Mine was more like this, our european escorts where a little different. This was like my mk2 till i killed it then my mate got a mk3.



Mk3 escort...



I remember once we had smoke coming thro the air vents when i was racing about with 4 mates in the car !!! Pulled over and took the key out the ignition but it was still running, we ran away till it stopped cos we thought it was going to blow. It didnt, it just stopped itself after 30secs or so then it started right back up and ran fine again once it cooled down  :D. We were only 17-18 and i didmt even have a license at the time.


Back to the original topic.....



Just checked my plug and its insulator looks pure white to me, cant see any brown or tan on it  :o

Guess Leo Vince website was wrong and i do need to rejet? Im rejetting later today up one size 1st to an 84 to see what that gives me.. I knew if felt a little lean when riding, i was sure of it, just been sidetracked with the sticky brake piston ive had.
Chaos is my co-pilot.

The Ford Escort was very popular before, especially the Brenda and the RS2000. Older folks had the Cortina.
