V Ford Focus 1999...wish id never bought the damn piece of shite...i will never buy a Ford ever again, total pieces of shit. Im a Vauxhall Guy, never break and plenty of instant power even if its a 1.0i 12v


Right ill get to the point.

Just trying to find the Coolant sensor location, looked around and what ive read on the "Forums"....God never trust one single forum, no matter what your questioning. Should be between 2-3rd spark plug...Well its not.

Ford Focus 1999 1.8 16V Coolant Sensor Location. Unknown.

"Why have i reverted to the lamest of information"

Forums do NOT have an answer....YES im pissed off sorry.

You took the time to join a forum, just to make yourself out to sound like a complete bellend?

Why??

Well i don't use "Forums", if your going to get an answer its not from here obviously, or any "Forum", these things are outdated, but ive taken the last steps to ask on this to see the laughable answers.

Bellend, yeah ive got one.

Do you have an answer ?

Yes i dont use these things as they are full off "Want to be Mechanics and people who "Think they know", in all aspects.

So i need to be proved wrong.

Do you have the answer, Mr?

All i want is a straight answer. 1. Location of Sensor. 2 I know its under the bonnet 3. Never use a forum.

Im really sorry but this using a forum is like me asking a Newsagent if they can provide me with a Turbo lol

Have i offended your professional expertise?

Im sure you can help so who is being un-polite. Ive been on many many forums and tired of the bullshit answers from people who want to be a professional.

Just a plain simple answer, location thats all. NO bullshit that you get on ALL forums.

God wheres my mechanic when i need one...QUALIFIED professionally. Chavs

Maybe if you asked nicely you'd get the write answer. There are lots of people on here that's know what there talking about and would happily give you the answer if you asked them with some manors.

Yea, 1.0l 12v's are world renowned for their power. As for 'never break' my mates Corsa, which was bought brand new, is on it's 3rd engine in 15k miles, and they've vowed to never go near a Vauxhall again.

This forum is has some very knowledgeable people on it, that know more about cars than you, or your mechanic, could ever dream of, but I doubt they'll help you with an attitude problem like yours. All this crying over the coolant temp. sensor on a Focus, deary me.

No driver could ever make a 1.0l Vauxhall powerful, that's a statement of fact.

Also the coolant temperature sensor isn't in the head on 1.8's, it's..............somewhere else.

Or maybe I'm lying and it is in the head, just not between the plugs, which is actually it's location in a Zetec SE engine.

Thanks for the mystical reply Zetec-Sam...better get my torch out lol

As for the 1.0i 12v, i had one and with its 54BHP it pisses over a 1.4, shitty as it may be mate

Thing in question is ive a 1.8V 16V Zetec Ford Focus and to work on it is a f-in pile of shite...Just want the location of the Engine/Coolant Sensor so i can replace it. Yeah plenty of power but Ford is shite from my point of view and when ive changed this sensor im going back to Vauxhall.

54BHP, impressive.

Ford Focus' are one of the best hatchbacks you can buy, they're reliable and handle well, and have won loads of awards. They're also very easy to get parts for and work on...

Suggest you jog on and ask your "trusted source"





Fact is, if you hate forums sooooo much and could get the needed info from the above 'source'......... Why come on here at all?



I have a feeling your a bored kid off school holidays looking to wind people up.












But if your car is real and this is actually legit (cock), then I hope it blows up
